The Modern Rug
Page 1 of 1, a sample page, at reduced quality. Open the document to read it in full.
A short article from Weaver giving instructions for a 21 by 38 inch scatter rug woven in chenille on a four-harness loom threaded for plain weave. It covers the sett (one thread per dent in a 15-dent reed), materials and colors, tapestry-weave technique with interlocking at color joins, and use of a full-size cartoon under the warp. It also gives advice on packing the weft and finishing the hem. A photograph of the rug and a drawing of the cartoon with a color key accompany the text.
