Folio 14 of a Navajo rug series issued by the Osma Gallinger Tod Studio, covering how Navajo rugs and blankets are woven and how the tapestry technique can be imitated on modern looms. It gives row-by-row instructions for interlocking weft threads and for weaving diagonal lines (40° and 52° triangles), with diagrams. It also includes a plate of nine Navajo rug and blanket designs with notes on colors and uses, and a short introduction on Navajo materials, dyes, looms and the two types of Navajo weaving.
