Notes

My goal was to put on an 8 yard Venne cotton warp and use different linen wefts and make 7 towels. Well, it worked but some are towel length and a couple are more a short runner length!

Its a 16 shaft twill of unknown origin right now. (I will update when I find the source.) Then, some will be ‘seconds’ as the Megado seemed to ‘drop’ a pic and I wasn’t always successful in catching it. (brand new dobby… and it peeves me when it does this! moneybagmoneybagmoneybag)

I used 9/2 French linen from Brassards (blue, ivory and natural), some 30/3 Belgium linen in natural, and some heavier dark green tow linen gifted by a friend years ago. That green one Hub snatched up for his den. wink It all took far longer to weave up due to a shoulder strain and lower back issues but it’s finally done. tada
