Introductory article by Elmer Wallace Hickman, the first in a planned series, urging American weavers to learn Scandinavian art weaving techniques. He recounts how he found Norwegian and Swedish teachers, comments on the Swedish Hemslöjd (home craft) movement, and catalogs about twelve principal techniques, including Äklae/Röllakan, Dukegång, Krabba, Flossa, Rya, Upphämpta, Flamskvävnad and Finnweave. Illustrated with photographs of wall-hangings and rugs woven by the author and his teachers, and ending with a list of Scandinavian reference books.
