A short 1942 article in Weaver describing two handwoven shoulder bags for carrying reading material, woven in crackle weave with carpet warp. The weft strips are cut from the tops of discarded hosiery, which are stretched into tubular cords and re-dyed red and blue. The article gives the construction method, treadling sequences for both bags, threading notes for Structo Spools on a 15-inch reed, and a draft with tie-up.
