Issue 31 (March 2002) of the Complex Weavers Medieval Textiles Study Group newsletter. It includes Carolyn Priest-Dorman's article on multishaft self-patterned linen weaves (point-repeat lozenge twills and pavy liseré) with drafts, Nancy McKenna's pieces on purpura and on 1.2 weft-faced compound twills (samitum, S4 and proto-lampas) with drafts, and Alexandria Abarria's article on cloth of gold, gold threads and velvet. The issue also has a coordinator's message, sample photos from a weave-structure compendium, upcoming events, a sample exchange call, and a word search.
