Volume VI originally published in 1906. 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. This book is an cyclopedia of textile work containing a wealth of information on cotton, woolen and worsted yarn manufacture, weaving, designing, chemistry and dyeing, finishing, knitting, and allied subjects. It has been compiled from the most practical and comprehensive instruction papers of the American School of Correspondence. It is intented to furnish instruction to those who cannot take a correspondence course.
