An article from Master Weaver (No. 7, January 1953) on weaving identical borders on all four sides of a square piece using only four shafts and one warp beam. It gives profile and unit drafts, tie-ups and treadlings for lace weave and swivel, then discusses a simplified single-block overshot (spot-weave) on three shafts with a fourth shaft carrying colored pattern warp for vertical borders. A complete project draft is included with color, sleying, treadling and loom tips. The last page begins a short 'Weaving Terminology' item quoting remarks from Mary M. Atwater on vague technical terms.
