An article by Agnes K. Nielsen explaining how to imitate two-block four-harness patterns on a two-harness loom, using two colored shuttles and alternating blocks instead of tabby. It gives threading and treadling directions for five patterns: Lasting Beauty, Four O'Clock, Queen's Patch, Sugar Loaf or Window Sash, and Monk's Belt. It also covers warp setts, special sleying for Monk's Belt, an inlaid-center Monk's Belt variation, a rug layout based on Lasting Beauty, and suggestions for draperies and furnishings. Photographs of woven samples made at King's Park State Hospital illustrate the patterns.
