A handwoven deflected doubleweave mosaic merino snood - woven with a pale blue with accents of orange, pink and burgundy red - reversible, made by Emma Baker in Salisbury
Woven on an 8 shaft floor loom in Sailisbury, Wiltshire this is one of Emma's favourite designs. A deflected doubleweave mosaic pattern woven in fine merino lambswool in pale blue with accents of pink, orange and burgundy. This snood is reversible with a different pattern on each side with colour balance shifting depending on which face of the fabric is worn on the outside.
Reversible
The snood is sewn with a French seam in a circle. Because the deflected doubleweave mosaic has a genuinely different colour balance on its two faces, the snood can be worn with different colourways at the front. The French seam gives both faces a clean finish.
About the deflected doubleweave mosaic
The 8-shaft floor loom allows Emma to create the deflected doubleweave mosaic structure: the loom constructs two fabric layers simultaneously, with the weft threads periodically deflected between the layers to create the tile-like mosaic pattern. The result is a fabric with structure, warmth and a geometric surface character that is distinct from plain-weave snoods.

Care
Sponge-wash small marks with a damp cloth. If a full wash is needed, hand wash very gently in hand-hot water with minimal agitation. Rinse once. Press between towels to remove excess water and dry flat, away from direct heat. If pressing is needed, press lightly while still slightly damp. Do not machine wash, wring or tumble dry.
