Description

This stashbusting shawl really illustrates that plain weave can be anything but plain. By incorporating colour, different fibres, and other techniques on a plain weave threading you can weave something unique and beautiful.  

 

The techniques used in this project include hemstitch, Brook’s Bouquet, clasped weft, inlay and hemstitch. Introducing multiple techniques as well as multiple fibres can result in changes that add to the originality of the project.
