In Case You Missed it!
| We’ve all done it – an email comes in, we scan it quickly as we are just running out the door. But a tea towel photo has grabbed our attention and we just can’t remember where we saw it 😉 Soooo – we decided to feature some of our recent kits “In Case You Missed it…” – here’s your chance! |
Abalone and Ebony Towel & Scarf Kit
Treat yourself to a project that will have you mentally wandering a west coast beach. Something catches your eye; you pick it up, turn it over see the beautiful colours of abalone sparkling up at you hidden inside a clamshell. Look closer and you will see that it’s framed by the ebony black of the outside of the shell. As you know, I love anything that is nicely framed. It’s all happening here in the Abalone and Ebony Towel & Scarf Kit!
| Level of Difficulty: Intermediate Weave structure: 4 shaft Bronson Spot Material: 8/2 cotton Each kit makes: 3 Tea Towels & 1 Scarf (20/2 Bombyx silk for scarf sold separately) |
Sea Foam & Pebbles Tea Towel Kit
These towels are the result of a friend’s request for a thinner towel with texture. We often weave towels with Bouclé in the warp and weft. That combination sett at 12 EPI and woven at 12 PPI makes for a lovely drapey, textured towel. How to make them thinner….hmmm. Okay, I’ll change the warp to 8/2 cotton and keep the same EPI/PPI – I’m always up for a challenge! You’ll enjoy weaving Sea Foam & Pebbles!
Level of Difficulty: Beginner

Material: 8/2 cotton & Bouclé cotton

Huck Lace Pretty Pansies Tea Towel Kit
One of our favourite kits is the Huck Towel kit designed by Arlene Kohut. Seeing that it is Lace year at School of Weaving, we thought it would be fun to reissue it in a new palette. So guess what, we chose Granny Pam’s palette from our Boucle Towel Kit! They are a riot of purples and pinks drifting off to pale orange which reminds me of a bed of pansies. Elizabeth was given the task of adding more Huck & colour sequences to the pattern and voila Pretty Pansies….GP would be proud.
