  • WOOL TEXTILE TERMS Handout for the WRSW Wool Panel Discussion
    WOOL TEXTILE TERMS Handout for the WRSW Wool Panel Discussion Over the years, the wool industry has attempted to standardize wool textile terminology. The following is list of such terms listed in “Twills, Tweeds and All-Wool Fabrics” by Harriet C. Douglas. Public Domain on arizona.edu. Broken Twill – are twills in which one or more shafts are omitted in the threading, but the weaving is regular. Dornik is an example. Cheviot Tweeds – originally from the Cheviot Hills of Scotland. Made from the rough, coarse wool of the Cheviot wool in plain weave or in 2/2 twill, with warp and weft of the same color. Often pieced dyed rather than skein dyed. Combined Twills – are Fancy twills woven in small patterns with broken diagonals and irregular warp and weft skips. Corkscrew Twills – are warp and weft rib twills produced on an uneven number of shafts, by weaving semi-opposites. One of the few twills which is not a balanced weave. Curved Twills – are Fancy twills in which the twill lines have a waved or curved nature. District Checks – is the general name applied to the Scotch Tweed checks developed during the rein of Queen Victoria for hunting and sport wear. They are characterized by a certain boldness of small figures, but “protective coloration”. They include such checks as the Glenns, The Glen Urquharts and the Shepherd check, woven on two, three or four colors. Donegal Tweed – has two types. One is a herringbone weave on a white warp with a dark weft; the other, a plain weave fabric woven with a weft which has colored nubs.

    Volume 5, Issue 3 THE POLKA DOT PINCUSHION September - December, 2010 Dear friends, September, 2010 Inside this issue: We certainly have had a long, hot summer. It seems that each day brought either record temps or record humidity. I never had the chance to say, “Well, at least it‟s a dry heat.” That didn‟t happen this News and Views 1 year. Is it just my imagination or did we go directly from April to August without stopping in May, June and Class Listings 2 July? I hope we don‟t go directly to December without stopping at the months in between. They are my Calendar 3 favorites. I love the “start over” feeling in September when all the yellow busses are on the road and I can Calendar 4 hear the marching band practicing at the high school. October always reminds me of the gnarled apple tree in my parents‟ backyard that was just right for climbing. When I got home from school, I would take a book, Class Listings 5 climb the tree, pick an apple and sit. The anticipation of celebrations that begin in November are always Special Notes 6 painted in jewel-toned colors. And of course, December: frantic, fun, sometimes dysfunctional, yet always Special Events 7 memorable. Well, September is here and I love the changes that it will bring. What does this have to do with The Polka Dot Pincushion, you ask? Even if you didn‟t ask, I‟ll tell you. We have lots of changes in At The Polka Dot store.
