Towels upon Towels

The Teal/Turquoise towels are off to their new owner. Well, 4 of them are. I'm left with two that I've listed on Etsy:



And after a terrible struggle with a very weak warp yarn, I finished weaving a bunch of crackle towels. I ended up using nearly a can of hairspray to try to keep the warp threads from breaking. I also used a paper clip temple to help minimize draw in. It all worked quite well and after a disastrous first towel, I ended up with just a few broken ends here and there.

I've just washed them and they're waiting for pressing and ironing right now, but here's a preview:



I've been complaining about the lack of sun, and you'll note that picture was taken with a flash. Of course today, we get sun but I've had too much work to be able to take a break for pressing and hemming, so no pictures yet. Boo!

That does remind me, though, that I should go use the sun to take a picture of the socks I just finished knitting :)
