An installment of the "Odd Weaves" series from Master Weaver No. 45 (May 1959) on unsymmetrical huckaback lace. It explains how a classical 10 x 10 or 14 x 14 huck lace can be reduced to an 8 x 8 or 12 x 12 by removing two heddles from the center of each threading repeat and two picks from the treadling. It also discusses texture weaves and borderline drafts and the 4 x 4 case. The article ends with a practical project for cotton place mats in 12 x 12 huck lace, giving warp, sett, threading and treadling. Drafts are shown in all three pages.
