Use two different pick-up patterns to weave eye-catching towels that match but aren’t exactly the same.
Just like bright blue cotton candy from the county fair, weaving these two towels is an absolute treat. They’re also the perfect projects for learning pick-up. Towel 1 uses simple pick-up to create small warp floats, while Towel 2 features a longer, but equally simple, pick-up sequence to create both warp and weft floats. (These towels are a blue version of the Savory Towels for the Rigid-Heddle Loom featured in Handwoven November/December 2017.)
Featuring the classic combination of linen and lace, these heirloom-quality towels are as durable as they are beautiful.

Unassuming and thirsty, Kerala towels are generally plain weave in white cotton with a few stripes or decorations to distinguish them. Waffle-weave versions spotted on a recent trip gave designer Anne Merrow the idea to weave a set of towels: one in traditional plain weave with clasped-weft accents, and the other with simple waffle-weave pick-up.
Semirandom stripes and a pick-up pattern mimic the shifting light and colors of a waterfall in this towel design.

Embracing the soothing hues of the beach, the towels are light and airy and feature a delicate blend of colors throughout.

These bright, cheerful towels were inspired by the rosebuds and green leaves of a rose garden.

Mix it up with blends that showcase fibers and your weaving at their best.
Take a trip to the Middle Ages without leaving your loom.
Woven from pure linen, these towels feature wide royal-blue stripes marked with a distinctive pick-up pattern fit for royalty.
