A weaving supplement from The Handicrafter (Vol. VI, No. II, Part II) with several articles. Mary Atwater's "Warps and Wefts" covers warp settings, yarn choices and fabric texture for coverlets, linens, tweeds and suitings. Veva Carr describes a bedroom woven in "Right and Left" crackle weave (spreads, rugs, curtains, dresser scarf, towels), and Florence Crocker writes on hand weaving for the house. Atwater's "New Techniques in Summer and Winter Weave" gives drafts and treadlings, including the "Botanical Garden" couch cover, and Waldon Fawcett profiles the Willow Cottage Weavers of Nantucket.
