Pride Scarves!

I really love working on these scarves - initially I was happy to simply work with the interplay of color while challenging myself with a twill pattern to help make the scarves drape better.

I started with Ace Pride, because it's so often overlooked and Ace people are often excluded from queer spaces, despite being queer themselves. This came to me as both obvious enough to those in the know, but subtle enough that those not in the know would simply see something (hopefully) sophisticated.

The Bi flag being only three colors presented a different kind of design challenge but I really like it - it looks less like a plain plaid and more like a tartan. <3

The beautiful pastel number is, of course, the trans pride flag. Somehow, despite being five rows, it still comes out looking more like a tartan and less like a plaid. Once I was satisfied with the color interplay, I began moving into weave structure, interlacing it with different lace structures. I really love working on these, though I only take a few at a time to keep from being burned out. If you have any questions or comments on the items, please feel free to comment! If you'd like to look into a scarf of your own, well....Magic Rabbit Fiber Arts is here.

Mending project: my beloved scarf

It's a pretty holey old scarf, but it's made of such a wonderful textile I'd never throw it away, so I've just decided to mend it.

I started with securing around the hole, with a basic running stich.

Then I simply started to use weaving to make up for the lost textile.

After finishing half of the vertical strings I knotted it at the back side. I have not seen any tutorials how people usually knot the loose string away so I just show you here, how I usually do it.

You just simply knot the thread to a stable older sewing two times.

Then I continued with the vertical part with a different colour.

Next the horizontal red threads.

This is how it looks the finished mending, I choose colours that match with the scarf's stripes so to look nice.
