Page 1 of 1, a sample page, at reduced quality. Open the document to read it in full.
A short 1894 magazine article, reprinted from The Brooklyn Eagle, describing how silk lace is made on machines. It follows the silk from imported raw skeins through throwing, boiling, spooling, warping and beaming, then the threading of the machine, Jacquard card punching, inspection, dyeing and finishing. It closes with a note that silk gloves are made in much the same way, but on plain cloth.
