Blue Skies Eleganza Wrap

https://www.etsy.com/listing/113747093/blue-skies-a-eleganza-wrap

Eleganzas are made from the thrums or weaving scraps

 left over from a wrap or scarf. When I collect enough for

 an Eleganza Scarf, which may be from three or more scarves

 and may take months to acquire. Each Eleganza is therefore

 individual and made one at a time.

This piece has a lace corner and is very textured.

Navy Blue Eleganza Scarf

Jackson Pollock

I love Jackson Pollock, he said, 'I'm just painting!'  Meaning he was not trying to interpret any particular style, just painting what he felt like!!  This is how I weave, it just comes out...
