A late Victorian technical textbook by Aldred F. Barker of Bradford Technical College on how to analyse woven cloth and work out the particulars needed to reproduce it. It covers yarn construction, counts, twist and cost calculations, weave analysis, drafting, figured fabrics and jacquard work, gauze and leno, pile fabrics and Brussels carpets, setts, and cloth weights in the loom and after finishing. Appendices cover the cost of cloths, fabrics that are difficult to analyse (Meltons and fine-sett silks), and design paper selection. It includes many weave designs and drafts, diagrams, and worked arithmetic examples.
