I'm studying textiles and this winter we've been taking an advanced weaving course. And when I realized we could make terry cloth at lab class, I just had to make this...



I made it from scratch, from the design and the programming of the loom to the finished towel.

Now I'm ready for the day when the Vogons come!

I just got a second beam for my little loom so I can try to make terrycloth.  I don't know if I am motivated enough to try something as large or advanced enough as your towel.

I know where your towel is.  Wink

I have a fond addiction to the past, a morbid fascination with the future and a tenuous interest in the here and now.
