A collection of short dictionary entries on fiber and fiber-processing terms, drawn from Knight's American Mechanical Dictionary (1876). Entries cover materials such as abaka, flock, mineral cotton, pine-wool, silk-cotton, and straw, along with machines and terms like the fiber-gun, fleece-folder, flock-opener, porcupine heckle, slub, sliver, and top. The definitions are brief, mostly describing mechanical processing of wool, flax, and cotton.
