" QQ's" are the original, overhead poncho style, an easy, slip-on wrap in a diamond shape that is more graceful than a square. The styling is creative: the long edge of one rectangle is seamed to the short end of the other. My "QQR's" are a combo of a quexquemetl and an open ruana, where one seam is left open. This allows for 2 panels to hang down the front, or to throw or twist one side over the opposite shoulder.All are nubby cottons with leno-lace edging and fringe . ![]() ![]() & Quexquemetl Ruanas (Not currently available. ) |

Capes : lightweight cotton, seamed at one shoulder. Rows of leno-lace and added sparkle. This new style can be shifted from side to side, or with fringe pointed down. Versatile and light.

Triangle
Weaving Tri-Weaves are finger-picked
on various-sized frame looms, incorporating some of the techniques I
use on the harness loom, such as the open leno-lace. Smaller frames
(4 ft.) give smaller scarves (see scarf pics below)
or larger frames (7 ft.) give Shawls/Throws. Similar to a giant potholder,
this technique allows a mix of shades, beads, ribbons, rovings, bulky
textures and various fibers,including some handspun wool from my sheep.
|
Full size Tri-Weaves are not currently available. For scarves, see below. Triangle weaving is a great project for DIY crafters. Since they are done on frames, no traditional loom nor experience is needed. Ask about workshops offered in this fun technique... |

Circle
& Flat Scarves:
Some call the circles "infinity" scarves; they seem to go on and on. Blends of natural fibers and textured novelties, these may also include beads, buttons, ribbons, fringes or trims. |
Circles
are approximately 6 ft. long, joined at end points to make a large circle
that can be looped 'round and 'round. Or unlace the ends for a standard,
straight scarf. See wearable options below. Light-weight, wildly textured novelty yarns or smoother cottons. - Ask about school colors! |

Three Scarf Styles:

See gallery of scarves. |
Circle Scarves |
![]() Wear circle scarves wrapped 'round & round your neck, or to pull one end through the loop, or with 2 loose ends braided. |
My circle scarves have removeable ties. Unlaced, wear them loose and straight, or wrapped 'round and 'round. See gallery of scarves. |
