A cone of 16/2 dark teal cotton found its way to my stash.
It sat on the shelf for a long time. I have not been using 16/2 and since I haven’t
used it I haven’t collected many cones of this size. Recent waffle adventures
were the perfect chance to use what little 16/2 I had.

The lighter stripes in this warp are actually a lovely pale
grey. I expected the bright colors in the variegated yarn to really pop where
they peek through in the center of each waffle cell. It seems the teal yarn has
a bit more loft than yarns in previous warps. It bloomed slightly in the
wash and now the colors barely show at all.

The reverse side is nice though. That is where those colors
really sing. When the towels were all finished and washed I wished they'd been hemmed
to the other side making the reverse the "right" side.
The nice thing is, when drying hands, both sides of the towel are easily visible and enjoyed. And besides, there
is always the next warp.
