Valley Yarns #247 Modern Monk's Belt Placemats PDF

Modern Monk’s Belt Placemats are absolutely stunning pieces made with a deceptively simple two-shuttle Monk’s Belt structure on a four-shaft loom. The hems are designed to be perfectly reversible, so each mat has two distinct, usable sides—giving you two placemats for the price of one weave!
