It’s fun to vary the weft yarn color when weaving multiple items on a long warp. By changing things up it helps when boredom sets in. The 5 1/2 yd warp gave me 5 towels. Three like the first towel in the picture and one of each of the others. This is an eight harness turned twill using cottolin yarns. I love the hand that cottolin gives a towel. Which color towel is your favorite?
Really pretty towels – should sell fast!

These look wonderful! I guess I like the one that’s heavy on green best but it’s the variety you created that is impressive. I’m in the process of putting a long Cottolin warp on my loom and now I’m more inspired!

Thank you, I didn’t think I liked the green on the loom. But off it’s one of my favorites too.
