Page 1, at reduced quality. Open the document to read every page in full.
A two-page article from Master Weaver explaining how to weave double weaves with two separate warps, a tighter ground warp and a slacker pattern warp, on 8 to 21 shafts. It describes what each shaft count allows: tabby ground with tabby, twill or satin pattern, and two to four pattern blocks. Fig. 1-4 give threading drafts; tie-ups are deferred to a later article. It ends with practical advice on weft tension, shuttle handling, edges, warp tensions and sampling.
