April 1958 Portfolio Edition of the Shuttle Craft Bulletin (Vol. XXXV, No. 4), published by the Shuttle Craft Guild in Bedford, Nova Scotia. It opens with Harriet Tidball's essay defending traditional weaving terminology (including her proposed name "Atwater Lace" for the Bronson weave), then gives an Atwater-based Summer and Winter recipe for church weaving. The main feature is Mary E. Black's beginner study "Experimenting is Fun", which works through seven experiments on one hybrid four-harness texture draft, varying weft threads, sett, and threading changes. It closes with Cliff Hotchkiss on weaving for the church (Summer and Winter altar hangings, reversible seasonal colors, 8-harness drafts) and the Loom-Side Market advertisements.
