A two-page portfolio item from the December 1953 Shuttle-Craft Bulletin, with a cover and one page of text carrying two pasted fabric swatches. The author reports on handweaving with new synthetic and blend yarns (Nylkara, nylon, orlon), giving sources, warp settings, sleying and observations on weaving behavior. She notes that the orlon is fuzzy and springy and sheds poorly at close settings, while the nylon warps and weaves easily and develops diagonal water-mark texture patterns when washed. Neither fiber shrank.
