This is the second scarf on the same tencel warp from Just Our Yarn (see the Hooks and Eyes scarf for the other one). I wanted to do a networked twill to show off that gorgeous orange. However, that meant re-threading and re-sleying and it also meant I needed more warp threads. I just had enough yarn left to pull out the warp and tie on 32 additional threads, for a total of 224 ends, sett at 30 epi, giving me 7.5". The pattern is a networked twill developed by the group in a class with Bonnie Inouye. I called it the Harmony draft after the host guild, so the scarf is "Harmony Fire". The weft is 10/2 bamboo in eggplant. I took hardly any notes on this so now I don't remember much. Somehow, I have written down that the threading repeat is 36 ends, whereas the entire threading repeat is 60 ends, so I must have used just a portion of the threading but cannot for the life of me remember more than that. Sigh.
Anyway, the scarf is shimmery and very drapey!
