Turned Twill Runner and Towel Pattern and WIF in Euroflax 14/2

This pattern is a digital download of the instructional PDF, a WIF for the tie-up and a WIF for the liftplan.

This project uses twill blocks with color to give a 3-dimensional effect.  It’s really simple to warp and weave.  There are two colors I the warp and a third single color in the weft.

With a 5-yard warp, you can weave a couple of runners, or weave one runner and some towels.  The weft colors can be varied on the towels.  The picture of the runner has a charcoal weft;  the towel is woven on the same warp with a cream colored weft.
