Mary Meigs Atwater describes the Shuttle-Craft Shop, a small weaving enterprise she founded in the mining camp of Basin, Montana, as a diversion for isolated local women. She discusses which groups of women took to weaving and how the shop moved from four-harness overshot to Summer and Winter weave. She describes the pieces shown in the illustrations (rugs, knitting bags, pillow top, card-woven girdle), mentions blue-print drafts of old patterns including John Landes patterns, and appeals to club members to share old drafts. It contains no weaving drafts.
