An article from Master Weaver (No. 43, January 1959) on weaving small, widely spaced pattern figures on a plain background using overshot. It explains threading blocks as ground and pattern, treadlings, and ways to weave the ground between figures. It includes two practical projects (cotton place mats and linen place mats) with warp, weft, sett and treadling details, and a variant using six-block overshot with binder treadles. Drafts and figures accompany the text, and the first page also carries the end of a preceding warping instalment.
