Irene Schmoller Shadow Weave Shawl

   I've had a love affair with one particular cotton yarn for more than 35 years! 
    The first time  I caressed it, warped it, wove it and took it out of the dryer, I was hooked on it as my favorite all-around weaving yarn. I've been weaving with it with great success ever since!
    Our 8/2 Aurora Earth  100% unmercerized cotton   is one of our most versatile yarns! It is grown, spun and dyed in the USA from quality cotton fibers.
   With a wide range of over 70 vibrant colors, a subtle, homespun texture, and easy care, Aurora Earth is the perfect yarn for kitchen towels, bed and bath linens and  clothing fabrics. Use it for warp and weft with confidence!
    Aurora Earth gives you great value for your money and a finished piece that will last a lifetime,  
 We've made ordering easy! Our Aurora Earth is now available on economical 20 oz cones ; convenient 2 oz Mini and 4 oz Mini cones so that you can have more fun designing with lots of color!  
 
     We've got more!  You'll love how easy it is to order and to weave our Aurora Earth kits
     We take the guesswork out of ordering by giving you just the right amount of yarn colors (plus some) you'll need to complete the project.  Saves time, money and the hassle of ordering.  Easy-to-download  step-by-step instructons are available for all our kits!
    Whether you are new to weaving (even rigid heddle weaving) or you're a pro, you'll love weaving with our Aurora Earth yarns either in a kit or designing your own fabrics.  Why not give it a try today?
  
     Want more fun?  Join our new 8/2 Kit-of-the-Month Club.      Discover a dozen project on any 4-shaft loom.  You'll receive a new kit every month with FREE SHIPPING to Club Members! 
  This Kit Club is  inspired by Interweave Press' e-book  Best of Handwoven: Yarn Series-A Dozen Projects in 8/2 Cotton  and includes:
  • A dozen projects for napkins, a blanket, placemats, table linens, and of course towels.
  • A variety of weave structures such as doubleweave, block weave, waffle-weave, ripsmatta, summer-and-winter, and huck-lace.
  • Tips for designing, weaving, and finishing fabrics in 8/2 unmercerized cotton.   
  •    However you choose it, Aurora Earth is the perfect yarn to get some great towels and table linens in your cupboards!
         Happy Weaving!
