A single-page threading draft titled 'Blooming Flower', presented as a grid of shaft numbers 1 to 4 in 24 rows of 10 columns. It gives the threading sequence for a four-shaft pattern. No tie-up, treadling, or instructions appear in the text.

Two handwritten sheets of weaving drafts on graph paper. The first page shows several threading and treadling sequences with pencil annotations and a drawdown grid; the second shows several small square-grid drawdowns with handwritten labels beneath each. The handwriting could not be read from the text, so the specific structures are not identified.

A pattern book of thumbnail drawdowns of classical handweaving patterns, compiled by Ralph Griswold in 2005 from drafts that Kris Bruland posted as WIF files on Handweaving.net. The patterns are organized by size, width (shafts) first, from 2 x 3 up to 30 x 30. Each thumbnail is labeled with a five-digit number that matches a WIF file, such as 04571 for 04571.wif, so readers can browse for a pattern and download its draft. The introduction explains the organization and says the material may be used for individual projects but not republished.
