An issue of Lily Mills Company's "Practical Weaving Suggestions" (Volume XXII) presenting Märta Page's "Planned Weaving" approach, in which the cloth design is combined with the garment pattern before the warp is cut. It features the Fledermaus-Shortie jacket and the Pelican Bag, with material designed by Kay Geary, plus Geary's color and yarn suggestions for four versions of the jacket (travel, vacation, evening, streetwear). Yarn lists give Lily Mills articles, colors and amounts for the jacket and both bags. The issue contains no weaving drafts, only photographs and illustrations; the jacket is woven in tabby and twill treadling, with Persian rug-knot tassels and soumak stitches.
