The handspun single has a little more energy than I'd like.

The draft is 168 from A Weaver's book of 8-Shaft Patterns

This looks fantastic. I hope you keep posting more projects just like it!

(Hopefully, by the time you finish weaving, this site will allow for zoom-in photos too.)

This is beautiful!  Help me out here.  Is there one warp color and two weft colors?

Thanks!

 The warp is the same color as one of the colors in the weft-  basically there is a pattern color in the weft (the purple) and a tabby/background color that is the same color as the warp.  You put a shot through of the pattern, then a shot through of tabby.

 I've finished weaving it, but I put enough warp on the loom for three scarves, so it will be a little bit before I pull it off and finish it.  If you want to see a bigger picture, here is a link:  www.flickr.com/photos/cmtigger/3630975228/
