TRANSCRIBER'S NOTE

Italic text is denoted by _underscores_.

Bold text is denoted by =equal signs=.

Large-size letters used to describe shapes or trade marks are denoted by @at-signs@.

The original book had a set of blank ledger pages to allow the reader to catalog his collection of fabric samples, preceded by a repeated list of the 17 main fabric groups found on pages 75-78. These pages numbered 112-170 have been omitted from the etext. The Index begins at the following page 171.

Obvious typographical errors and punctuation errors have been corrected after careful comparison with other occurrences within the text and consultation of external sources.

Except for those changes noted below, all misspellings in the text, and inconsistent or archaic usage, have been retained. For example, all-silk, all silk; dyestuff, dye-stuff; vicuna, vicuña.

Pg 178, 'Scheriner Finish' replaced by 'Schreiner Finish'.
