A 1928 Handicrafter article by Mary Meigs Atwater introducing an open-work (lace-work) weave of Scandinavian origin on four shafts. It gives threading and treadling drafts for a linen curtain and for a scarf or shawl, with sett, yarn choices, border arrangements, and loom tie-up transpositions for treadle and table looms. It also suggests variations such as dress fabrics, baby blankets, drapery with grouped warp threads, and six-treadle tie-ups.
