Free 4-Shaft Loom Weaving Projects and Patterns

There's so much you can accomplish with just four shafts! 4-shaft loom weaving opens the door to weaving with great technique. And you won't believe what you can accomplish: color and weave effects, twill, huck, lace, overshot and more!

In honor of the amazing, versatile four-shaft loom, we compiled four beautiful free 4-shaft loom weaving projects, available to you in this downloadable eBook. See the possibilities of 4-shaft weaving come to life with these patterns for handwoven dish towels and napkins.

• Simple Twill Towels by Margaret Gaynes - Handwoven towels make perfect gifts, too; everyone can always use more towels. This project will teach you the basics of weaving twill towels on a four-shaft loom.

• Dutch Flag Napkins by Ericka de Ruiter - This project will teach you how to design an attractive stripe sequence, a skill you can carry with you to countless future weaving projects.

• Kitchen Towels in Four All-Natural Fibers by Kate Lange-McKibben - It is an amazing experience to weave the same towels in four different all-natural yarns: pearl & unmercerized cotton, pure linen, and a cotton/linen blend (cottolin). Choose a yarn to explore or weave coordinated sets of towels in all four yarns to test their absorbency and durability in your kitchen.

• Selections from Twelve Months, Twelve Weaves, Twelve Towels by Karen Folland - Practice overshot and turned monk's belt in the two towels included in this eBook. These towels were selected from a project where a weaving study group wove a different towel every month for a year. Project includes tips for your own weaving study group!
