January 1951 issue of Warp & Weft, a small newsletter from the Norwood Loom Company, edited by Gladys Rogers Brophil. It announces the transfer of the Brophil studio in Winnetka, Illinois to Celeste Fentress, and reports on an Anni Albers exhibition and a Norwegian weaving school. The main feature is an adaptable wool plaid sample, based on the Elliot tartan, with a 4-shaft threading, tie-up, thread rotation and sleying for a 15-dent reed. Supporting articles cover buying, handling and finishing wool yarns, yarn numbering and yardage calculation, a garment yardage guide, a review of Simple Tartan Weaving by Agnes MacDonald, and short notes on tartan dyes, ramie and Hesiod.
