Lakeview Placemats
Designed by Kristina Nichols
Inspired by the ripples, reflections and movements of the water, these placemats evoke images of the waves in a lake. This 4-shaft project takes the pattern line of an undulating twill and turns it into a Shadow Weave to give the visual effect of depth in each of the ripples. Perfectly paired, the Inkwell and Dawn colorway is reminiscent of summer lake views, but the design is equally stunning in other colorways with high value contrast. Order a kit.

Pattern was easy to follow and came off the loom looking great

I enjoyed this weaving pattern and results to much that I completed a second set in green - what a fun and quick weave!

Loved this pattern. It was easy to follow and fun to weave. I love how they look on my table even though I made a threading error. Next time I’ll use more contrasting threads so that the pattern stands out better.

After over 25 yrs. of not weaving, I'm relearning everything. I loved this pattern so much I did it twice--first with a royal blue and light gray combo which was okay but then with a melon and silver (bamboo) combo that was wonderful. Thanks for providing such a fun design.

I wove these out of yarn I had in my stash. I used Astra 5/2 Pearl Cotton at the proper set, colors Nassau blue and Deep Turquoise. This was my first experience with shadow weave and I'm so amazed at how 3 dimensional looking they turned out. Gist Yarn has such amazing patterns and yarn, and they are prompt and so pleasant to deal with!
