A short bilingual glossary of weaving terms, appended to a 1903 Japanese weaving textbook, pairing Japanese terms with English equivalents. Entries cover weave structures (twills, satin, rib, gauze, pile, double cloth), loom types and parts (reed, shuttle, heddle, treadle, dobby), and draft terminology such as cording plan, peg plan, and design. The author's preface says the terms come from his own research rather than translation of Western books, and that English equivalents are given only where a counterpart exists.
