The Project
The recommended yarn (4 tubes of Brassard 8/2) is enough to weave four towels and have some leftover to add to your stash. If you want to weave lots and lots of towels, here are the numbers, the math is up to you!
Warp (rigid heddle thread count is total ends, not working ends)
Wine: 135 threads (4 and 8-shaft), 122 threads (rigid-heddle)
Brick: 170 threads (4 and 8-shaft), 144 (rigid-heddle)
Rouge Scarlet: 135 threads (4 and 8-shaft), 122 (rigid-heddle)
Vieil Or: 60 threads (4 and 8-shaft), 88 (rigid-heddle)
Weft: approximately 440 yds per towel
The suggested colors for this project are (left to right) Wine #8264, Brick #4270, Rouge Scarlet #5116, and Vieil Or #1418.
