December 1981-January 1982 issue of the Weavers Guild of Minnesota newsletter. It carries guild news (board minutes, treasurer's report, class schedule, new members, upcoming speakers Joyce Harter and Lila Nelson), a library review of The Fabric Catalog, classifieds, and member profiles of board directors. The main technical piece is Paul O'Connor's article on drafting for weft-faced weaving with three harnesses, covering straight twill and point twill (Krokbragd) with diamond-grid drawdowns and color-rotation motifs. Other features include a report on a Duluth fiber and quilt show, Cherilyn Nelson's article on textiles from the Abu Seiffein churchyard in Akhmim, Egypt, a piece on study groups, and the Guild's Dye Garden publication A Guide to Dye Plants.
