A one-page question-and-answer column by Mary M. Atwater on whether handweaving can be made profitable. She advises learning to weave well, settling on a standardized product, and finding or building a market through shops, a shop of one's own, or agents. She rates upholstery and drapery fabrics, tweeds and dress fabrics, blankets, and linens as the better lines, and ordinary rugs, coverlets, and bags as the least profitable. She also mentions teaching, occupational therapy, and writing as other ways to earn from weaving, and gives short advice on choosing a teacher, loom, and yarns.
