Textile Terminology

Dawn McCarthy's picture

I am having a pre-senior moment and cannot recall the corect terms for the following:

1) when wool yarns "fur" together prior to weaving (say during beaming or in the warp in general)

2) checking and repairing fabric afer weaving

I have them documented somewhere, it is early in the am and my tea hasn't hit my brain yet!

 

Thanks in advance!

Dawn
