Description

No shrinking violet here. I have dyed the yarn with a strong bold natural dye, then woven this poncho, adding touches of contrast all along the upper edge.

Slowly and delicately hand-woven and hand hemmed on the banks of Lake Albert in Wagga Wagga, regional Australia.  Ponchos are warm, easy to wear and oh so versatile. Throw it on, and head out the door. Or take an extra moment to line up the joining seam, just forward of your arm and shoulder. For some more elegance, turn it a little, with the seam now down your centre back, roll the neckline over a couple of times, pair with some smart jeans and a long necklace.

At Ashculme Textiles we walk gently on this precious earth. I hand weave each piece at my studio in rural NSW, using the yarn from our small herd of Suri Alpacas. The process is mostly here on the farm - after shearing, we clean the fleeces before sending them to a local mill where small batches are washed, carded & spun. I use natural dyes working with rain water that flows directly from the tank and on into the garden after use. In my weaving the designs come as I weave, allowing my fingers to instinctively create as they work.
