The loom, and weaving, are dear to the hearts of most persons who are interested in past cultures, for is not the loom truly the foundation of one of our basic arts and crafts--the making of clothing. The author Mrs Gallinger has had long experience in the crafts field and is a devoted weaver, an interest that she developed while a student at Wellesly College. After college she identified herself with decorators in the New York City area and became assistant editor of the National Decorative Trade Service. She has helped hundreds of women learn the art of weaving through classes and the organization of various class groups. Through this instruction many have been enabled to add to the family income through their work; others have used the knowledge purely for home decoration and recreational benefits. The book consists of two parts. Part I covers "Simple or Plain Weaving." In this the story of thread occupies the foremost chapter. Many step by step plans are given so that the student can soon start making such simple things as a book-mark, table mats, simple rugs, etc. Part II concerns itself with pattern weaving, and by following the simple instructions, the student can soon be adding such designs as the honeysuckle flower, fancy borders, geometric designs, all in a variety of colors. The edition is beautifully illustrated so that one's interest in the subject increases with each page. Whether a beginner or experienced weaver this book has invaluable material for the pursuit of this phase of art. The International Textbook Company, Scranton, Pa. Price $6.50 Hobbies Magazine, July 1951
