About This Item
London: Mills & Boon, 1978. Third Edition. Paperback. Fair. A revised and updated edition of a book that has amply proved its usefulness in schools and colleges. Written to assist those who wish to know about textiles without going into the technology of the subject in great detail. Covers every known textile type at time of printing (both natural and man-made), with details of source and manufacture; spinning methods; dyes & dyeing; weaving; finishing; printing; and care of fabrics and garments. A useful gem of a book for textile students or anyone interested in garment manufacture. Contains 223 pages, 17 x 14cm, with 15 b&w plates and 50 diagrams. Ex-library, front endpapers removed, some library markings. Illustrated card covers with shelf-wear to edges and spine, otherwise in fair condition.
