  • 8 Hair Cloth

    A heavy twilled cloth containing wool waste and some calf hair. A nap is raised by gigging. Used for carriage rugs. ———————— This fabric is woven from very strong three-fold cotton warp and horsehair weft. Other material, such as linen, has been used for the warp. Usually made with about 44 ends per inch, and 80 to 100 picks per inch. The weave is usually the 5-end satin. Horse hair is not dyed, and the hair used is generally black, and is cut from both the tails and manes. The lengths vary from 30-in. to 46-in., and a single hair forms one pick. A special loom is used, fitted with mechanism for picking up the hairs and drawing them one by one into the shed. The shuttle for doing this is equipped with a pair of nippers. There is a rough fringe of hair at each selvedge. The cloth is very stiff or wiry and is used for coat linings. Formerly the cloth was also used for upholstering chairs and couches, and some is used today for this purpose (see Cilicium).

  • 10 Cerise Cloth

    A dress fabric made on check looms using a worsted warp, white or dyed and 2, 3 or 4 wefts in various colours.

The weft forming the stripe is wool and the ground weft worsted. One quality is made 72-in. (loom), 46-ends 30's white worsted per inch, 43 picks 30's white worsted for ground, and 43 picks of 6's run in red per inch. Woven pick and pick, as design, on 12 shafts. The weight is 111/2-oz. per yard. The cloth is felted and nap finished, and the result is clear-cut stripes on the face and back. In the design illustrated dots show red wool picks forming stripe, and full squares the ground picks

    SUBJECT AREA: Textiles
    [br]
    fl. c. 1815 England
    [br]
    English developer of a machine for shearing woollen cloth with rotary cutters.
    [br]
    To give a smooth surface to cloth such as the old English broadcloth, the nap was raised and then sheared off. Hand-operated shears of enormous size were used to cut the fibres that stuck up when the cloth was laid over a curved table top. Great skill was required to achieve a smooth finish. Various attempts, such as that in 1784 by James Harmer, a clergyman of Sheffield, were made to mechanize the process by placing several pairs of shears in a frame and operating them by cranks, but success was not achieved. Samuel G. Dow of Albany, New York, patented a rotary shearer in England in 1794, and there was Samuel Dore in the same year too. John Lewis never claimed that he invented the rotary cutter, and it is possible that he made have seen drawings or actual examples of these earlier machines. His claim in his patent of 1815 was that, for the first time, he brought together a number of desirable features in one machine for shearing cloth to achieve the first really successful example. The local story in the Stroudwater district in Gloucestershire is that Lewis obtained this idea from Budding, who as a lad worked for the Lewis family, clothiers at Brinscombe Mills; Budding invented a lawn mower with rotary barrel blades that works on the same principle, patenting it in 1830. In the shearing machine, the cloth was moved underneath the blades, which could be of the same width so that only one operation was needed for each side. Other inventors had similar ideas, and a Stroud engineer, Stephen Price, took out a patent a month after Lewis did. These machines spread quickly in the Gloucestershire textile industry, and by 1830 hand-shearing was extinct. John Lewis was the son of Joseph, who had inherited the Brinscombe Mills in 1790 but must have died before 1815, when his children mortgaged the property for £12,000. Joseph's three sons, George, William and John, worked the mill for a time, but in 1840 William was there alone.

  • 20 Wire Raising Machine

    A nap raising machine used in cloth finishing in which the nap is produced by passing the cloth into contact with a number of rollers covered with card wire. The raising rollers are covered with steel wire filleting. They are mounted around the circumference of a large cylinder in a manner so that alternate rollers can be rotated in clockwise and counter-clockwise directions for pile and counter pile raising. Speed change mechanism is provided for varying the speed of the fabric through the machine, and with some cloths productions can be up to 30 yards per minute.
