- Terms & Definitions
Textile people really do speak their own
language. And besides the terms used in spinning, we also
need to understand the terms fiber producers use. And
then the dyers and weavers definitely have their own
language.
If you think of terms that should be added (or
definitions changed), please send me a note through Rosemary Brock.
