Practical Weaving Suggestions, Vol. 2-70 (1970): Let the Honeysuckle Blossom or You May Not Need to Change that Threading
Periodical · 4 pages · weaving drafts
A four-page leaflet from Lily Mills' Practical Weaving Suggestions in which Eunice Gifford Kaiser shows how the small Honeysuckle overshot threading can yield many designs just by changing the treadling. It explains enlarging a draft by substituting block numbers for harness numbers, then lists eight ways to vary treadling, with sample swatches A through E and their yarns and sett. It also describes applying a Bronson lace treadling to overshot threadings and a huck-like tie-up on four harnesses, with suggested uses such as curtains, bedspreads and towels.
