Article by Nellie Sargent Johnson, a weaving instructor at Wayne University, defining laid-in technique as a form of brocade weaving. The pattern weft lies in the same shed as a plain weave ground shot. She distinguishes it from tapestry and from the loosely used term "finger-weaving." It gives working instructions for a yellow and brown envelope purse woven on an 8-inch Structo loom with a twill threading, including warp, weft, dimensions and making up. It also describes two linen runner borders designed by students, with charts of the border designs.
