Turquoise Dish Towels

Pattern/Technique: Followed warping instructions from Gist Beginner Cotton Towels by Sara Resnick, then improvised on the weft.

Warp: 8/4 Brassard Cotton; using the number of ends specified in the Beginner Cotton Towels patter, alternated Peacock, Denim, Peacock, Denim, Peacock

Weft: Used combination of peacock, sage, denim in various patterns. Wove each towel to 26” on loom. Wove 2 picks of contrast color between towels.

Materials: Maurice Brassard 8/4 Cotton in Peacock, Sage, Denim

12 dent reed

Stick Shuttle

Lessons/Notes: After weaving to desired length on loom, I zigzag stitched the front and back end of the cloth on a sewing machine, washed the cloth in the washing machine, then zig zag stitched 2x at the split between towels.

I folded each end under 2x and straight stitched to secure the hem.

Care: Machine wash, tumble dry
