Berta Frey describes how to weave a modern twin-size cotton bedspread in a Swedish lace (turned) structure using Lily's Floss. It gives threading drafts for 40-, 30- and 20-inch looms, with the spread built from panels joined by decorative seams, plus tie-up, treadling units, finishing, yardage and shrinkage test results. A close-up photograph shows the finished spread.
