Omschrijving

Hosiery Manufacture is a comprehensive and authoritative guide that delves into the intricate processes and technicalities of producing hosiery, offering an in-depth exploration of the industry as it stood in the early 20th century. The book meticulously covers every aspect of hosiery production, from the selection and preparation of raw materials such as cotton, wool, silk, and artificial fibers, to the detailed workings of machinery used in knitting, seaming, and finishing hosiery products. It provides clear explanations of the various types of knitting machines, including flat and circular machines, and discusses the principles behind their operation, maintenance, and adjustment. The text is richly illustrated with diagrams and photographs, making complex concepts accessible to both novices and experienced professionals. It addresses the design and patterning of hosiery, the dyeing and finishing processes, and the quality control measures necessary to produce durable and attractive products. Special attention is given to the evolution of hosiery styles, the development of new fibers and blends, and the impact of technological advancements on manufacturing efficiency and product variety. In addition to the technical content, Hosiery Manufacture offers valuable insights into the organization and management of hosiery factories, labor considerations, and the economic factors influencing the trade. The book serves as both a practical manual for those directly involved in hosiery production and a historical document reflecting the state of the industry during a period of significant innovation and growth. Whether used as a reference for industry professionals, a textbook for students of textile engineering, or a resource for historians of technology and fashion, Hosiery Manufacture remains an essential work for understanding the complexities and craftsmanship behind one of the most ubiquitous garments in modern wardrobes.
