Weld Waterlip Scarf

Handwoven scarf in a soft grey Shetland wool with natural dyed patterning

This scarf has been handwoven by Jade Ogden in Somerset, using local regeneratively farmed sheep wool from high on the Mendip Hills, less than 10 miles from the loom. Some of the wool has been hand dyed with wild-foraged weld. 

This textile has been slowly handcrafted on a table loom (which you can see in one of the images) - each warp thread has been passed through the string heddles, one-by-one, by hand. It is a 'soil-to-soil' textile, due to being crafted from pure natural materials, at the end of its long life it can be returned to nourish the earth via the compost heap.
