Here are some of the towels I did from the article in the Jan/Feb 2006 Handwoven by Vicki Tardy. I found it very interesting to see the 'tracking' that showed up. These are just out of the dryer, not ironed!

Swedish Lace and Tracking
Some days you just want to sit and hem towels... well, some do-some don't!

Beautiful towels, I think the tracking adds a nice element.
ReplyDeleteExciting-looking fabric. Why is the name of the Swedish Lace?
ReplyDeleteNice textures. I like especially the red one.
ReplyDeleteThese towels were woven using Swedish Lace. A two block weave. The places where some plain weave shows up has what I call tracking. It looks like a twill, but is plain weave. My fibers, sett, and beat all make it happen.
