Everything You Need to Weave a Stunning Teal and Plum Tartan Scarf
Learn to weave a beautiful teal, plum and pale pink tartan scarf with this all-inclusive rigid heddle loom kit. Fully assembled, beginner-friendly, and made in our UK workshop -everything you need is included.
This kit is the perfect starting point for anyone new to weaving. Whether you are a complete beginner or returning to a craft you have always wanted to explore, the loom arrives fully assembled and ready to use straight out of the box.
The teal, plum and pale pink colourway produces a striking tartan pattern in British wool -a scarf that looks far more complex to make than it actually is. The step-by-step instruction booklet, with images throughout, guides you from setting up and warping the loom through to weaving the tartan and finishing the fringe. A supporting YouTube tutorial from TabbyandTweed covers the warping process in full.
