My daughter and her husband are expecting their first child and I would like to weave them some nice baby bath towels. I have a ton of 8/2 unmercerized cotton and I see from studying Weavolution that a sett of 20 EPI would work, and also that I should use much finer yarn for the hems to avoid bulk. I have this notion that I read somewhere that waffle weave has peculiarities about take-up in the width and something about PPI. Of course, now I have no idea where I read this or even if it was actually about waffle weave. Anyway, I do not want to make a waffle weave welcome mat (too dense) or a waffle weave guitar strap (too narrow). I would welcome any and all advice. I have time - she's not due till July.
Thanks,
Agnes
