Bumberet Inspired Towels

Traditionally Bumberet Towels are woven on a 4 shaft loom and are threaded in groups of three. These towels have brought bumberet to rigid heddle weavers!

The use of a pick-up stick creates a richly textured and eye catching towel reminiscent of a traditional bumberet towel.
