Autumn Equinox Towel Instructions

November 21, 2022

Use 7 cozy colors of 10/2 Tubular Spectrum™ mercerized cotton yarn to make these towels to warm your hearth. This one-shuttle Turned Taquete (aka Jin) weave structure makes towels to match the season. This kit comes with enough yarn to make four dishtowels.  With this 8-shaft pattern, you can make both the towels with the circles and the towels with the blocks.  Thanks to Susan Poague who designed the circle draft.  Her original towels can be found in Handwoven May/June 2019. Choose either 4 or 8-shaft instructions.

Natural and Bleached Hemp Yarns

This is the remainder of our original hemp yarn stock.  What we have left is all there is of this yarn, and we are selling it at a closeout price.  This 100% Hemp yarn is a long line wetspun yarn with great drape and longevity. We still have thick 12 or 6 ply that is wonderful for rug or tapestry warp as well as lovely placemats; 3 ply that is great for towels and clothing.  All of these yarns are available on 400+g cones.  The yarn is slightly slubby as a result of the spinning process. If you would like a 2-ply yarn, we are now stocking our Lyte hemp yarn.  Click here for more information about the Lyte hemp yarn.
