Valley Yarns #238 Ebb & Flow Double Wide Chenille Throw - 8 Shafts WIF

Have you always wanted to make a blanket, but your loom is too narrow? Sewing panels together is fine but learning how to weave double wide is another option - and Valley Yarns Ebb Flow Double Wide Chenille Throw is the perfect place to start! This project is woven in double width plain weave with a Bamboo warp with Chenille weft, resulting in easy weaving and a gorgeously snuggly fabric that is both machine washable and dryable. Use this draft as a jumping-off point to designing with your own colors and stripe sequences! This design is in WIF format, so weavers can electronically store and modify weaving drafts, display them graphically with weaving software, and use them to drive computer-assisted looms.
