The book consists of 12 chapters which seem to alternate between explanations about weave structures and chapters that are all drafts. The first chapter gives explanations about common language when dealing with weaving drafts and how to read them. The chapter on understanding crackle is particularly enlightening. I also like chapter 3 which consists of only drafts that can be woven on a straight draw (threading from shaft one through eight).

One other aspect of this book that is similar to the Strickler book is that once you have selected a threading, you have the option of weaving multiple designs by altering your tie up and/or your treadling. Everything is right there on the same page for your decisions.
