HELLO - Welcome to my shop selling all things created and handwoven by me. Everything individually created with care and a passion for the handmade ethic.
If you are looking for a shawl or scarf that is individually designed, carefully handwoven, and just a little bit different, you have come to the right place. My hope is that you will find my work an antidote to cheap, exploitative mass production and my aim is to offer beautifully designed, quality pieces that you won't find anywhere else. Absolutely unique.
Weaving is my passion and each item I create is carefully designed from start to finish, some items taking many, many hours to complete.
All the scarves and shawls are woven on an 8 shaft floor loom. My preference is for natural fibres, especially silk, but I also use cashmere, alpaca, linen and cotton. Sometimes the yarn is handspun by me and I dye most of the silk myself. with either commercial dyes or natural dyes.
If you see a design you like but would prefer different colours, please contact me I will be happy to weave something specially for you.
If you are new to Etsy the following link will guide you through the buying procedure:

5 out of 5 starsThe colors are so vibrant and the scarf is so soft. I am very happy. Gill is a pleasure to work with and so helpful and accommodating. It was wonderful to have a scarf designed with colors from my sister’s artwork.
