January 1949 issue of the monthly Warp & Weft, published in Chicago. It opens with a reprinted short story, "The Second Christmas" by F. K. Foraandh, imagining the infant Jesus while Mary weaves. The main weaving content is a summer and winter damask block pattern for linen, with threading, tie-up, treadling for standard and rising-shed looms, warp and weft sizes, and block-size schedules for a luncheon mat. Short pieces cover tips for weaving with linen, how linen thread is made (retting of flax), a 1640 Connecticut order on growing hemp and flax, guild news, and a Christmas greeting page.
