Synopsis
Excerpt from Advanced Textile Design
The designing and colouring of cloths, which are composed of one series of warp and one series of weft threads, are exhaustively treated in the accompanying book, entitled Textile Design and Colour, Elementary Weaves and Figured Fabrics. This book forms a continuation of the subject, and deals in an equally complete manner with compound and special cloths in which two or more series of threads are employed in one or both directions, or which are produced in special methods. There is no separate section on colour, but the principles upon which colours are applied to the various classes of cloths are described and illustrated.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the intricate world of textile design and construction, exploring the fascinating and often complex methods employed to create various fabrics. The author goes beyond the basic weaves, focusing on compound and special cloths, where two or more series of threads are used in one or both directions, leading to a wide range of textures and effects. The book delves into the intricate art of stitching and tying, which binds extra threads to the face fabric, creating depth, weight, and durability. The text thoughtfully explores the principles of creating reversible designs, where the same weave pattern appears on both sides of the cloth, and discusses the techniques of backing, where additional threads are used to enhance the weight and substance of a fabric. The author also examines the various ways in which extra warp and weft threads are employed to create elaborate figured fabrics, showcasing the ingenious ways in which texture and pattern are intertwined. The book's insightful exploration of these complex weaving techniques provides a comprehensive guide to the structural intricacies of compound and special cloths, offering a valuable resource for textile designers and enthusiasts. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781333850661_0
