Notes: 

Warp for these beautiful towels was provided by Vavstuga Swedish Weaving
in Shelburne Falls, MA.  The copyright draft is not available for
publishing.

Cottolin is a wonderful yarn to weave up into "hardy" kitchen towels.  The fun of creating these plain weave towels is in the choosing of colors for both warp and weft.  A small band was woven on a band loom to match the towels and sewn in to make a loop for hanging.
