Dash Tea Towels

When I was learning how to weave I made a LOT of tea towels – they’re the perfect project to advance your weaving skills and learn more about how texture, pattern, and colour interact. The Dash Tea Towel PDF weaving pattern is a simple project designed to let you play with these elements: threaded for a twill but woven in a plain weave, this project offers three different classic checked tea towels woven on the same warp – and plenty of ideas for designing your own.

This project is geared to the beginner/novice weaver who is comfortable warping and weaving in multiple colours but would like to follow a pattern and learn more about creating their own unique textile designs on the loom. This PDF download is 11 pages long and includes 9 colour images outlining the process as well as the instructions/treadling drafts for 3 distinct tea towels created on one warp.
