If you are like us, your dining room table doesn't get a lot of use for dining. That doesn't mean it shouldn't look great when it's not being used! This elegant overshot runner can show off your table but also do equally fine duty as a dresser scarf or accent anywhere you need a little color and pattern. The 8/2 Cottolin is sett at 20 epi in the warp and is also the tabby weft. The 100% wool Highland is the pattern weft. For the majority of the weaving, you will alternate picks of these two yarns, which creates a firm background fabric of cottolin with a three-dimensional pattern of Highland that decorates the surface. We made a point of picking two colors that were similar to each other to emphasize the difference in texture. The kit makes one table runner with finished dimensions of 19" x 44" plus fringe. It can be hand washed and air dried, with a brief tumble in the dryer to fluff the fabric.

You will need:

• 23" weaving width
• 4 harnesses
• 10 dent reed
• 445 heddles
• 2 boat shuttles
• 2 bobbins

We used 8/2 Cottolin #1418 Old Gold and Highland color Foliage. If you would like your runner to be in these colors, simply order the kit above. If you would like to select different colors, please see our 8/2 Cottolin page and the Highland page to view the available options. Then return to this page, order the kit, and tell us your two color selections in the box above.
