Handicrafter, Vol. III, No. 8 (January-February 1932)
Issue of The Handicrafter (January/February 1932), a U.S. craft magazine published by Emile Bernat & Sons. Weaving content includes Agnes K. Nielsen's directions for weaving four-harness block patterns (Monk's Belt, Queen's Patch, Lasting Beauty, Four O'Clock, Sugar Loaf/Window Sash) on a two-harness loom, with treadling sequences and drafts. Luther Hooper's article covers the history and technique of tapestry weaving, with loom construction drawings. Ruby V. Harstine writes on crackle-weave runners and towels and a Swedish Jämtland pattern, with drafts and treadling. The issue also has non-weaving crafts (Mimbres-style pottery, a New Mexico wood-carver, pewter work, paper lamp shades, coping saw work), a note on a tapestry school in New York, book reviews including Atwater's Shuttlecraft Recipe Book, and loom advertisements.
