Issue of The Weaver (Vol. 5, No. 4, Oct.-Nov. 1940) with articles for handweavers. Mary Atwater answers a question on Bronson (spot) weave and Swedish lace weave, and also contributes a crackle-weave drapery pattern, "Rain on the River". Florence Fowle explains faster loom warping and beaming, with a tassel-head device and a warp-tying knot shown in illustrations. Other pieces cover a hand-woven wool suit, wall hangings adapted from Guatemalan textiles, Navajo-method parka, jacket and sofa pieces, leno-effect table mats, striped bags and runners with treadling schedules, curtains, and an exhibit by the Weaver's Guild of Saint Louis. The issue ends with a Bernat loom advertisement.
