Notes

Warped:
12 white
12 grey
12 white
24 aqua
12 white
12 grey
12 white
12 grey
72 aqua (centre)
repeat backwards for stripes.
20 picks for hems in lighter cotton.
Woven solid colour in each of the 3 colours.
Even though Ashford has a project on the RH using a 15 dent heddle I feel that the weave is a little flimsy and would give a more substantial feeling towel at a closer sett. Does have a lovely soft feel to it.
