Mary Atwater's article on finishing the edges of woven pieces, mostly with fringes. It covers deciding whether to fringe, finishing in the loom with Spanish open-work weaving, and weaving separate applied fringes on an inkle or harness loom. It also describes knotted macramé (Solomon knot) fringes, seizing, braided fringes and tops, a braided rug-fringe tie from the Philippines, and three Maori twined finishes. Diagrams and five photographs illustrate the methods.
