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.
