Analysis of Woven Fabrics
Analysis of Woven Fabrics
Book · 341 pages · weaving drafts
A 1914 technical treatise on analysing woven cloth, written by two Yorkshire textile teachers. It covers raw fibres and yarn qualities, yarn count and cloth weight calculations, setts, weave analysis, drafts and pegging plans, and the effects of dyeing and finishing on wool, union and cotton cloths. It explains how to work back from a small finished sample to loom particulars, with worked examples (worsted costume cloth, mohair lustre, double cloth, corduroy, colour-and-weave cloths), quick methods, fibre analysis, costing and wage lists. It ends with a glossary of fabric terms, an appendix of weaving price lists and a publisher's catalogue.
