A three-page October 1941 Handweaving News issue by Nellie Sargent Johnson on designing eight-block Summer and Winter patterns for a 10-harness loom. It explains the key draft, the four-thread threading units for each pattern block, and the tie and pattern harnesses. It then shows how to vary the design by combining blocks into verticals, horizontals, checkerboards and stepped combinations (Figures 5-15). It also covers solid borders and weaving with several colors, and offers a sampler and photographs for sale.
