Issue of a Canadian handweaving bulletin published by Nilus Leclerc Inc. It contains a technical article on choosing warp sett, with a formula and a chart of minimum sett for cotton, linen and wool. A second article shows weaves from one 10x10 huckaback threading: huckaback, turned huckaback, M's-and-O's, turned M's-and-O's, double waffle and huckaback lace. The issue also has Drafting lesson 5 on borders and selvedges, a worked threading example, a satinet (1:3 broken twill) draft sheet, Questions and Answers, an index of volume 1, and encyclopedia entries from Circular weave to Coppin. Advertisements for looms, yarn suppliers and the Nilus loom fill the rest.
