Encyclopedia article on weaving (tkalcovství) from the Czech encyclopedia Ottův slovník naučný. It surveys the history of weaving from antiquity to industrial production, then describes warp preparation: hand warping with a warping frame, bobbin rack and warping board, and English and Saxon warping machines. It also covers sizing and gluing machines and drawing the warp into the heddles and reed with hooks. It closes with statistics on the cotton, wool, linen, jute and silk weaving industries in Europe, Austria and Bohemia, and a short bibliography.
