A short essay from the Master Weaver bulletin on the development and design of striped fabrics. It traces how stripes in weft and warp evolved in primitive weaving, from two alternating colours to dominant, subdominant and accent stripes, illustrated with four sample panels. It closes with six suggestions for designing stripes, including blending colour ratios, unsymmetrical stripes and changing the rhythm, and notes suitable weaves such as tabby and broken twills.
