May 1950 issue of Warp & Weft, a monthly newsletter for handweavers published in Chicago by Gladys Rogers Brophil. The featured project is "Loom Shirring": a four-shaft Bird's Eye threading woven in fuzzy nylon yarn, with evenly spaced white overshot threads that are pulled up to make shirring for baby and children's garments, with a garment layout diagram, sett, and treadling. Other items include a guide to weaving a small sample before committing to a full warp, a questions-and-answers column, guild and exhibition news from Chicago, Texas and Oklahoma, a book review, award news, and classified ads and workshop notices.
