Can you make a shawl with a reversible two-colour design?

Yes. A reversible two-colour shawl can be made either by double-face weaving, where two fabric faces are woven together and joined at the edges, or by double-sided printing, where both faces are printed separately. The method you choose affects the minimum and the price.

Double-face weaving - two colours or two different fabrics are woven as one cloth, giving a clean reversible finish with no wrong side. It uses more yarn and loom time, so the minimum is higher than a standard shawl and the price reflects the extra construction.

Double-sided printing - both faces are printed, usually with the same design in two colourways or a complementary pattern. This is more economical than double-face weaving at lower volumes, but the reverse side may show slight show-through on lighter fabrics.

Minimum and cost - both methods start from the standard 20 pieces per colour per design, but double-face weaving is most economic at larger runs. Exact minimums and prices are confirmed at sample stage once we know the size, fabric and colourways.
