A 1967 reprint of articles from Wool Knowledge, the journal of wool education, published by the British Wool Marketing Board with the International Wool Secretariat. It follows wool through industrial processing: scouring, carding for woollen and worsted yarns, spinning of woollen yarns on the mule, combing (Noble, Lister, Heilmann), worsted drawing and spinning, and power-loom weaving of woollen and worsted fabrics. Shorter pieces cover teasels grown in Somerset for raising cloth nap, colour and wool blending, the Welsh woollen industry, and the hand spinning and weaving cottage industry of India. It is illustrated with photographs, machine diagrams and tables, but has no weaving drafts.
