We make Handwoven Tweed,  Rugs,

 Shawls, Scarves and Squares.

All of wool unless otherwise stated.


 

 
   Flora is a reluctant model and I'm not really
much of a photographer.



Here are two shawls, still on the loom.

Around New Year 2011


I got my Great Niece Erica to model a shawl but I'm unsure if she took it at all seriously,



The Rugs are of thicker weave.

The items below I have numbered and differentuated so that, I hope it is less confusing if you wish to chose one.

We are not satisfied that the camera reproduces the real colours and continue to work on it.
For this I apologise and trust that the real colours are more pleaant to behold than those in the photos.


Narrow Scarves are prefixed by the letter--------------- N are £15
Shawls by-----------------------------------------------------S  are £25
Rugs by------------------------------------------------------- R are £25
















These shawls or wide scarves are plain weave
about 30" by 60".

Although I make a point of never believing the plaudits I find on other people's websites I have weakened to the extent of publishing these ones from a ladies who bought Scorraig Weave Scarves.

These ladies gave me permission to use their letters

"The ones I bought from you many years ago I wear all the time. I lost my most treasured one a year ago and really miss it. Christine."


"Dear Alun,
Just to let you know that the scarves arrived this morning and they are wonderful.  They were both intended as Christmas presents, but I’m afraid that one of them may have to stay in my wardrobe.
Many thanks,    Kay"

I have only depicted a limited number of photos of what we sell but if anybody wants to see  samples of our current  stock they should email me Scorraig Weave telling me of their requirements and I will photograph some samples for them. We never make many yards of any pattern of tweed and the shawls hardly ever repeat themselves at all.

 Debbie over the hill 2 miles weaves tweed and Rona in Tigh Scorraig weaves some of the shawls.

    Although Scorraig weave products are all Hand Woven, there are needless to say electric devices involved in the washing pressing etc. Of course we have electric lights as well. All this power comes from a 4 kw windmill, designed and made in Scorraig.  Hugh Piggott did most of it with help from Alun.

We haven't used a backup generator for about ten years. We can borrow and lend battery charging power between our windmill and that of our daughter in law. Where the wires from the two similar windmills run parallel we have made provision for  emergency connections to switch from one to the other.

We also have 8 solar panels which pull their weight in calm sunny weather but not too much in the winter.
