Weaver Notes

I like weaving turned twills and find that towels woven with the design have a nice texture as well as visual pattern. I had a partial cone of variegated 8/2 cotton that would not be enough for a full towel, so I started placing stripes in the warp. After weaving the towels on this warp, I found that there are similar striped designs everywhere.
