Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Woollen and Worsted Woven Fabric Design explains and provides answers to many of the technical and practical problems encountered in the development and design of woollen and worsted woven fabrics. Today it is as essential as ever to design, develop and produce saleable and commercially sound woven fabrics within considerable financial restraints. However, in the teaching of woven fabric design, emphasis appears to have shifted away from the practicalities of cloth construction and design development. The formulae and calculations used in the weaving industry are clearly set out in the text, with numerous worked examples.
