Bars & Stripes Bathmat
Designed by Carolyn Heacock
This stunning striped bathmat is an excellent project for weavers ready to advance beyond basic Plain Weave patterns. The substantial warp and weft create a beautiful ribbed effect, while the distinctive bars and stripes come from alternating colors in specific sections of the warp. Thick weft picks make this a quick weave. Order a kit.
