Silk recommendations: we do not recommend washing the dupioni silk before making your project. It takes some of the shine out the fabric. Also, our fabrics requirements are based on 42-44″ wide. Washing dupioni silk shrinks it considerably. For care instructions, we recommend spraying finished items with Scotch Guard. These place mats should be considered for fine dining and not everyday use. You may have them dry-cleaned if necessary.

In some of the early editions of this pattern, you may find the text ‘cut off’ in #3 on page 3 of 4. The rest of the sentence should say “in……..diagrams A and B on page 2.”

Pattern tip: A small adjustment but worth mentioning. In some early printings of the pattern, diagram B on page 2 instructs to cut six ties at 1 3/4″ wide by 11″ long. Cutting the ties at 2″ wide looks a little better — 1 3/4″ is a bit too skinny!
