December 1968 issue of Warp & Weft, a monthly bulletin from Robin & Russ Handweavers of McMinnville, Oregon. It includes the editor's column, a note on the cover photograph of a power-loom warp beam being wound with worsted yarns, and a placemat project in 10/2 ramie woven as straight twill. The monthly sample is "Natural and White, a Muted Checkerboard," a huck variation in 20/3 ramie and glossy rayon, with a four-shaft threading, six-treadle tie-up for counterbalanced and jack looms, a 40-shot treadling sequence, and thread and fabric cost figures. The issue closes with classified ads and supplier advertisements for yarns, looms, and books.
