Weaving Houndstooth Wash Cloths on a Rigid Heddle Loom

Hi friends! More weaving content for you.

So now that I know I can make things with my loom and they actually look good and function properly (!), I'm on a mission to replace all of my hand towels and wash cloths.

These houndstooth wash cloths are deceptively easy. It's literally not even a pattern. It's regular-ass weaving, just with two warp strands and two weft strands of alternating colors. That's it.

Oh and yes I've used these wash cloths in the shower already, and they're perfect. Get weaving, these are so dang fast!
