A Swatch Page column from the Minnesota Weaver explaining the profile draft, a shorthand for showing block designs in which a key threading unit is substituted for each block. It works through substitution for summer and winter, gives a test exercise covering double weave, satin weave and Atwater Bronson lace, and explains the profile draw-down. It then presents three woven samples from one profile: a summer and winter pillow, a double weave crib coverlet or hanging, and a linen satin (damask) table runner, with warp, weft, sett, size and references for each, plus a bibliography.
