Issue No. 45 (May-June 1959) of Master Weaver, a bi-monthly bulletin published by Z-HANDICRAFTS of Fulford, Quebec. It includes an installment on the technology of handweaving, tracing the development of loom equipment from mats and basketry to the foot-power loom. A technical article on turned twills (dimity, diaper, dornick, damask) covers block drafting and tie-ups with drafts. Other items are a piece on unsymmetrical huckaback lace with a 12 x 12 huck lace place mat project, and a Shortcuts article on templets (stretchers) that covers when to use them and how hinged and sliding types work. The last pages carry advertisements for a weaving book catalog and weaving lessons.
