Bella's Custom Shawls
and Raw Fleeces
All of the
following shawls are examples,
and have gone on to live with their new owners ;-)
"Independence"
-
- this is a hamilton plaid, made from one fleece -
combed top, 2 ply in a plain weave... dyed by hand,
the white was the natural color of the wool,
actually it's more of an ivory...
this shawl was incredibly cozy... $420
"Dee"
- is a double seven foot shawl...
lockspun from a single fleece in two ply natural colored yarn,
no fringe, by request....
twill pattern, very soft and warm - $500
"Clansy"
- is
a seven foot shawl with a tasselled fringe -
two ply, lockspun, from a single naturally colored jacob fleece -
basket weave... very soft and warm.... $250
The shawl on the loom behind
"Clansy" is not finished, but it's a naturally colored lighter weight
seven foot shawl which will have a fringe... it is doublewoven in singles
in a twill weave, so uses approximately 1200 yards of yarn, and is done in
combed top and using the MacAlister tartan pattern
"Eve"
- this shawl was made from combed top,
all the same fleece, but using the natural color and an overdyed yarn as
well...
two plyed, plain weave, checkerboard pattern - 7 ft with a fringe.... $410
"Rainbow"
and "SeaFoam"- these shawls were done using other peoples' yarn, and
were $150....
"Oregon Coast" was
also some one else's handspun, and had a beaded fringe...$150
Each shawl is made to your specifications,
and includes your choice of naturally colored or hand
dyed, handspun wool as well as
design....
each is individually handwoven as well - a one
of a kind gift..... allow 6-8 wks per shawl.
