A 1938 Weaver article by Ruth Ketterer Harris explaining how to weave afghans with a texture resembling dukagang, using an overshot-type threading on four harnesses with a tie-down thread after each overshot unit. It covers the threading principles, pattern combinations, treadling with three treadles at once, and the plain-weave tabby system. It also describes a 40 by 72 inch afghan in tan wool with brown, rust and green pattern wefts, with threading drafts, treadling and layout diagrams.

An article showing how one hollow block, three-block design from an old weaver's sketchbook can be threaded in several textures: colonial overshot, crackle weave, a dukagang-type (spot Bronson) texture, and summer and winter. It gives profile drafts, threadings, treadlings and drawdowns with thread counts, sett (No. 10 perle cotton at 18-20 ends per inch) and finished widths for table runners and similar pieces. It also compares how each texture changes the look of the design and suggests weft rep, warp surface and Bronson as further options.

An article on weaving the M's and O's threading, a two-block structure used for colonial linens. It gives the threading for a unit of eight or four threads per block, plus warp and weft details (Bernat perle cotton, 22 ends per inch, 328 warp threads). It includes full treadling sequences for a mat and treadling variations: plain-weave-like, single treadles for a twill effect, and a continuous horizontal stripe. It also shows pillow top and bag designs and summarizes the treadling combinations that can be woven on one threading.
