Weaving Designs by Bertha Gray Hayes: Miniature Overshot Patterns

by Norma Smayda, Gretchen White, Jody Brown, and Katharine Schelleng

This volume is rooted in the weaving explorations of Bertha Gray Hayes, an early 20th century weaver from Providence, Rhode Island. Collected here are her unique miniature 4-shaft overshot patterns with computer-generated drafts. You’ll learn much about the history of American hand weaving, as well as the remarkable work of a single weaver, with her plentiful legacy of overshot patterns.
