Halvdräll Towels

Designed by Arianna E. Funk, adapted for Beam and woven by Christine Jablonski

The Halvdräll Towels are one of our earliest and most-loved patterns, first published in 2019. We have since adapted the original project to be woven with a combination of Beam 8/2 Organic Cotton and Duet Cotton/Linen. This trio of towels features a striped warp and a variety of weft color block patterns woven in a simplified Overshot technique known as Halvdräll. Order a kit.

Style and Function

I think these are fabulous towels. These particular colors and square blocks are so well balanced. The color values are perfect. And in terms of function, the weave structure and resulting texture make very absorbent towels.

Pretty quick to weave

Pattern was pretty easy to read. Nice sized towels. I was able to weave them fairly quickly.

Clear instructions, outstanding design

i have woven this pattern twice , using two different colorways. The pattern instructions are very clear. The draft is also large enough to be easy to read!
