Osiris scarf weaving kit in baby alpaca silk linen – rigid heddle loom
A soft and elegant weaving kit designed to create two lightweight and comfortable scarves, woven on a rigid heddle loom using a refined baby alpaca, silk, and linen blend.
Detailed description
The Osiris weaving kit allows you to weave two scarves, with finished dimensions after wet finishing of approximately 8 in x 60 in, excluding fringe. This is an accessible and rewarding project, ideal for learning or enjoying scarf weaving on a rigid heddle loom.
The scarves are woven using Tisse et File baby alpaca silk linen yarn, a balanced blend that combines the softness and gentle warmth of baby alpaca, the smoothness and subtle sheen of silk, and the structure and freshness of linen. This combination produces a supple fabric with a lively texture that remains comfortable and easy to wear.
The contrast between the natural skein and the hand-dyed skein creates subtle visual interest while maintaining a refined and understated look. The project was designed to be straightforward, without technical complexity, while still delivering an elegant and satisfying result.
