A profile of New York weaver and teacher Edith Huntington Snow, written for the first issue of Handweaver & Craftsman. It traces her path from weaving as convalescent therapy to founding the Snow Abbott Looms, later the Snow Looms, and describes her teaching, her materials and her design philosophy. Most of the text describes her fine linen table sets, runners, lunch cloths and silk and wool fabrics, with notes on yarns, thread counts, colors and looms. The illustrations are photographs of her work and a line drawing of an Alaskan Eskimo boot design; there are no weaving drafts.
