A 1936 article from The Weaver in which Eleanor Ropes describes handwoven linen and cotton towels, with notes on colors, threads, setting, hems, fringes and border treatments. The towels are woven from two threadings, Heartz's "Pine Cone" and Mrs. Atwater's "Drifting Shadows", and are shown in photographs. She also describes two old Turkish towels she owns. The last page gives both drafts and treadling instructions for the borders.
