A short 1936 instructional piece by Nellie S. Johnson on simple laid-in (supplementary weft) decoration woven on a plain weave ground. It explains the hit-and-miss method step by step, with suggested yarns and sett for towels, luncheon sets, rugs and a table runner. Diagrams show hit-and-miss, open-warp, diagonal, circle and square inlay, and a sheet of simple border designs (trees, diagonals, squares) for towels.
