Irish Crios – Spring Hedgerow

Description

Christy Crios – Irish Handwoven Belt – Spring Hedgerow

This Irish Crios – Spring Hedgerow, in lilac and lime tones, is handwoven at Swallow Studios in the soft colours of spring hedgerows. A beautiful hand-fasting band for a spring or summer wedding.

Liz weaves the ‘CHRISTY CRIOS’  on a loom she inherited from a property cleared out in County Sligo. The shed’s owner wanted the four-shaft floor loom to go to a good home.  So, Liz happily obliged and used the loom to perfect the design and weaving of ‘the crios’. Liz’s friend and mentor, Kitty Joyce of Cleo Ltd, encouraged her to keep this craft alive. ‘CHRISTY CRIOS’ are handcrafted with beautiful Donegal tweed wool.

The flowers of an Irish spring inspire the colours of this lovely Christy Crios. Hand-woven in lilac, lime and white, it is a perfect choice for a hand-fasting braid, especially for spring or summer weddings. It is also a great choice to wear with jeans and a chunky jumper (sweater).
