'Weaving Patterns of Yesterday and Today' explores the history of weaving and weaving patterns, first looking at its origins before walking the reader trough the various methods used to produce different patterns. With detailed explanations and simple, step-by-step instructions, this profusely-illustrated guide is highly recommended for those with an interest in weaving and its developments throughout the ages. Contents include: 'The Harness', 'Cotton And Wool Warps', 'Silk Warp', 'The Selvedge', 'The Calculation Of Threads Required For The Warp Of Patterned Materials', 'The Warp Book', 'Specimen Entry', 'The Pedals And What They Do', 'How To Read A Drafting Pattern', etc. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new introduction on textiles and weaving.
