Excerpt from Textile Design and Colour: Elementary Weaves and Figured Fabrics
AN exhaustive treatise on the designing and colouring of textile fabrics has been found by the writer to be much beyond the scope of a single volume, and this book deals chiefly with cloths that are composed of one series of warp and one series of weft threads. The subject is continued in a second volume - entitled Advanced Textile Design - which treats on compound and special classes of cloths.
