A two-page newsletter article explaining how to use a pickup stick (shed stick) on a rigid heddle loom to create extra sheds. It gives step-by-step instructions for picking in front of the heddle and behind the heddle, including the "stick" and "up and stick" sheds. It also covers surface texture, designing pickup patterns on graph paper, uses such as borders and sampling, and a short reference list of books.
