A three-page article from Handweaving News (November 1940) by Nellie Sargent Johnson presenting pine-tree patterns in crackle weave, adapted from key drafts in an old German pattern book held in a Pennsylvania museum. It gives threading drafts, key drafts and check drawdowns for patterns No. 183, 196 and 192, and explains which of the pattern blocks are woven and how they overlap. It also gives a summer and winter threading alternative on five harnesses and step-by-step instructions for planning a pine tree border.
