Color Fusion Waffle Weave Towel Pattern

The Color Fusion Waffle Weave Towel Pattern is written for both rigid heddle and 4-shaft looms, with instructions tailored to each loom type.

On a rigid heddle loom, a simple pick-up technique is used to create the waffle texture, while the 4-shaft version achieves the same look through shaft threading and treadling. The result is a fabric that looks wonderfully complex but is very approachable to weave.

Once you find your rhythm, the weaving flows smoothly, allowing you to complete a full set in just a few relaxed weaving sessions. The finished towels are richly textured and show off the variegated Color Fusion yarns beautifully.
