Article by Osma Couch Gallinger describing the National Conference of American Handweavers held at Waldenwoods, Hartland, Michigan, run by Cromaine Crafts and supervised by Mary M. Atwater. It covers the conference's aims for shop, school and home weavers, and highlights teaching "weaving as drawn in" and thread analysis. Most of the article is a chart by Atwater and Gallinger giving warp yarns, yards per pound, sley settings, tabby and pattern wefts, and recommended threadings for dress fabrics, accessories, bed coverings, upholstery, drapery, rugs and table linens.
