Drafts are presented on a sheet of 18cm by 11cm notebook paper. The title "Two-Color Threadings (Atwater bulletin February 1947)" is typewritten. Five drafts, hand-drawn on graph paper, are glued to the sheet. Treadling order is typed below each draft. Three swatches, woven by Hilma Berglund using cotton carpet warp for both warp and weft, show color and weave variations. Swatch A (labeled using the blank from the side of a sheet of stamps) follows the draft. Swatch B has two variations;, the draft B treadling and the draft D treadling. Swatch C has three sections: light weft, dark weft, and light and dark weft alternating. The first 2 sections have treadling variations.
