Rigid Heddle Stripes and Blocks Kitchen Towels
Weave stripes and blocks using plain weave and an inlay technique on your rigid heddle loom.
Weft and warp floats will inspire you to create a set of towels that look difficult but are really rather easy.
We highly recommend "The Weaver's Idea Book" for tips on pick up techniques and more! This is a great reference tool for rigid heddle weaving.
Yarns: Aurora Earth 8/2 100% unmercerized cotton.
Equipment needed: rigid heddle loom; 20" weaving width; 12-dent reed; 2 stick shuttles; two pick-up sticks.
Finished size: two towels 17" x 22" each
Instructions needed: Handwoven September/October 2014 available from Long Thread Media.
