Page 1, at reduced quality. Open the document to read every page in full.
A two-page article from Handweaving News in which Nellie Sargent Johnson describes modern weft-brocaded belts bought in the Peruvian mountains. She gives instructions for weaving them on a heddle (rigid heddle) loom or Hearthside Loom with carpet warp or knitting cotton and bright wool brocade wefts, based on diagonal patterns. The second page covers warp pattern belts, the difference between this skip brocade and regular brocade, and a drawdown grid of the skip pattern from belt No. 2.
