I recently created a scarf that is loosely inspired by a sunset at the beach. The luxurious time to simply sit and watch the beauty that nature has to offer. Feel free to use the pattern as is or adjust to your own purposes! Enjoy!
The foundation of all weaving is a simple over/under structure. Vertical yarns (warp) are held in place and then horizontal strands (weft) are woven through them in an over/under pattern.
In this picture, notice how the white strands alternate going over and under each strand. In this weaving, that basic (plain weave) structure is kept the same but the colors are changed in a pattern to produce a unique effect (color and weave).
Creating a pattern can be done from simply changing color order in the warp or the weft. Patterns can also be created from changing the over/under pattern. For example, instead of going over and under each thread, when a weaver goes over and under two threads together, this produces twill.
Every weaving builds from that very basic premise!
