April 1952 issue of Warp & Weft, a monthly handweaving newsletter edited by Gladys Rogers Brophil. It reports on the 1952 Michigan Artist-Craftsmen exhibition at the Detroit Institute of Arts, the Jubilee Guilds of Newfoundland, and Italian handwoven fashions at Marshall Field. The issue's sample is a plain weave ramie, with a three-harness threading draft, tie-up, treadling, sleying and cost details, and a short article on ramie's qualities and uses. Other items include a book review of Where to Sell Handicrafts, a Q&A on shuttles, reader hints (color-coded heddles, easier tying on of the warp), a poem, and a page of advertisements and workshop notices.
