Spinning and Weaving
註釋The spinning of yarn and the weaving of textiles have been key activities in rural Scotland for hundreds of years. This book relates the story of spinning and weaving in Scotland, beginning with the earliest forms of textile production. The author discusses distinctively Scottish textiles, such as the Paisley shawl and the jute industry in Dundee; and covers the development of mechanization from the first water-powered machines to full-scale industrial production.
