This is a really good shot of what this color really is. Sometimes when you take a photo and then use your computer to show it, the colors don't cross over. The green color is "loden" and the brown is just "brown".
This is the six shaft dimity draft using my 'mock plain weave'. I used the two colors - green & brown - then placed two shots of each color the whole length of the towel. This is 8/2 cotton sett at 18 epi.

beautiful!
Just lovely! Please, please, could you share the way you get those great selvages??? Double setts, double in the reed, how many yarns, floating yarn edge?? Nothing looks that great at my house! Fran
I did use a floating selvedge. But really, I think it's just practice. One tip is to use the color of your weft as the color of your floating selvedges. If your warp is white, and weft is blue. Use blue as the floater. Could be same size as warp or weft. The color is the tip.
Okay; thank you, Ann. You are a very good weaver!
