December 1981 issue of Warp and Weft, the monthly bulletin of Robin & Russ Handweavers in McMinnville, Oregon. It presents a four-shaft draft for "Peppermint Swirls," a 2/2 twill in 10/3 natural and bleached cotton with a pink cotton floss weft, where an undulating pattern comes from irregular sleying of a 20-dent reed; the full sleying sequence is given. The issue also has the editor's column on the shop's yarn sample sheets and new yarns bought in England and Scotland, a cover photograph note on a Banff School of Fine Arts wall hanging, and a review of Carol S. Kurtz's Designing for Weaving. The last page has advertisements, including a announcement of a 1982 weaving tour to New Zealand and Australia.
