Lace & Flower Runner: Vintage Inspiration
Inspiration for this lovely vintage runner comes from an antique swatch which features alternating areas of 3-thread huck (also called mock leno) and a 4-thread spot weave on a background of plain weave.
Yarns: The original swatch was woven in a very fine linen but we are using our fine weight Ecocot™ 100% organically-grown cotton.
Finished size: two towels 16.5" x 52"
Fabric description: Plain weave, 3-thread huck lace and spot weave
Equipment needed: 8 shaft loom; 18 3/8" weaving width: 10 dent reed
Available in color shown: Naturale
Instructions needed: Best of Handwoven Top Ten Table Runners on Eight Shafts" available from Long Thread Media for warping and weaving instructions.
