Does anyone know a good book or article on the history
of selvages? I am specifically trying to find out why some wools have a
different color selvage than the fabric and why some cottons, silks and
linens have varying widths of blue stripes in the selvage area. I think
the stripes may have something to do with a code for manufacturer or
mill origin. Would appreciate any suggestions and sources. Thanx, Joan |
