An article from the Shuttle-Craft Bulletin, 1957, in two parts. Natalie White describes a short kimono-sleeved car coat woven from leftover tweed warp on an eight-harness straight twill, with pattern numbers, a cutting layout and warp and weft specifications for a single jacket length. Harriet Tidball then adds a commentary on rescuing failed or "bargain" tweed yarn. She describes a soft Glen Plaid fabric woven as a 3-1 twill, re-sleyed to 30 ends per inch, and suggests using it for a car robe or afghan.
