Lickety Split Towels
Designed by Susan Kessler Simpson and featured in The Magic of Summer and Winter Weaving.
What could be more fun than a towel filled with colorful scoops of ice cream? Lickety Split Towels feature rows of playful ice cream cones, each woven in a different color to look like a variety of delicious flavors.
The repeating design makes these towels fun to weave, as each color combination creates another “flavor” of ice cream. The cheerful colors and whimsical pattern make these towels a fun addition to the kitchen and a sweet gift for anyone who loves ice cream.
This is one of those projects that is sure to bring a smile every time you reach for a towel.
