Sample pages
Page 1, at reduced quality. Open the document to read every page in full.
A three-page article from Handweaving News (May 1941) in which Nellie Sargent Johnson presents crackle weave patterns for four-shaft looms, adapted from pattern #219 in the old Schleelein book at the Pennsylvania Museum and from a Waern-Bugge damask pattern. Each design comes with a threading draft, key draft, drawdown, warp counts, border arrangements, tie-up, and treadling directions, including notes for Structo looms. Suggested materials are 20/1 mercerized cotton or 40/2 linen warp at 30 epi, with raw silk, rayon or linen wefts, for luncheon sets, runners and table covers.
