Workshop handout by Mary Elizabeth Laughlin on weaving block and twill structures on more than four shafts (up to 10 or more). It gives threading, tie-up, treadling and pattern-design notes for huck lace, summer and winter, crackle (with an eight-harness block/treadling chart) and corkscrew twill, including a corkscrew twill vs. shadow weave comparison. The rest is mostly 10-shaft draft forms, some filled in as samples (huck lace, summer and winter with a boy figure, crackle, corkscrew and undulating twill, mix-and-match twill and satin, twill samplers) and some left blank. It ends with an excerpt on block design from her book "More Than Four" with rules for designing in blocks.
