Buffalo Plaid Dish Towel Kit

Our Buffalo Plaid Towel Kit is a fun project in 2/1 twill for trying out two heddle, rigid heddle weaving. You can weave these on your four shaft loom using only three shafts if you'd like. It's a classic “buffalo plaid” which uses two equal color blocks Black plus Natural white, with the warp sett at 18 EPI. Folded over hems woven in 10/2 Black Pearl Cotton weft give a clean, less bulky finish.

Floating selvedge warps maintain a consistent edge on a 4–shaft loom and are helpful when manipulating two heddles on a rigid heddle loom.

Expand your intermediate rigid heddle skills or just have fun on your four-shaft loom weaving this quick and enjoyable project.

The kit contains Homestead Cotton Warp and Weft and Pearl Cotton hem weft sufficient for three towels, plus the pattern.

Equipment needed: Rigid Heddle loom at least 20" wide with two heddle capacity and two 12 ends per inch heddles, or a 4-Shaft loom at least 20 inches wide, stick or boat shuttles.
