A short how-to article from Master Weaver (No. 31, January 1957) on making and using a doubling stand, a simple accessory for winding two or more different yarns together for use as a single weft. It explains why combining yarns in one shed causes problems such as parallel running and loops at the selvedges. It gives dimensions for building the stand from boards, wire and a tube, and describes threading and set-up for tubes, bobbins and cones. It also covers twist and rewinding onto shuttle bobbins for neat edges.
