An article from Master Weaver (April 1952) on analyzing woven pattern structure without drawing down a full repeat. It explains how to identify the weave from a small sample, convert units to graphical short drafts (profiles), and develop them into full drafts for lace and summer-and-winter. For overshot, all-over spot, and crackle, which lack distinct units, it describes numerical short drafts and how to read float lengths and positions from a sample.
