An article reviewing the common methods of condensing weaving drafts and expanding them back into full threading drafts. It covers repeat markings for twills, short drafts for overshot that record float lengths, spot weaves, and unit-based weaves (summer and winter, crackle, lace, huckaback, turned twills, double weave) using profile or numerical short drafts. Diagrams illustrate each method, and the article ends with a pointer to Mary Atwater's Shuttlecraft Book.
