Weaver Notes
This towel was adapted from a Colour-and-Weave Baby Blanket that I designed for a study group project.
It is log cabin colour-and-weave overlaid on broken twill blocks – with the colour order of the blocks being LDLD DLDL.
I wove three towels – one tromp-as-writ; one using natural weft; and one using rose weft. Each of the single weft colour towels was woven with a straight twill treadling.
I chose the tromp-as-writ towel for the exchange.
Towel uses two colours – one dark and one light – for this towel I chose rose and natural.
408 ends plus 1 floating selvedge each side = 410 ends total
Finished size: 17″x26″
