A 1938 article by Lou Tate on teaching beginning weavers laid-in tapestry, drawn from her loomroom lessons. She describes student projects, including a mountaineer figure, a child's house tapestry, a place mat and the 'Guapo the fiddler' freehand figures, with warp and weft details for each. It ends with an outline of practical guidance on cartoons, warps, binder and pattern yarns, shrinkage allowance and beating.
