From the Author

Weaving is weaving, the source of power notwithstanding
Handloom Weaving Technology is based on the thesis that regardless of its source of power, hand or motor, weaving is weaving. The same physical principles govern the making of cloth regardless of method. Handloom weavers particularly need to take advantage of the broad range of technologies available to them from principles and methodologies developed and proven in the rest of the industry. Viewed in this light, handloom weaving can be seen as a far more serious endeavor than heretofore.
