A first-person, humorous account by Madeleine Burrage of her mother's return to hand weaving in America after learning in England in 1914. It follows the search for an old Swedish loom, the purchase of a simple modern loom, and the hunt for real wool, a scourer, carder and spinner. The wool was finally dyed blue and woven into cloth for a suit. It is anecdotal and gives no technical weaving instructions.
