Exchange Napkins
Weave 12 napkins on one warp!
These napkins were designed from members of a study group to provide teaching and learning new techniques.
The designers include Marti McIntyre, Linda Van Andel, Janice Cook, Julie Hurd, Sandy Bragg, Bert McDonald, Lucy Stolt, Jackie Bolinger, Carol Book, Diane Strzelinski, Mary Campbell, and Holly Shaltz.
There are four different weave structures to choose from in the pattern. Each has its own unique threading and tie-up, so you’ll select your favorite design to weave all 12 napkins.
Each kit comes with Natural and the color of your choice. We have listed four color choices, but we can offer this kit in any of our Aurora Earth colors. Just send us an email if you would like an optional color.
