Page 1 of 1, a sample page, at reduced quality. Open the document to read it in full.
A first-person article by a New Hampshire handweaver on designing and weaving custom suiting fabrics for men. She discusses yarn sources (American and imported tweeds, worsteds), tailoring each length to the customer's build, coloring, occupation and location, and gives examples from her brothers and a dog breeder's jacket. It closes with practical notes on cloth width, yardage for jackets and suits, twill versus tabby, and production rates and pricing.
