SWEET!!!

I'm done with the towels!
i just cut them off the loom.
They came out a lot better than i'd hoped for. i'm tickled s%#tless .
I noticed one mistake where i missed a row, other than that the pattern is good.
my selvage is even, but i didn't use a floating selvege so the first thread on either side is loose in places, but i'll sew them over anyways so nobody will know but li'l ol'e me :)( and you of course ).
So, now i was going to weave a crossover scarf next ( i got all kinds of yarn horded for that one), but i think i will weave another set ( or two ) of towels first (those things are addictive!!).
i picked out the "friendship towels in huckaback" from the interweave press "design collection #18". so, off i go to figure out the warp and weft (skipping away ...tralalala....
Ps. so far no complaint from "the arm".

Well done! They're gorgeous! (Trust me. Most people won't notice one missed row. They'll be distracted by the overall effect and the fact that you wove them yourself!)
