Portfolio insert for the June 1953 Shuttle-Craft Bulletin, consisting of a cover page and mounted woven shadow weave samples. A typed label gives details for two Nylkara samples: an upper sample at 15 ends per inch, washed and ironed, and a lower sample at 20 ends per inch, unfinished. Both are woven as-drawn-in in black and white. The draft numbers are cited but the drafts are not shown.

A one-page swatch page from Minnesota Weaver explaining shadow weave, a two-color extension of the log cabin system credited to Mary Atwater. It gives the warp, weft, reed and sley for the sample, plus threading rules for 4, 6 and 8 harnesses, tie-up, and treadling options. Three photographs show the sample fabrics, and the page includes drafts.

A web document by Ralph Griswold that uses the Painter weaving language to analyze a shadow weave threading. It breaks the threading into anchors for domain runs joined by palindromes, then represents this structure with pattern forms and sequence notation. It defines coupled, anchor and palindrome transformations, tries all 5,040 anchor-sequence permutations, and shows example weave images. It concludes that the design is aesthetically robust and that further variations will be explored in a later report.

Describes the little-documented "advanced weaving language" hidden in MetaCreation's Painter 5, which lets users write expressions to generate threading, treadling, and warp and weft color sequences for an eight-shaft, eight-treadle loom.
