And more Deflected Double Weave

Well hello blog, its been a year I think.  
I have finally worked out why I don't blog much.  I can't get the photos from my phone to the blog in any easy way.  Case in point, these photos only showed one side revealling about one third of a scarf and I don't seem to be able to shift them to get them in order.

 Most of my warps are hand painted and steamed to set the colour.  In my mind each one is a work of art.   The Kakapo scarves are nearer the end of this post. 

 

Scarves reflecting the New Zealand native bird, the Tui, woven in Deflected Double Weave using my name as the base of the original design.

 
Scarf, again woven in DDW, reflecting the blooms of the Puriri tree which can vary in colour from pale pale pink to deep wine.
                                             
 
Kakapo scarves in lovely shades of olive greens.
 
 
 
A cowl in Puriri shades.
Apologies for the messy post.  It's rather exciting seeing work I did 12 months ago, inspiring even.
