I recently had a customer who wanted me to weave her a solid black rayon chenille scarf in a specific size. No problem. As usual, I warped for three scarves. I wove my customer’s solid black, plus another solid black, since I had no more of them in stock.<\/p>\n

I had another idea for the third scarf. I so love the handwoven shawls I’ve made rayon chenille rainbows,<\/a> I thought I’d try a different twist. I’d use the same rainbow concept, but switch the colors along the length of the scarf instead of across the width, like the shawls.<\/p>\n

\"handwoven<\/a><\/p>\n

Hmph. There’s no comparison. The shawls are so striking, so beautiful, so rich. The scarf? It’s ok. Period. I would not do this again, either in rayon chenille or another fiber. It just doesn’t send me.<\/p>\n

Live and learn. As long as I keep learning, and remembering, it’s all good.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
