A 12-page alphabetical glossary of weaving terms by Madelyn van der Hoogt, dated 1990. It defines weave structures and related concepts, including supplementary-weft unit weaves (summer and winter, Bergman, Quigley, half-dukagang, tied overshot), lampas and beiderwand, damask and turned twills, double weave, piqué, and compound tabby/twill. It ends with a 'Family Tree of Weaves' chart that classifies weaves as simple, compound-element, or compound. One figure shows a drawdown of weft-faced compound tabby.
