Pleased with the results!

I have recently used Beam 3/2 to weave towels on a 4 shaft Harrisville loom. Gist patterns used are Spot lace towels, Deep End towels, and Instant Vintage towels. All have produced beautiful, soft results. I’ll be using again!! My next project is a Spot Lace towel using Beam 3/2 but expanding to bath towel size.

Perfect all-purpose yarn

Newbie here, trying my hand at kitchen towels and placemats and I'm loving Beam 3/2 for these projects. It's versatile and forgiving. I only wish it came in more colors.

Wonderful to work with

I wove on a rigid heddle loom for years, until last fall, when I bought (and assembled) a Louet Erica 4-shaft table loom. I wove these towels with 3/2 Beam on the new loom and couldn't be happier with the way they turned out. The pattern was easy to follow, and my weaving friends were as impressed as I to feel how soft they came out.
