Scarf #2


Almost all the wool is used up; less than a bobbin full of white left after the expected loom wastage.  The second scarf turned out about 6 inches longer - it wasn't due to, as I had a 'short loop' of warp connected by string to equal the length of the others (I'm not sure what I did to end up with one loop (two warp strands) shorter than the rest). That loop would not go through the heddles, so was the hard stop I expected, but in the end I cut the loop and tied on some extensions and was able to weave for a further 5+ inches (I just had to slip the knot through the heddle eye - which wasn't a problem).
Both scarves
The loom is now ready for the CF scarves after a quick wipe down/dust.
