A short article by Doris McMullen proposing woven baby crib coverlets as a quick, inexpensive item for weavers to make and sell. She recommends Bernat yarns (Umbrian for warp, Glendown, Weaving Special and Fabri for weft), describes a coverlet with a picked-up peach border and one with partial pattern pick-up in deep blue, and suggests a four-block diamond border used with the Rebecca Garrison coverlet draft. She also explains weaving the child's name into the hem using the French embroidery method. Two photographs illustrate the coverlets; no drafts are printed.
