Notes

I wove these placemats using the draft from the Weaver's Book of 8 Shaft Patterns, page 209, example 679.  These placemats were fun and fast to weave using carpet warp.  I wove three different versions of the placemats: blocks overall; stripes; and blocks on just the ends.  They are easy to care for, and they look great with my Fiestaware dishes!  If you try them, just remember to use a temple to retain the width of the piece.  I used some vinyl slats to separate each placemat and to leave warp for the fringe.  I overcast the edge using a honeycomb stitch on my sewing machine.
