An article from The Weaver (1940) on planning a warp before weaving. It gives a short history of English units of measure and explains how to calculate yards per pound for cotton, wool and linen yarns, and how to work out warp quantity, weft quantity and material cost per yard. It then shows how to build a threading plan for a Honeysuckle pattern, balancing pattern repeats and selvage threads symmetrically, with illustrations of selvage direction.

Article by Osma Couch Gallinger describing the National Conference of American Handweavers held at Waldenwoods, Hartland, Michigan, run by Cromaine Crafts and supervised by Mary M. Atwater. It covers the conference's aims for shop, school and home weavers, and highlights teaching "weaving as drawn in" and thread analysis. Most of the article is a chart by Atwater and Gallinger giving warp yarns, yards per pound, sley settings, tabby and pattern wefts, and recommended threadings for dress fabrics, accessories, bed coverings, upholstery, drapery, rugs and table linens.

A Lily Mills Company booklet (Practical Weaving Suggestions, Vol. XXVI) by Osma Couch Gallinger giving instructions for seven small, inexpensive handwoven rugs, each about 2 x 3 ft. It opens with notes on rug materials (carpet warp, rug yarn, rug-weave yarn) and a table of recommended rug techniques. Each rug has a draft, warp and threading plan, weaving plan, materials and cost: Summer and Winter, two M's and O's rugs, a Crackle runner, Herringbone, Orange Peel overshot, and a two- or four-harness Log Cabin rug or bath mat. Also mentions bags made from rug warp ends.

Article by Osma Couch Gallinger that classifies the overshot patterns in Mary Meigs Atwater's Shuttlecraft Book into Series I-VI (Diamond and Cross, Star and Rose, Wheel, Radiating, Patch, Miscellaneous). It explains the basic motifs (Cross, Diamond, Star, Rose, Wheel, Table) and how they combine, using block notation such as 1&2, 2&3, with skeleton diagrams on check paper of sample patterns for each series. The last page has an unrelated fragment on weaving color-block borders with pattern-shot sequences.
