An article from Master Weaver (No. 11, September 1953) on what to do with a multi-harness loom when a weaver has more frames than needed. It lists the weaves possible on two and four frames and those that truly require more, such as satin, turned twills, double weave and compound weaves. It then gives examples for an eight-frame, ten-treadle loom: crackle woven as summer and winter, plain spot, paper spot, swivel, huckaback, overshot and diamond twill, with draft diagrams.
