Issue 23 (March 2000) of the Complex Weavers Medieval Textile Study Group newsletter. It opens with coordinator business: newsletter costs, address changes and an erratum for a weaving draft sent with the previous issue. Articles cover Hawaiian kapa (tapa) bark cloth making, based on a Field Museum handout, Peggy Hoyt's essay on 9000 years of flax and linen in European culture, and Harry McCoy's overview of draw harness types, uses, construction and weaving considerations. The rest is a continued annotated bibliography (Carolyn Priest-Dorman) of archaeological and medieval textile sources, an update on the December 2000 twill sample project, and a list of upcoming events.
