A sneak peak of my double wide blanket



I think it looks quite pretty. 

Also in between all this and before I started this project, I am going to New Zealand soon on a one weeks holiday first time to new zealand. So because its going to be so bloody freezing and I am a Queenslander through and through I thought I better weave that alpaca scarf and knit that beanie I have been putting off .
Here is the scarf and beanie all knitted and woven in handspun natural colours of Alpaca.

This yarn was made from my first spinning experience and so is a little let me say textured but still beautiful and unique.



I used Patons Dreamtime merino for the warp and all handspun alpaca for the weft. It is 
simply done in plain weave on the rigid heddle.



All Knitted in the same alpaca used for weaving. 
I used a Noro knitting pattern but modified it to suit me and my handspun alpaca.
