We have loved this traditional overshot pattern for years but thought it was time to give it a modern twist. The 8 harness pattern is threaded with 8/2 Bamboo sett at 18 epi. The same Bamboo serves as the tabby weft. For the pattern weft, we chose the dramatic color effect of Zauberball Crazy. Its colors change slowly, so the result is blended color rather than stripes. The kit makes one scarf of approximately 7" x 69.5" plus fringe. The scarf can be hand washed and dried flat, followed by a brief fluff in the dryer.

You will need:

• 8" weaving width
• 8 harnesses
• 12 dent reed
• 139 heddles
• two shuttles
• 6 bobbins

Our sample scarf was woven in colorway Autumn Harvest using 8/2 Bamboo #8024 Brown for the warp and tabby weft and Zauberball Crazy 2266 for the pattern weft. We've also created a variety of other color combinations. If you would like one of these colorways, simply order the kit above using the pull-down menu. If you would like to choose your own colors, please see our 8/2 Bamboo and Zauberball Crazy pages to see the options. Then return to this page, order the kit, and tell us in the box above which colors you would like. Pick one color of 8/2 Bamboo and one color of Zauberball Crazy.
