Sinossi
Excerpt from Design in Textile Fabrics
The rapid disappearance of the old apprentice system, the growth of large establishments, and the consequent subdivision of labour, accompanied by the ever-increasing demand for fabrics of a more artistic character to be applied to useful purposes, make it imperative upon the would-be designer or manufacturer to understand more fully than he has done in the_ past the principles upon which fabrics should be constructed, so as to fulfil all the necessary conditions. He must work on sound principles and leave nothing to chance.
The reader must not expect to go through this work in a hurried manner, or to thoroughly grasp all the details of the subject without further effort. Within the compass of this volume it is, of course, impossible to enter into all the particulars which would make the student at once perfectly conversant with the whole; but an effort has been made to-lay down the leading principles clearly and completely, and to guide the student generally, rather than to enter too closely into minor details, which can onlv be sufficiently mastered by actual practice in the mill or workshop.

The author emphasizes the significance of considering the intended use and purpose of fabrics when designing them, advocating for a holistic approach that balances aesthetics with utility. The book begins by examining the fundamental elements of textiles, such as threads, weaves, and textures. It then delves into various methods of fabric construction, including plain, twill, satin, double, gauze, and pile fabrics. Each technique is analyzed in terms of its advantages, disadvantages, and suitability for different applications. The author explores the relationship between the structure of a fabric and its properties, such as strength, warmth, and drape. Additionally, the book discusses the impact of yarn characteristics, including fiber type, twist, and thickness, on the overall quality and appearance of fabrics. Throughout the book, the author provides numerous examples and illustrations to clarify concepts and demonstrate the practical application of design principles. The insights gained from this book will empower designers, manufacturers, and consumers alike to make informed decisions about the selection and creation of textile fabrics that meet specific requirements and aesthetic preferences.
