Instruction paper (Part 2 of a series, section 50) on dressing and preparing warps for woolen and worsted weaving, in the style of International Correspondence Schools textbooks. It describes the combination, two-cylinder and four-cylinder dressers, sizing recipes, dressing frames, spool creels with tension devices, sectional warp reels, leasing, beaming, and the compressing system for warps. Later sections cover forming sections and warps, picking and tying in fancy colored patterns with worked calculations, drawing in, reeding, and twisting in. Illustrated with many line drawings of machinery and one drawing-in draft.
