Striped Tea Towel Set Pattern

Tea towels are a great weaving project for weavers in all stages of their adventures.

These tea towels have a bold but simple stripe pattern that is easy to weave on a rigid heddle loom.

This pattern is for 2 tea towels that are woven on the same warp. Set up your loom once for more than one weaving! Learn more about getting multiple weavings with the same warp here.

Just like all of my other rigid heddle patterns, this one can also be woven on any floor loom or multi-shaft loom.

Color Block Scarf Pattern

This scarf is my favorite rigid heddle project for beginner rigid heddle weavers! It is actually the pattern I use the most often in my beginner classes. Find out why this pattern is my favorite for new rigid heddle weavers here.

It features a simple color block pattern and uses a warm wool yarn that will continue to get softer as you wash it.

Even though this is a rigid heddle pattern, it can easily be converted to a floor loom pattern since it is plain weave.

Pattern includes recommended materials with total amounts needed as well as extra tips and aftercare information.

Weaving Organization Spreadsheet

weaving organization weaving community

When it comes to organization it also pays to take a little bit of time to compile a list of all of your weavings and their info in one place. I created a spreadsheet that I keep in my Google Drive so that I can access it anytime, even on my phone!

This may not seem like a big deal, but if you’re ever talking to anyone about your work and you’re away from a computer – all you have to do is look at your phone to see how much you priced your weaving at!

When I first started my studio practice I didn’t have this and I would constantly be re-measuring artwork and trying to remember how many hours I spent on each piece…. etc. The spreadsheet has helped immensely whenever I apply for a show. I NEVER remember prices or sizes. Sometimes I don’t even remember the year it was finished….

I want you to be organized too, so I’ve made the same spreadsheet I use available to you!
