An article from The Weaver (April 1937) on a single-harness overshot-type weave, presented as a follow-up to an earlier article on weaving 'on opposites' with a rosepath threading. Gallup explains the loom requirements (a four-harness table loom is preferred), the choice of warp and weft, and the 4-3-2-1 treadling used throughout. She gives color-by-color pick instructions for borders (Diagrams B, B-1, B-1A, B-2) and a large Diagram C of further designs. The last page has charted tapestry-wool patterns (No. 3 peasant, No. 4 French tapestry) with color numbers, and notes on a 'Viking' weaving of 23 colors by Gene Johnson.
