Doubleweave sampler

Late last year, I worked on this sampler from the book Doubleweave by Jennifer Moore. I used no.5 pearl cotton sett at 30epi (15 per layer). The sampler covers all kinds of 4 shaft doubleweave, and I enjoyed weaving it. Above are assorted small sections, some open sided, some tubular, some using colour and weave effects. Below is stuffed horizontal ribs, quilting, leno and brooks bouquet.

This is doubleweave pickup which takes a long time, but is very satisfying to do. Once the current towels are done, I'm planning another doubleweave project.
