An issue of Lily Mills' Practical Weaving Suggestions by Mildred Dexter giving instructions for four handwoven bags, three pillows, and one placemat, all in Lily mercerized cotton and novelty yarns. It lists warps, wefts, sett, and finishing details such as buckram and foam interlining, linings, and handles. Projects include a 7-harness twill bag with a rising-shed tie-up, an original overshot threading called "Paper Doll", tabby pillows with chenille rya and flower decoration, and a Finnish-inspired "One-and-a-half Weave" placemat on four harnesses.
