Prairie Bloom Towels

This weaving kit includes all the yarns needed to weave these Prairie Bloom Towels that were designed by Malynda Allen for Handwoven May/June 2023.

These towels are woven in a little plain weave with a log cabin border.  Oh, and an added huck center will add fantastic texture too!

Weave Structure: plain weave and huck with color-and-weave.

Yarns: Aurora Earth 8/2 Cottons

We have made similar color substitutions for some of the 8/2 cotton yarns from the original pattern with our Aurora Earth 8/2 cottons.  

Equipment needed: 4-shaft Loom; 21” weaving width; 12 dent reed; 2-4 shuttles; 4 bobbins. Optional hanging tabs: inkle loom; belt shuttle.

Finished Dimensions: four hemmed towels with tabs, 17½" × 25" each.

Instructions needed: Handwoven May/June 2023  pages 44-47.
