Bound set of the first four monthly Shuttle-Craft Guild Bulletins (September-December 1924) written by Mary Meigs Atwater in Cambridge, Massachusetts. They cover the economics of hand-weaving (pricing, standards of quality, consignment versus outright sales, dress-fabric production) and a co-operative plan for buying weaving materials at a 10% discount. They also include two coverlet pattern drafts with treadling (No. 1, a White Rose/Lover's Knot design from John Landes, and No. 2 from Matilda Kimball Bacon's 1820 coverlet), twelve Scotch tartan warping schemes, and notes on weaving tubing and double-width cloth. Also included are a member's directions for a homemade warping frame and a news item on a member's craft shop.
