Acton Creative ~ April 2024 Weave Along ~ Undulating Twill Runner Yarn Pack
You're invited to participate in the April 2024 Acton Creative Weave Along!
The Acton Creative Weave Along comes with just two guidelines - we all start & finish a project in the month of April, and we all incorporate the same weave structure. This time around, the pattern is undulating twill and the project is a Spring inspired table runner!
You can weave this project on either rigid heddle or 4-shaft loom by choosing the pattern that is best suited for you.
Cotton Clouds has made it easy with a yarn pack that coordinates with this pattern!
The April 2024 Weave Along ~ Undulating Twill Runner project materials include four colors of 8/4 cotton yarn. Choose from Green Garden, Blue Sky, or Purple Pansy.
Green Garden: Loden, Myrtle Green, Aqua, Ivory
Blue Sky: Dark Navy, Royal, Colonial Blue, Ivory
Purple Pansy: Eggplant, Purple, Lavender, Ivory
Rustic Southwest: Mahogany, Dark Brown, Peach, Ecru.
Choose Your Own: Choose any four colors in our 8/4 Rug Warp Cottons.
We offer made to order color combinations. Choose any four colors from our 8/4 Cottons and let us know your selections in the comment section of the shopping cart. If you need help or have questions about choosing colors that work best together, just drop me an email at jodi@cottonclouds.com

Customer Reviews
I purchased the yarn through the store. Like all orders from the store, received fast, nicely wrapped. Great service. I purchased the pattern from Acton Creative, still waiting. No response. Month is nearly over and I have not been able to start.
Scoring 1 star for the weave along 5 star for the yarn.
I received the kit quickly, Jodi went the extra mile and shipped it UPS so I would get it in time! The kit has plenty of yarn, beautiful Southwest colors, and the 8/4 is great to work with. This was the first time using my table loom, and it was not hard to dress at all, and is a breeze to weave on. Thank you Chris and Jodi! You opened a whole new world of weaving for me. Looking forward to the next WAL!
