Part II of a two-part introduction to textile conservation for amateur weavers and collectors, covering storage and display. It groups environmental stresses (heat, humidity, dust, light, handling, contact with containers, insects and fungi) and gives practical precautions such as recommended temperature and humidity, avoiding UV light, rolling or padding folds, and moth control. It describes a simple method for mounting small specimens in a frame with two diagrams, and ends with a bibliography and a list of conservation suppliers.
