This will be a tea towel, a favorite weaving project of mine because no matter how many mistakes it might contain it will still at least be functional. My dishes don't care if they are dried by a less than perfect tea towel. I believe the more knowledgeable weavers said this was "Huck Weave". I like it. I think maybe some day I'll get brave and warp my own loom to make a few in a different color scheme.

I used to weave and your towel looks great. I sold my loom about 7 or 8 yrs ago because I wasn't using it and it took up so much space. I kind of miss it.

What's that saying Gillian? You never know what you've got 'til it's gone. My own loom is underused because I have so much trouble warping it.
I have an 8-shaft Woolhouse Tools table loom. It has a weavable width of about 23-24". It folds to a reasonable size and can be stored in a closet. It would be great to have a floor loom but I just don't have the space.
i used to go to a fiber cooperative for knitting (and that's where i learned to spin) once a week, and they had 2 floor looms. they were trying to sell horse blankets, so the cooperative members would frequently be there working on them. the bench was wide enough that i could sit & watch while they worked. i miss that.
ooo, I like it! You are very skillful in many things =)
