Quotation from: General Science

Written by: Bertha M. Clark


Color designs of the greatest durability are produced by the weaving
together of colored yarns. When yarn is dyed, the coloring matter
penetrates to every part of the fiber, and hence the patterns formed
by the weaving together of well-dyed yarns are very fast to light and
water.


If the color designs to be woven in the cloth are intricate, complex
machinery is necessary and skillful handwork; hence, patterns formed
by the weaving of colored yarns are expensive and less common than
printed fabrics.
