Creamsicle Towels

Designed by Elisabeth (Lisa) Hill

“Meta Weave” uses scale or one particular structure to graphically represent a different structure. The Creamsicle Towels use Summer and Winter to depict the elegant over-and-under of Plain Weave. This project offers three treadling variations, ranging from a simple Dukagang pattern to introduce the basics of Summer and Winter, to sequences requiring two treadles and a skeleton tie-up. The combination of Beam 8/2 Organic Cotton and Duet Cotton/Linen creates soft, plump towels with fantastic sheen and drape. Tie-up adaptation for Countermarch looms included.  Order a kit.

Good looking pattern

The results are nice, but the lifts where there are numerous shafts is difficult on my legs and knees. I'm weaving 4, two different colors. It's going to take a while because I'm frequently breaking to rest my legs.
