A short article from The Weaver describing four casual table mats designed by Dorothy S. Roberts, each about 10 inches wide and 12 to 27 inches long. All are woven on plain-weave threadings. Mat I has an inlaid geometric design in linen and Vittora Strand, with a cartoon for the colour placement. Mats II to IV are striped, using wool and linen wefts, with a weft-faced technique said to resemble Navaho rug texture. The article gives yarns, colours, sizes, reed and treadling details, and the stripe sequence for Mat IV.

An article from The Weaver (1940) giving instructions for three linen luncheon sets: a runner, place mats and napkins. Pattern No. 1, "The Modern Pine", uses plain weave with inlay tree motifs and a twill band. The other two are a warp-and-weft plaid and a striped set woven from odds and ends of linen. The article lists yarns, colors, sleying and warp color sequences, and weft stripe sequences, and has photographs of the finished sets. It has no weaving drafts.

A short article from Weaver giving instructions for a 21 by 38 inch scatter rug woven in chenille on a four-harness loom threaded for plain weave. It covers the sett (one thread per dent in a 15-dent reed), materials and colors, tapestry-weave technique with interlocking at color joins, and use of a full-size cartoon under the warp. It also gives advice on packing the weft and finishing the hem. A photograph of the rug and a drawing of the cartoon with a color key accompany the text.

A magazine article from The Woman's World, part of the series 'Some Irish Industries', describing the Rosses district of western Donegal and its hand-knitting trade. The author describes the landscape, poverty, customs and folklore of the islands and coast, then explains how knitting, spinning and hand-loom cloth were encouraged by Lord George Hill at Gweedore and bought by hosiery agents. She also describes her own scheme, run from a London 'stocking room' with Father Bernard at Burton Port, which supplies fine wool and pays local women for socks, gloves and jerseys. It also touches on wages, competing agencies, Donegal embroidery and sprigging, homespun cloth, plant and lichen dyeing, tuck-mill finishing, and the appeal for a pier at Kincaslough.

Roberts describing how she wove a long pile string rug for the bathroom on a two-harness colonial loom, tying knots around two warp threads and cutting the pile over a flat stick. It also shows guest towels woven in Spanish lace weave on a fine linen warp, each with a different border design. Material, sizes and sett details are given for the rug and towels, illustrated with photographic plates.
