A 1939 article from The Weaver in which Florence B. Fowle draws on her weaving notebooks to advise beginners. She explains the cycle of loom motions (throwing the shuttle, closing the shed, beating, changing the shed, returning the beater) and how each affects selvages and cloth surface. She then works through a yarn-calculation example for a linen luncheon set, covering warp length, shrinkage allowance, warp yardage and filler estimation. A reference table of yarns lists suggested uses, ends per inch and yards per pound.

Florence B. Fowle describes quick, efficient methods for warping a hand loom. She covers drawing the warp through the reed first, transferring the single thread cross with dowels, securing the warp with a tassel head at the foot beam to keep even tension, and beaming with a stick and papers. She also explains how to tie a new warp to an old one with a reef knot, using step-by-step hand diagrams (Figures 1-8). Illustrated with photographs and line drawings.

A 1938 Weaver article by Florence Cathcart Fowle on designing linen doilies (place mats) on a small loom so that the cut ends match the selvages. It describes three doilies: two woven on a Betsy Ross M's and O's threading with floss cords and turned hems, and a third with a Swedish-style over-laid pattern in the warp. Threading plans, warp plans, tie-ups, treadling directions, a tape-measure method for uniform size, and photographs of the finished pieces are included.
