Issue of a yarn company's weaving leaflet on hand woven fabrics for aprons and skirts using Lily pearl cottons, linen, novelty cotton, weaving wool and metallic yarns. It gives sett, yarn choices, widths and border ideas (color stripes, broken twill, small overshot units, crackle, free weaving techniques), and describes a cocktail apron shown on the cover. The last page gives complete directions for an overshot Sport Skirt in a Maltese Cross pattern on four shafts, with threading, tramping, yarn quantities and colors.
