pickI looked at this book as a potential text for a short class I‘m teaching on textile taxonomy, and while it is not appropriate for that purpose, it‘s a book that I love just as a fun read. The introduction is by Tim Gunn and Mood‘s approach to the selling of fabrics is well served by this overall survey style book on fabrics and fibers.
