£120.00
Unique woven tapestry wall hanging featuring textured abstract cherry blossom against a blue sky design and incorporating handspun art yarns
1 in stock
Description
This is a beautiful textured woven wall hanging incorporating several of my own handspun yarns alongside a commercially spun blufaced leicester boucle yarn and a comercially spun merino and bamboo blend yarn which I have hand dyed. I have also used a comercially spun two-ply Shetland yarn in the fringe and the hanger.
The handspun yarns are a bouncy, coiled blend of merino wool, bamboo fibre, trilobal nylon and sparkly angelina, a wispy corespun yarn created by spinning the same fibre around a merino wool yarn core and a banana fibre singles yarn.
This woven piece measures approx. 18cm (w) x 38cm (h) and weighs around 160g. The wood dowel I have used is sustainable pinewood and is approx 30cm in length and 1.8cm in diameter. The complete length from hanger to bottom of fringe is approx. 62cm. It will be shipped both tracked and insured.
My woven wall hangings are all unique and take many hours to complete, from spinning the yarns, through weaving, to finishing by securing all of the ends and attaching the hanger. They are usually fairly abstract in nature but based around a theme.
This piece is the first in a series of pieces inspired by Japanese cherry blossoms (sakura) and spring blue skies.
Please be aware that colours may appear more or less intense depending on the device that you are viewing on.

Wharfedale Woolworks began in 2010, when I took redundancy from ma dull office job and opened an online shop, originally offering hand-dyed yarns and fibres. After completing a Masters degree and taking on a new job I no longer had time to dye on a regular basis, so took a break for a couple of years. This year, after reducing working hours for a better work-life balance I am now re-opening and offering hand dyed yarns, handspun art yarns, prepared fibres in different formats for spinning and also some luxury hand knits and woven textile wall hangings.
I am autistic and suffer from fibromyalgia and depression. I’m also awaiting assessment for ADHD, so all of my fibre related activities are highly therapeutic and restorative. I take great pride in my work and I value my time, so items are priced to account fairly for this. I hope you gain as much enjoyment from my products as I did from their creation.
