Allt för Fosterlandet [All for the Native Land]
Book · 47 pages · Swedish · weaving drafts
A Swedish-language manual on drawloom and damask-type pattern weaving, built around Lovisa Nylander's patented loom. It describes the loom and its parts (pattern shafts, draw board, treadles, beater with jerk mechanism), yarn, sizing and reeds, warping, threading, tie-ups and the draw sequence for figures. A large part is plates of damask and drawloom patterns with borders, rosettes and a Swedish coat of arms, plus drafts for twill, satin and double weave. Later sections cover shawls, felts, quilting, double cloth and rules for beginners.
