Preparing for the Mohair Summit
With the Mohair Summit just around the corner we are weaving a few items for our exhibition stand. Veering swiftly towards Karoo colours, but with a punch of lilac and aloe green here and there we hope to come up with something fresh and highly desirable.
Jane is weaving a throw that incorporates stripped cotton, cotton yarn and mohair…it has some texture and a nice repeat and we will put it into production if it comes out well.
We are also going to weave some curtains which capture the clean, open spaces of the Karoo, think tranquil, natural colours with some subtle texture and a soft, gentle repeat. Nothing beats mohair curtains – for their regal, glamorous stance and their superstar performance (they drape beautifully, glow energetically and are completely natural!)
Four student weavers also cut off their first carpet last week, a flatpile mohair in a bright chartreuse was their first effort. It took them about 3 weeks to weave but we are all thrilled with the result.
