Mousse Weaving Kit – Soft and Airy Scarf – Shaft Loom
An easy and comforting weaving kit to create a warm, soft, and airy scarf on a shaft loom, using a carefully selected merino and bouclé nylon yarn.
Detailed description
The Mousse Weaving Kit – Shaft Loom is designed as a simple, enjoyable, and rewarding project, perfect for discovering or revisiting weaving on a shaft loom. The yarn combines the natural softness of fine merino with the light structure of nylon, creating a textile that is warm, fluffy, and pleasantly airy.
Its composition — 85% fine merino (22 microns) and 15% very soft nylon — provides an excellent balance of comfort, lightness, and durability. The bouclé texture naturally adds volume and a subtle halo to the fabric, without requiring complex techniques or advanced tension control.
This project is ideal as a first project on a shaft loom, as well as a relaxing weave for experienced weavers looking for a soothing and quickly wearable result.
