Other Ideas for 8/2 Cotton Yarn
8/2
cotton yarn was used for this pillow in a turned twill patterns.
Colors are Natural, Turquoise Blue and Kiwi. This would also be
nice as a dishtowel. Set is 24 dpi.
Detail
of a series of dishtowel also woven with our 8/2 cotton yarn. This is
another 8 harness pattern woven at 24 dpi, but any twill would look
good.
Warp color are Yellow, Kiwi, Turquoise Blue and Blue. Weft is Deep Navy.
I found this overshot pattern in "The Ashford Book of Patterns from Four to Eight Shafts" and really liked the outcome. The warp are four random colors of 8/2 to give it some dimension.
You could just use one color of your choice, or use this project to de-stash your weaving yarn. Sett is at 18 epi. The ground weft is also one color of 8/2 (pick one) and the pattern weft in white is 8/4 Cotton, which gives it nice coverage.
I also wove another version with a doubled 8/2 in dark navy as the pattern weft and found that this combination brings out the tones of the background more.
Either way, pick your favorite colors and have fun weaving. Make it your own. :-)
