Another Melin Tregwynt weave, this one is called Hen Llys. #4 of 5 that I’m copying from them because I fell in love with their weaves!!

This doubleweave can be done on 8-shafts!

I’m going to start dishtowels in black, white, and green!

I’m going to 3x the pattern squares, so each big square should be about 1” in size. 132 threads per big square + small square repeat, so 5.5” per repeat and 4” per just big square. So…. 5.5+5.5+4 = 15” towel at reed

Sett is 12 epi (24 epi doubleweave)

4 yard warp

So at warp board:

96÷2 = 48 ÷ 2 colors = 24x warp board B+W (3 sets)
36÷2 = 18 ÷ 2 colors = 9x warp board W+G (2 sets)
