This overshot pattern is stunning.  We have included enough 10/2 mercerized cotton yarn to weave 8 placemats, and the instructions are included.  The full draft is included with the instructions.  Weaving overshot is fun…you will weave with two shuttles.  One shuttle carries the pattern yarn, and the other shuttle carries the tabby or tie-down yarn.
