Drawing Down Card Weaving Drafts
Drawing Down Card Weaving Drafts
Mrs. W.F. McNulty · Weaver, January-February 1941
Article · 1 page · weaving drafts
A one-page article explaining how to draw down card (tablet) weaving drafts on squared paper to preview how a finished band will look. The author works through two examples: a Swedish band in orange, black and white linen, and a Danish draft. She shows the effect of weaving twenty-four turns forward and backward versus four and four. The page includes the drafts, a drawn-down pattern, and photographs of the two woven bands.

Article · 2 pages · weaving drafts
Instructions by Mrs. W. F. McNulty for weaving two Norwegian pickup bands on an inkle loom or any two-shed device. The bands are copies of originals bought in Trondheim and Bergen. Step-by-step pickup sequences are given for each band, with threading drafts and squared-paper designs in the figures. A short second item by Eloise Cobb on page 2 describes making bookmarks and hair bands from a card-weaving pattern of Mrs. Atwater's, with charts.
