Finally on the loom

The scarf commission is finally on the loom. The hemstitching at 45 threads per inch is excruciating, but now it's over the weaving is going well. After discussions with the client, I added a bit more light blue into the scarf. The warp is now ABAC with A being white silk 30/2, B being a navy blue superwash merino 28/2 and the C being a blueberry superwash merino 28/2. The warp is the same sequence and yarns.
 

From some angles the shiny silk reveals the waves


From other angles the blue wools show the bubbles. The yarns change places on the reverse.

The scarf is more blue than it appears in these photos.
