Excerpt from Foot-Power Loom Weaving
The work is so full of possibilities and the results obtained have such a wonderful effect on the character of the worker that these alone afford ample reasons why weaving should be carried on in both school and community. Double weaving as it was done inthe early days is such a mystery to the home weavers of today that it was thought advisable to add a chapter on this branch of the work in the present edition.

Few lines of occupation furnish more excellent opportunity for color combination and design than does the craft of weaving. Girls taking the various household-arts courses will find weaving a great aid in understanding the structure of a piece of cloth. The work is so full of possibilities and the results obtained have such a wonderful effect on the character of the worker that these alone afford ample reasons why weaving should be carried on in both school and community. The descriptions given are for the amateur weaver who will find them more easily understood than those given in the more technical books on the subject. It is hoped that those interested will find help through the suggestions offered in this manual. EDWARD F. WORST.
