Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Practice in Weaving and Loom-Fixing: A Complete Manual for the Weave-Room Sunless you have one or two unsightly pieces of picking-stick to brace it down, the chances are that you will have to crawl under the loom very often to tighten the box and bark your knuckles. File across the ribs until your straight-edge shows them to be even, care being taken lest you get them slanting from either side. Fitting the pin - In 'putting the box on, take time enough to fit a good pin through both box and frame, and in such a manner as to draw the box down, so that it fits snug on the top of the frame. This is often carelessly done, and the pin, when holding the box up too high, pre vents it from obtaining a bearing on the top of the frame as well as the side. If this is the case, you cannot keep it tight, no matter how hard you tighten up the bolts. Do the job well, taking time enough for it, and you will save yourself much disagreeable duty.

Download or read book The Joy of Handweaving written by Osma Tod and published by Courier Corporation. This book was released on 2012-06-14 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first paperback edition of a manual well known to weavers for its great thoroughness, clarity, and value to beginning and professional weavers alike. The author has drawn upon many years of experience as a teacher and writer in preparing this practical text of basic weaving techniques and projects from the simplest to the extremely complex. Each topic of weaving theory and technique is presented with its practical applications in mind. Within the first thirty pages, readers learn enough to complete their first weaving project, a bookmark, and this leads directly to the weaving of rugs on a loom, the process of weaving on a two-harness loom, threading plain weave from a draft, making a two-harness table loom (readers following the clear diagram and instructions will have no trouble building the loom), preparing the weft, handling of threads, two-harness design methods, the weaving of rag rugs in plain weave, useful articles woven with striped warps and wefts, tapestry techniques, and design weaves. For advanced weavers, the second major section of the book covers a great variety of weaves for the four-harness loom and related information: how to warp and thread a four-harness loom, weaving both plain and pattern weave, the twill family of weaves and herringbone variations, the principles of overshot pattern weaving, the diamond or cross family, the monk's belt pattern and its uses, practical overshot patterns, designing drafts and special techniques, ways of weaving overshot, special four-harness techniques (summer and winter weave, the Bronson weave, the M's and O's weave, the crackle weave, the waffle weave, matta technique, syncopation, double weaving on a four-harness loom). The author then details multi-harness weaves such as multi-harness twill, eight-harness damask design, and several others. Then follow discussions of the uses of color in weaving designs, planning borders, the various draft notations (European and American), weaving with synthetic fibers, thread sizes, counts and yardage, and costs of handwoven fabrics. There is a thread chart of warp settings and suitable wefts. A final chapter gives instructions for making several projects from hand-woven fabrics (a folder for linens, a small ornamental box, jackets and suits, and others). The text is fully illustrated throughout with photographs and labelled diagrams.

We believe that man is a trinity, three in one - head, heart, and hand, one soul made manifest; we believe that this union is vital and indissoluble, since what God hath joined together may not be rent asun der; we believe that this three-fold man, being put to school on earth to grow, may devise and bring to successful issue no scheme of education that is out of har mony with the plan of the Creator.

Download or read book Cotton Loom Fixing Classic Reprint written by John Reynolds and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-08-03 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cotton Loom Fixing The author has been a weaver, loom fixer, second hand and overseer, and is now a designer in a large New England cot ton mill. His experience has been wholly on cotton goods, embracing all kinds of cotton looms from the plain loom to the jacquard, having managed full sections of all types. He is instructor in one of the most practical textile schools in the United States. A book on practical loom fixing should be as free from technicalities as possible. The reader should be led directly to the heart of the subject. The men who are to benefit from such a book are usually working hard in the mills and at the close of the day's work are not in a condition to study or understand a mass of technical details. The object of the book is to make better workmen, get them interested and keep them interested so they will take a greater interest in their work in the mill. In this way the readers are made to feel that there is more to the art of weaving and fixing than merely throwing in a shuttle or using a wrench.
