Shifting Seasons Towels
Shifting Seasons Towels: The Contrast of Texture and Plain Weave
Winter’s Last Chill or Spring’s First Bloom?
As winter begins to loosen its grip and hints of spring emerge, we want to capture the beauty of this seasonal shift. The Shifting Seasons Towels are designed to reflect the subtle transition between cold, crisp days and the first signs of warmth and renewal.
As the seasons change, so do the colors, moods, and textures of the world around us. Through the interplay of plain weave and texture, we’ll capture the stark beauty of winter or the soft blossoming of spring.
Contrast with Weave Structure
In this weaving project, we will embrace the contrast of two different weave structures - all within the same project! To embrace the unique beauty of both Winter and Spring we created two different color palettes for you to choose from.
Will you choose Winter's Edge and make a bold statement or Awaken Spring to celebrate the gentle awakening of nature’s first bloom and the promise of warmer days ahead? No matter which you choose, these towels will add both beauty and meaning to your weaving, celebrating the natural rhythm of change.
Winter’s Edge: A Dark and Bold Statement. Winter’s Edge embodies the chill of the season with deep moody colors that evoke frozen lakes, and the shadowy depths of evergreen forests.
Awaken Spring: Softness and Renewal. A breath of fresh air; as the first signs of spring emerge, with the blush of early blossoms, and the warmth of fresh soil awakening under the sun.
