There are a lot of fun weaving structures in the world, but having tried Summer & Winter once, I have had a strong urge to keep playing with it.
I used another name draft to come up with this pattern, but then one of my weaving reference books reminded me that I can use different tie-ups with the same threading to make lots of variations on the same design. Since I am on a table loom, I don't actually use tie-ups at all, but rather make the variations line by line, as I am doing the actual weaving. This really opens up a myriad of possibilities for me, and as such, I decided to make a bit of a longer warp and do five different towels.
I am about halfway through the first one, and really can't wait to see how the rest turn out!
