A 1941 instruction pamphlet by Mary Meigs Atwater of the Shuttle-Craft Guild on weaving narrow bands on the inkle loom. It describes the Old English and the table-model New American looms, how to warp them, and how to open the two sheds. It then covers plain-weave warp-faced patterns, pick-up patterns by the Scandinavian/European threading, and the native American system (Navajo, Mexican, Bolivian, Philippine). Six numbered diagrams give color-order drafts, threadings and pattern figures, with photographs of sample bands.
