On Saturday I gave a demonstration on warping a rigid heddle loom at the Ventura County Handweavers Guild. Then in the afternoon we had a class on using sock yarn to weave scarves that create lovely patterns with almost no effort. The self striping sock yarns make scarves that look like you spent a lot of time planning out a pattern when actually the yarn does all the work for you. How fun is that? Today we spend the day making scarves from everyone's stash yarns. That's always a great time seeing what each person brings and how it can all be put together into beautiful patterns. Sometime starting with a yarn that isn't a favorite can result in something truly wonderful.
