altivo: 'Tivo as a plush toy (Miktar's plushie)
Next weaving project going onto the loom now. This is for a set of soft cotton towels. My weavers' guild is celebrating its tenth annual show this fall, and inviting entries based on "Twists and Turns of Ten," so this will be one of those.


Ten Years Ten Years
Weaving draft for summer and winter towels. This was a name draft based on the word "tenyears" and converted to a four block summer and winter design. It will be worked in soft cotton flake yarns, with handspun for the red color in the weft. Finished size about 18 x 26 inches. (Draft is slightly elongated because it shows all weft threads at the same thickness when actually the white thread is much thinner than the red.)



"Summer and Winter" refers to a weaving technique that produces reverse images front to back. So on the other side, you will see red where you see white here, and vice versa.
