Beautiful and somewhat challenging

This is a gorgeous pattern. I've tried it in a variety of non-mercerized cottons at different setts. Before threading the heddles, I'd advise coloring your draft. The warping and the threading are a little different so the coloring helps. I also struggled with throwing 1 of a color then 2 of another color until I started throwing all at one time then mixing it by threading from the front of the loom and letting all the tangles out when rolling it on. Unorthodox but it works for me.

Great pattern

The pattern was easy to follow and my towels turned out beautiful. I used tangerine, lemon, and hibiscus.

Fun fun towels

I just got started on this, but a fun, well written pattern. I think I’ll switch around the colors for my second towel, but who knows.
