Lyon Handwovens
Meet the Maker
Lyon Handwovens is a fusion of my early love of all things textile, a two decade career in environmental consulting, followed by another decade in quality. This fusion has resulted in narrowing my focus in weaving to using sustainable yarns (wool, cotton, silk) up-cycled materials (VHS tape, commercial carpet yarn, plastic shopping bags) and repurposed fabrics (dead stock and remnants from professional decorators, estate sales, thrift shops). Sustainability, like most things is not static and this journey I'm on will require ongoing adjustments, new paths and learning from others. I hope you'll check in periodically to see how my journey is progressing.
How it’s Made
Woven on my three foot tri-loom, this one-of-a-kind scarf will never be repeated. The flat acrylic yarns used were the last skeins of a discontinued line.
The window-pane pattern is created by not adhering to the continuous weaving method used for most tri-loom projects. Instead, I began by cutting all the yarn to the same length. Then each piece is added by following the right side of the upside down triangle to the top (or bottom) where the yarn takes a sharp right turn and is woven back through the proceeding warp threads, down to the right edge where it's tied off with its neighbor to form the fringe. This method takes longer than the continuous weave method, but opens up new possibilities of pattern that aren't possible with traditional continuous weave.
