A short article from Master Weaver explaining Bronson Lace, a linen-friendly weave derived from spot Bronson in which the same pattern block repeats and is tied down to avoid long floats. It gives threading and treadling units for floats of 3, 5 and 7, extends the principle to 8 shafts with 6 pattern blocks, and discusses the number of possible block combinations and patterns. It also walks through designing a pattern from a draw-down and profile to a threading, treadling and tie-up, and notes practical issues such as sett and sagging warp ends.
