This 4 page typewritten report, written by Hilma Berglund, describes the second and third five years of the Twin City Weavers' Guild. It describes membership growth, programs and exhibits. Four weaving institutes were held, three at the University of Minnesota, and one in a private home. Due to the growth of membership, meetings were held both day and evening, and some meetings were held at member homes. Members were expected to provide proof each year that they were productive weavers. A Board of Directors was added and first met in 1949.
