February 1949 issue of Warp & Weft, a monthly handweaving newsletter edited by Gladys Rogers Brophil in Chicago. It reports on weaving news (the Joliet Weavers Guild, Marjorie Burd of Sacramento), describes a faster method of warping a sectional beam loom without winding spools, and gives a draft and treadling for a small block pattern called City Square Gardens, woven on four shafts with 20/2 cotton and rayon pattern thread. Other items cover color psychology, planning symmetrical and asymmetrical plaids, a reminiscence of an 1884 magazine illustration of strip weaving, and weaving anecdotes about Lincoln and Washington. The last page announces the formation of Gladys Rogers Brophil, Inc. and a price increase.
