Handloom Weaving Technology. by Allen A. Fannin

An analytical read; excellent for those looking for efficiency in their weaving, or anyone approaching the science of this art. Discusses yarns, looms, equipment and tools, drafts and layouts, preparatory processes, weaving, finishing (wet and dry finishing), and design mechanics. Love the photo illustrations throughout. Useful.
