A Dryad Handicrafts leaflet (No. 79) explaining needle weaving as an embroidery technique, in which threads are withdrawn from a band of fabric and the remaining threads are woven or darned with coloured yarns. It covers choice of materials and weaving threads, working a simple bar over groups of threads, planning patterns on squared paper, and finishing the corners of borders. Photographs show a stool seat, belt, child's apron and rug, with diagrams and a colour chart of border designs.
