An issue of Practical Weaving Suggestions, published by Lily Mills, presented as a rhyming story of two weavers planning Christmas gifts from two long warps. It gives directions for a green 18-inch warp threaded in Periwinkle overshot and a red 28-inch Summer and Winter warp, with yarn articles, sleying, threadings and treadlings. Projects include aprons, shoe bags, a book cover, bib, towels, table mats, tree sheets, napkins, a stole, evening blouse, mandarin jacket, cummerbund and cottage curtains. Color photographs show the finished items.
