Weaver, Vol. 4, No. 4 (October-November 1939)
October-November 1939 issue of The Weaver, published by Emile Bernat & Sons Co. It mixes weaving instruction and drafts with features on exhibits and guilds. Articles cover pictorial weaving in Bronson weave (coat of arms, stage coach), crackle and summer and winter on a long linen warp, a woven sheaf stitch with charted motifs, and many ways of weaving the Honeysuckle pattern (overshot, Italian, Lace-Bronson, Mattor, Halkrus). Further pieces cover leno gauze on a non-harness loom, Mary Atwater's answers on tie-ups and her series on four- and eight-harness twills with numbered drafts, setting up a weaving exhibit in period rooms, a trip to Peru with ancient Peruvian textiles and looms, and the Seattle Weavers Guild. It ends with a Bernat loom advertisement.
