Article by Elmer Wallace Hickman introducing Scandinavian Spetsvav, which he calls "Lacey-weave", a technique he describes as a vertical counterpart of overshot. Heavier tabby shots pack down the pattern weft to form a pattern of depressions. It covers the weave's Scandinavian names, suggested yarns for table covers, evening bags, knitting bags and pillow tops, and treadling and set-up notes for five drafts. A page of seven drafts with a shared tie-up and a list of Scandinavian weaving books are included.
