Trick or Treat Towels
Creating a yarn color palette is exciting but the process can be daunting if you're not sure how to combine colors in weaving. We've made it easy with these Trick or Treat Towel color combinations!
These towels are inspired by our Aurora Earth Bundles that take the guesswork out of choosing colors. Aurora Earth Bundles together with this Trick or Treat Towel pattern make a perfect match!
Be sure to read all about this month's challenge on our Trick or Treat Blog Post.
You can also weave the Trick or Treat Towels on your 4-shaft loom. We've included over 200 extra yards in each of the colors which will allow you the extra warp needed for your floor loom. I would suggest warping 3 yards rather than 2.75 yards since 4-shaft looms take a little extra waste and take up. You can choose to weave this in plain weave or twill.
