After a lot of research, I learned there is a difference between Double Weave and Double Width. Unfortunately I learned some of this after loading my loom, the pattern I chose wasn’t meant to be connected on one side, which produced the white line down the center.
In progress, from the top, open side and closed side …
I have 24” of weaving space but during my test piece I discovered it was best to go a bit narrower for this project so I made it 19” wide, this is how it came off the loom …
Well you may have learned a few things along the way, but I still think it came out awesome! And I bet it’s going to be nice and soft to towel off with after a shower.

I still really like it and I bet your son does, too. It’s so special when someone crafts something especially for you in your favourite colour scheme. I love the diagonal pattern. I had no idea you could weave a double layer of fabric on a loom, so I learned a thing today.

I asked him today how he liked it, he said it’s okay but not worth making more so I asked him to explain … the tea towels I make are 10x better than store bought ones but the bath towel wasn’t that much better so use my yarn for other things.
I’m planning to make one for my younger son too because he’s interested in trying one.
