A two-page article from Handweaving News (August 1944) by Nellie Sargent Johnson describing handwoven hats designed and made by Elsa Koskinen, a student in her Wayne University class. It covers the hats' materials (carpet warp, rayon, wool, corn shucks), their construction and millinery finishing, and how to make display head forms from clay, plaster and pasted newspaper. The hats are all woven in simple tabby and can be made on a Hearthside loom.
