An alphabetical Swedish-to-English glossary of weaving and textile terms compiled by Marie C. Hayes. It covers loom parts, yarns and fibers, dyeing and colors, finishing, weave structures such as huck (dräll), rosepath, twill, honeycomb and damask, and inlay techniques such as rölakan and krabbasnär. It also gives general vocabulary useful for reading Swedish weaving books. Some regional pattern names (Daladräll, Bollnäsdräll, Bohusväv) are explained. The A section appears twice, once with the Swedish diacritics missing and once corrected.
