Publisher Description:
Volume II of WORSTED PREPARING AND SPINNING. (WOOL COMBING.) Originally published in 1923. The object of this handbook is to describe the different combs, to explain the chief principles, functions and points of defference together with the specific use of each particular machine. This treatise is thorough in its detail, adapted to the requirements of modern practise and helpful to the reader and student who seek for a consecutive knowledge of principles, theory and general practise. The author has endeavoured to make the work suggestive and generate thought. Many of the earliest books on weaving, textiles and needlework, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
