Sunčano vrijeme, sunčani šal - Sunny weather, sunny scarf

Za vikend nisam tkala. Dok se tkalački stan odmarao primila sam se kolovrata napokon isprela štrenicu vune, jedne od onih za koju je prva nit bila još davno gotova, i čekala da ispredem još jednu nit i to sve spojim. Dok to čeka na pranje i sušenje, odlučila sam napraviti nešto sa ogromnom, podebljom vunom koja već neko vrijeme čeka da bude upotrebljena, i tako je nastao ovaj lijepi šal. Kako su boje sunčane i vesele, odlučila sam izmiješati debelu nit sa dvije različite narandžaste vune (alpaka kupljena, i prastara merino narandžasto malo klupko) u osnovu, a za potku uzeti samo tu deblju šarenu. Bez ikakvog kompliciranog uzorka, samo najobičnije ravno, "krivo-pravo" i ispalo je super. Šal je bio gotov za nevjerojatnih sat i malo vremena, iako je preko 2 metra dužine, no debljina vune je stvarno pomogla.

I did not weave last weekend. While the loom was taking a break, I have finally done some spinning and made a ball of yarn. The first part for it was already done long ago and had been waiting until I put my act together and make another one. Before I get it washed and dried, here are the samples of the latest work. Happy, colorful, sunny, orange scarf. No pattern, only color play, plain weave. Since the colors have been so nice, I decided to mix the thicker thread with two thinner orange shades (one home spun merino, the other alpaca) in the warp, and take only the thick thread for the weft. The scarf was finished quickly, a bit over an hour although it is over 2 meter long, but the thickness of the wool had helped a lot.

KOji prekrasan rezultat za tako malo vremena! Prekrasno mi i toplo djeluju te boje, doduše, ja i inače volim zemljane tonove.
