Weave a Striking Autumnal Tartan Scarf in Green & Mustard Yellow British Wool - Fully Assembled Kit, Made in the UK
Learn to weave a striking green and mustard yellow tartan tweed scarf with this all-inclusive rigid heddle loom kit. British wool yarn, a fully assembled loom, and all accessories and instructions included - beginner-friendly, made in the UK.
The Green and Mustard Colourway
Green and mustard yellow is the most autumnal colourway in the TabbyandTweed range - warm, earthy, and rooted in British countryside textile tradition. Where the deep forest green and rich mustard yellow cross in the tartan pattern, they produce a warm mid-tone that gives the scarf its characteristic tweed-like depth. This is a colourway for buyers who want a scarf with a natural, countrified character rather than a bold contemporary statement.
What is Tartan Tweed?
The “tartan tweed” character of this scarf comes from the combination of a classic tartan colour sequence - green and mustard alternating symmetrically in both warp and weft - woven in a robust British wool that has the warmth and texture associated with traditional British tweed cloth. The result is a tartan with the weight and feel of a real tweed scarf, rather than a lightweight fashion piece.
