A few years ago - maybe four? - I had a lot more free time on my hands. I also had grand ideas about weaving a project a month. Towels, place mats, runners, ordinary cloth, you name it. It's taken a while, but I'm starting to make time for hobbies (other than knitting). Eric and I turned out 2 rugs over the last year (simple log cabin rugs that are really nothing more than a slight of hand for the eye). We also wove one
shawl - our first project using tencel. I am sorry to admit that we took pictures of nothing.
The weaving stash has long contained some cones of cotton - red and white:

We plan to use these together to make a few Star Dishtowels:

(a free project available from
Handwoven.)
Before we warp, we do have a decision - which towel? The all-over star pattern, pictured on the right? Or the striped version, pictured on the left? Readers, care to weigh in?

I vote for the all over star pattern. I thought at first it was check but I see on closer examination it is not. Go for it.
