Seller's Description:
New/old stock. The classic work for textural weaving. Discussion of yarns, setts and sleys, then gives 44 designs with drafts. "One of the aims of surface interest is that of making the most of the beauty of simpler interlacements such as tabby, basket weaves and twills. The high-character surface-threads are combined to give the impression of bulk through permitting them to stand out independently on the surface in such a way that they eye sees only the interlacement of surface warp and weft, and receives the impression of a textile so loosely woven that it could not hold together in a practical manner."
