Notes
The draft I am using came from a Color Forecast project in Handwoven Magazine, Fall/Winter 04-05. However, since then I’ve found it in The Weavers Draft Book and Clothier’s Assistant by John Hargrove,published in 1792. It’s draft #11 on page 9 of this document.Hargrove’s book can be downloaded in its entirety from www.handweaving.net. Also, the bumberet threading is also found in Marguerite Porter Davison’s A Handweaver’s Pattern Book (the green book), where it is called John Murphy’s Bird’s Eye No 57 (page 14) and Joseph France’s No. 11 (page 15). Davison provides many additional tie-up and threadings to explore.
