This beautiful Ruana was woven by an R&M Yarns customer, Ann of Indiana. Beautiful work! (sett is 8 epi).
Ann says " That yarn really blooms when washed. I am enjoying weaving with it." (natural & hand-dyed shown)
Our PE (production excess) cotton comes in periodically from various sources (usually every 4-5 months). Even though this is a very high quality yarn, it may vary slightly in color shade from cone to cone even if it is the same name.
The PE Cotton Yarns that we offer are a mixture of ring-spun and open-end spun as well as reactive and direct dyed. Sometimes they are listed in the color chip if they are RS or OE, but not always. We will send what we have and each new shipment contains a new mixture.

Warp is "Warm Brown" 8/2 Open End-Spun Cotton with Black & White accents. Sett was 16 epi; woven plain weave; a few warp ends were tripled to give an indication of a "line."
The finished towel was very absorbent with a look and feel of "linen." The color chip is a little off; it's similar to a "chamois" color as in the photo above.
"Bumberet" Pattern sett at 20 ends per inch.
(Handwoven Mar/Apr 2015)
I wasn't sure about the absorbency of these beautiful towels because of the "open-end" spun fibers that produced a somewhat "dense" finished towel. But after washing and drying, I was pleasantly surprised how super absorbent they were! As soon as the towel touched a puddle of water, it immediately absorbed it!
This yarn would also make nice placemats & table runners. It has great stability and lays beautifully on the table!
