A short article from The Weaver describing four casual table mats designed by Dorothy S. Roberts, each about 10 inches wide and 12 to 27 inches long. All are woven on plain-weave threadings. Mat I has an inlaid geometric design in linen and Vittora Strand, with a cartoon for the colour placement. Mats II to IV are striped, using wool and linen wefts, with a weft-faced technique said to resemble Navaho rug texture. The article gives yarns, colours, sizes, reed and treadling details, and the stripe sequence for Mat IV.
