This kit will weave a set of 4 placemats and 4 napkins as well as a dishtowel with one loom setup.  The placemats are woven in rep weave, and the napkins and towels can be woven in plain weave, twill, or block weaves.  All you have to do after weaving the napkins and towels is to resley your loom to narrow the warp for the placemats.  Your kit contains 10/2 mercerized yarns in 5 colors and 4/8 cotton as the thick weft for the placemats. You can weave these on 2, 4, or 8+ harness looms.  We got our inspiration for the rep mats from Joanne Tallarovic’s wonderful book: Rep Weave and Beyond. Interweave Press, 2004.

The available colorways remind us of places we have been.  Yellow and red autumn leaf colors of Maggie Valley North Carolina, bright primary colors celebrating the colorful hot air balloons of the Albuquerque Balloon Festival, subtle blue and green sea colors of the Caribbean, and grays with a hint of red for New York City.

Listen to the Loon! The difficulty level for this kit is Intermediate to Advanced (Two fish). This is a Two harness kit.
