A three-page article from Handweaving News, October 1938, continuing Nellie Sargent Johnson's instructions on the Soumak stitch. It covers finishing and backing Greek Soumak pieces, a variant after Luther Hooper with plain weave between knot rows, and a Scandinavian Soumak worked on single warp threads with the design inked on the warp. It gives yarn suggestions for rugs, bags and wall hangings, with three line figures including a bag design with color regions.
