An instructional article on flat (slit) tapestry weaving, the second of two on tapestry in The Weaver, following one on knot tapestry. It explains the distinguishing features of Gothic, Gobelin, Aubusson, adapted French, Kelim and Norwegian picture weaving. It covers loom and warp setup with tire cord, weaving with flutes, grattoir and comb, building a design, sewing the slits, and shading with hatching exercises (pyramid samplers). Illustrated with photographs of tapestry details and tool diagrams.

An instructional article by Emily N. Goodwin introducing hand tapestry weaving on a simple frame, concentrating on the knotted "Swedish" weave. It covers materials, warping a frame with cotton twine, making knots in both directions, transferring a design onto the warp with waterproof ink, building color masses, and interlocking wefts to avoid slits. It also covers stretching and finishing, and briefly mentions the Summak knot weave; flat tapestry methods are promised for a later article.
