To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Yellow Silk No. E.E. Needle No. 8. Use. — To show how a twill is formed by weaving in the warp and woof threads. Cashmeres, as well as other wool goods, and many silks are woven with a twill. The threads are woven in, as in darning, with every other row alike, the alternate rows taking up the threads dropped in the row before. Weave in all the warp threads first ; as this is a double thread canvas put single threads of the silk where the vacant spaces are and alternately skip two and go under t...wo of the woof threads of the canvas. In the woof, skip three threads and go under three threads, al- ternate each line with the one before it and the result will be a twill. Be careful in starting the first thread of the woof, for the stitch which intersects the warp begins in the same hole and makes a right angle with the warp stitch. The stitch around the edge to hold it down is an easy one, all the upright stitches go in first and, on the return, the cross bars at the top and bottom. With care, the stitches on both sides of the canvas can be made alike.
