I always like to weave right up to the heddles to minimize loom waste and maximize fun. 😁

Color change. I’m loving the rhythm of this weaving. 🧶

This is towel 1 of the Friendship Towels pattern designed by @sarahjacksonhandwovendesign. The yarn is 8/2 cotton naturally dyed by @mayanhands.

Finally found a few minutes to start weaving on the Friendship Towels (with help from @hildegard.the.weaver who was not the least bit disturbed by my treadling 🐶💕).

It’s a New year and there’s a new warp going on one of my looms. This 8/2 cotton is extra special because it is naturally dyed by @mayanhands. I’m making the Friendship Towels by @sarahjacksonhandwovendesign from the Sept/Oct 2014 i
