A Lily Mills Company leaflet by Harriet Tidball of the Shuttle Craft Guild giving complete directions for a striped, translucent handwoven drapery fabric. Alternating 1-inch stripes of Lily Pearl Cotton size 3 and 5-inch stripes of fine novelty yarn are woven as plain weave on a four-harness twill threading. The text covers yarn quantities, sectional-beam and chain warping, sleying, weaving technique, take-up, joining panels, and making tie-back bands, plus a variation design. The final page lists the colors of Lily Pearl Cotton and Novelty Yarns.
