Weaving Hand Towels Simply

Weaving Hand Towels Simply: 43 Designs for 4- and 8-Shaft Looms

Every weaver loves weaving hand towels!

They can be woven in any size and weave up quickly, are perfect for using up small amounts of yarn, make great gifts, are perfect for beginners and for learning new techniques, and they are eminently practical.

This collection of hand towel patterns is just the reference you need! With 43 designs in a variety of weave structures, from easy to advanced, for both 4- and 8-shaft looms. There are plenty of patterns to explore and learn from while you weave these towels.

Since kitchen towels are often undertaken as a first weave, the book includes an introductory section explaining how to read and work from weaving drafts, the best fiber choices for towels, how to combine colors in pleasing combinations, finishing techniques, and troubleshooting tips.

Aurora Earth 8/2 Cotton is used for many of these patterns!
