Part one of a two-part article by Maria Steinhoff arguing for the practical and economic value of hand-weaving fashion fabrics. She compares the cost of handwoven yardage with expensive designer and imported cloth, the speed of weaving versus knitting, and the mixing of different fibers. She then describes five illustrated sample fabrics for suits, dresses and coats, naming the Bernat yarns used for warp and filler and the colors. No threading drafts are given.
