Florence B. Fowle describes quick, efficient methods for warping a hand loom. She covers drawing the warp through the reed first, transferring the single thread cross with dowels, securing the warp with a tassel head at the foot beam to keep even tension, and beaming with a stick and papers. She also explains how to tie a new warp to an old one with a reef knot, using step-by-step hand diagrams (Figures 1-8). Illustrated with photographs and line drawings.
