April 1985 issue of Warp and Weft, the monthly newsletter of Robin & Russ Handweavers of McMinnville, Oregon. Editor Russell Groff reports on a buying trip to England (tartan weaving and bobbin lace books, silk and tussah yarns, fly shuttles). The issue includes a 4-shaft draft with full details for a Swiss linen and ramie fabric in blues (with cost figures and a placemat plan), plus instructions for a twill rug in berber wool on 8/4 linen warp. It also announces Jack Womersley's July 1985 workshops and carries classified ads and yarn and book advertisements.
