Atwater Bronson Lace

I have a towel woven in linen, that a friend made, that I have always loved.  It has a dogwood pattern in plain weave, with the rest of the towel in Atwater-Bronson lace. It requires more than 4 shafts, or so I thought, until I came across an article about pick-up in an old Handwoven magazine.  It was worth trying, so I warped my sample loom last night while watching sappy Hallmark movies.

I'm ready to try the technique.  If it works, I may try a sampler of some designs I made. 

Dishes are done, now onto laundry and vacuuming.  Then I will allow myself to weave.  Hooray for a day off during the week.
