Chenille
Page 1 of 1, a sample page, at reduced quality. Open the document to read it in full.
A single page from Master Weaver No. 19 (January 1955). It concludes a discussion of weaving chenille rugs, explaining how colour changes in the first weaving of the chenille weft produce mottled, striped or vertical-stripe effects in the finished rug. It then begins a 'From the Classics' excerpt from C.G. Gilroy (1844) crediting Alexander Buchanan of Paisley with inventing chenille fabric around 1820.
