In this video, I'm conducting the long promised fiber experiment. Many months ago, I presented in a video my project of weaving 8 dishtowels that will all have different weft yarn. My goal was to determine which yarn was the best to use when weaving dishtowels. And this is what I achieved in this video with the help of three different absorbency tests. #handwoven #weaving #loom

THE PATTERNS
For this project, I designed the warp pattern myself. For the weft pattern, I used the drafts provided in Anne Dixon Book: The Handweaver’s Pattern Directory in between pages 32 to 36.
