Part 2 of an International Correspondence Schools instruction paper on silk throwing, continuing the section on opening, soaking, and drying raw silk. It covers the choice and testing of soaps and oils for soaking solutions, typical soaking formulas, absorption, tinting for yarn identification, hard water and softening, and oiling of tussah silk. It then describes hydroextractors (self-balancing and gyrating-basket types), rubbing gum spots, winding damp silk, and drying racks and rooms, and ends with 20 examination questions.
