Blooming Bouquet Towels

Bring the beauty of spring to your loom with our wonderfully thick Blooming Bouquet Towel Kit — a thoughtfully designed weaving project inspired by spring flowers in full bloom. This design comes to life through the combination of three distinct 100% cotton yarns, each chosen for its unique texture and strength. Queen Ann’s Lace and Cloud Cotton Bouclé create a softly varied, tactile warp, while Aurora Earth in the weft brings balance with its smooth, steady feel. Together, they form a fabric that is richly textured, durable, and full of dimension. While the weaving structure remains simple — plain weave for rigid heddle or twill for 4-shaft looms — the interest in this project comes from how the yarns interact. As you weave, you’ll see the cloth slowly build into a layered surface, where soft loops, smooth strands, and subtle shifts in color work together in harmony. Like a gathered bouquet of wildflowers, each element has its own character yet blends beautifully to create something truly special. The finished towels are wonderfully thick and absorbent, made to be used and loved—whether in your kitchen, given as a thoughtful gift, or enjoyed as a small handmade touch in your everyday routine.
