This was the first project I wove on my first loom, an older 12-shaft Macomber that took me over 9 months to refurbish. The towels turned out better than I had hoped, so of course I put them away “for posterity”. I couldn’t bear to let my husband misuse / stain them! Now, many weaving successes and failures later, I realize how silly that was, so I’m giving them away.
