January 1972 issue of Warp & Weft, the monthly newsletter of Robin & Russ Handweavers in McMinnville, Oregon. It includes the editor's note on inventory and new yarn shipments, a cover photo description of warping linen at a Scottish mill, and a review of James Arnold's The Shell Book of Country Crafts. The main feature is the 'Snow Crocus' fabric, a 4-shaft twill-type suiting woven of single-ply wool yarns, with threading, tie-up, treadling, selvage and finishing hints, and a cost breakdown. The issue ends with book lists (spinning, macrame, the firm's own publications), classified yarn and book ads, and the Weaver's Marketplace.
