Description

Bamboo shawl designed by Robin Lynde and published in Handwoven, November/December 2006
Using a familiar weave structure like shadow weave with a new yarn can add excitement to any project. Bambu 7 is a multistrand 100% bamboo yarn comparable in size to 5/2 pearl cotton. It has a wonderfully soft and drapable hand, comes in over 100 colors, and is just the right weight for a shawl. When the weather gets cooler, you’ll love its wrap-around warmth. Structure: Shadow weave. Equipment: 4-shaft loom: 25 weaving width; 10 or 15-dent reed, 2 shuttles; fringe twister (optional). Finished Dimensions: One shawl 21.5 by 65 plus 6 fringe at each end. Yarns: 100% bamboo yarn (2,100 yd/lb, Bambu 7, Cotton Clouds), 850 yd each Borage and Lime. Warp Ends: 337 (alternating 1 Borage 1 Lime, beginning and ending with Borage). Warp Length: 2.75 yd (allows 4 for take-up, 25 for loom waste; loom waste includes fringe). Setts: EPI: 15. PPI: 15. Width in the Reed: 24.5. Take up and Shrinkage: 13% in width, 8% in length.
