About

Create an eye-catching scarf on an 8-shaft floor loom. Weaving merino wool in two contrasting colors, you'll be guided through all the steps needed to complete something really impressive, but not all that difficult.

Pinwheel weave, a twill draft, is one the most popular and recognized patterns created by color and weave. Using merino wool, a scrumptious texture is added to the look along with warmth and softness. 

You'll hand stitch the scarf on the loom, keep count of PPI (picks per inch), use two shuttles with two different colors of yarn, and use floating selvages. Once the scarf is complete, you'll full the wool and twist and knot fringes.

Enjoy this beautiful scarf for yourself or as a special gift for someone you love!
