• Yarn A - Duet Cotton/Linen in Dune
• Yarn B - Duet Cotton/Linen in Cerise

1. Warp the loom using your preferred method (direct or indirect) with a total of 174 warp ends, 2 yards long, following the warp color order below. Center for a weaving width of 13.25". Please note, if you direct warp on a rigid heddle loom, your warp will be 14.5” in the reed and decrease by 14 spaces when you thread each doubled Yarn B into single slots or holes. This will cause your warp to be slightly off center, so you can move the warp over a few spaces as you thread to center it in the reed.

• 2 ends Yarn A sleyed with a single thread per hole or slot
• 2 ends Yarn B (held together as one) sleyed with both threads in the same hole or slot
• Repeat these steps 13 more times. There will be 14 stripes (28 ends, since Yarn B is doubled) of Yarn B in the warp
• 118 ends Yarn A sleyed with a single thread in a hole or slot

2. Begin and end each towel with hemstitch, if that is your preferred method. You can also machine stitch each edge when you have finished weaving (as pictured). Weave following the weft color order below.

• 4 picks of Yarn A in alternating sheds
• 2 picks of Yarn B in the same shed, beating between each pick, so that color B is doubled in the weft. Be sure to catch the thread at the selvedge when you throw the second pick so that you do not unweave the first pick.
• 2 picks with Color A in alternating sheds.
• Repeat these last two steps until you have 12 rows of Color B (doubled weft picks). Then weave only with Color A in alternating sheds until the towel reaches 22” total measured under tension on the loom. Weave with scrap yarn for about an 1" between each towel to leave room for fringe.

3. After removing the yardage from the loom (and before cutting the towels apart) use a sewing machine to straight stitch the ends of each towel, making sure to back-stitch the first few and last few stitches to secure the edges of the hem. The stitching should be about 1/2" from the scrap yarn marker on either side. Cut the towels apart at the scrap yarn marker, leaving a short fringe on either side. Machine wash cold on delicate and air dry (or tumble dry low if preferred). Press as needed. If you chose to hemstitch the edges, cut apart the napkins at the center of the 1" space left for fringe, then wash.
