Issue No. 55 (January-February 1961) of Master Weaver, a bi-monthly bulletin for handweavers issued by Z-Handicrafts, Fulford, Quebec. It opens with an article on how to teach handweaving, including a 20-lesson theory and 80-hour practice schedule from yarns and tabby through twills, overshot, crackle and summer-and-winter. The main technical article, "Huck & Lace Combined," explains drafting huckaback and huck-lace in the Scandinavian style, first on four shafts and then on multiple shafts, with tie-up methods and treadling sequences. A short "Quizz in Overshot" asks how many symmetrical four-block overshot variations exist and gives drafts for two extra ones.
