Handwoven Scarf : Beta Collection : Woolen Spring Meadow

GREAT GIFT!

Miranda Caroligne’s latest endeavor is looking to be her forever endeavor! In wee early months of 2024 her long-hibernating dreams of weaving came to fruition with the acquisition of a 45” 4-shaft Oregon Trail floor loom alongside a like-minded teacher and community of weavers.

And she’s hooked!

This scarf is one of her first, and thus is part of her discounted “beta” collection. It is woven entirely from yarns acquired from a friend’s vintage collection, so the fibers are OOAK and a bit of guesswork as to the fiber content! This particular scarf is a combination of cotton and textured wool.

Scarf has been “fulled” - washed, dried and ironed - to fluff & soften the fibers as well as take care of any shrinkage.

Scarf measures 12 1/4 inches wide and approximately 70 long (including fringe)

Miranda Caroligne has been sewing most of her life, turning this past-time into a career after a bicycle accident rendered her unable to continue work as a physical therapist in 2003. Having an understanding of the body and its movements is evident in her clothing. Mostly working in recycled, upcycled, sustainable, reconstructed materials ... she ventured into fleece upon moving to San Francisco and frankly just being cold. In 2006 she began using the fleece offcut from her line of outerwear, as well as the offcut of other sustainably-minded companies. This method is not only Miranda’s favorite from an environmental standpoint, but easily the most fulfilling creatively. Each piece is like a sculpture that comes alive in the process. No two pieces are alike, as the starting materials are all completely unique... just like the wearer.
