I have about 6 of the December towels woven. I am making two of each warp color. I'm not sure though if I will use the dark brown as weft. I also think that I might spend more time on the warp stripe designs on later towels. I think this one is too regular - a too even distribution of the colors. They look pretty good and I am anxious to see them off the loom and washed. I'm not sure the colors are ones I would want to have per se though...

I like the combination of the stripes and the texture of the pattern. What design are you using?
I love the colors. What is your structure?
This is a dornick twill from Carol Strickler's book: A Weaver's Book of 8-Shaft Patterns from the Friends of Handwoven. I forget which page it is on - I'll check on that - but Beryl, this is one that Dee wove for the book. I used a straight treadling and one that wove 1-4 and then 8-5.
