I love weaving with this. It makes really nice towels.
Great to weave with, and washes up nicely.
I used the Aurora 8/2 cotton as part of the yarn to make dish towels. They turned out great. The colors are beautiful. I've washed them once and they were colorfast. Shrinkage was about 10-15%.
This 8/2 cotton yarn is great!❤️ It is a weaving yarn though. So keep it in mind. It makes great soft towels and things like this.
It makes beautiful tea towels but it tangles easily causing tension problems.
