A two-page February 1944 issue of Handweaving News by Nellie Sargent Johnson, devoted to projects for the Hearthside loom, a small heddle-based loom sold through Sears & Roebuck. It gives instructions for wool scarves and belts for servicemen, notes the switch from a plastic to a metal heddle, and explains how to beat the weft close. It also includes a warping order for a striped rug woven with looped stockings and directions for a draw string bag.
