I think this colorway is appropriately named as a lady bug landed on this shawl when I was trying to photograph it ....she must have thought  where there's roses....there's  aphids (-:

"Hi Margaret,
 
I bought your Taupe and Tallahatchee Bridge tencel with no project in mind. Then I saw the scarf in doubleweave in the May/June '07 issue of "Handwoven" and knew it was the perfect project for such beautiful yarn!
 
Went to Fletcher Farm School for Arts and Crafts for a week to use their 8 harness loom and after 44  hours had a beautiful scarf.
 
Thought you'd like to see pics of my scarf.
 
Thanks for providing such beautiful hand painted tencel."
