W. Clyde Dunbar describes three handweaving projects using coarse materials. The first is a rag rug in a Mary M. Atwater crackle-weave pattern on black carpet warp, with threading and treadling directions. The second is a fine-yarn experiment in colors on the same warp set at 24 ends per inch. The third is a pair of drapes in a six-harness Summer and Winter variation of "Star of the Sea", woven in dyed homespun yarn, which he also used for wool rugs and bath mats. Drafts, treadling sequences and photographs of the finished pieces are included.
