A three-page article from the November 1938 Handweaving News by Nellie S. Johnson on brocade or embroidery weaving, in which a pattern weft floats over the warp between plain-weave tabby shots.

It gives 4-harness twill threading and tie-up drafts, cross-section paper plans, and suggestions for warp and weft materials and sett.
