Could someone please post this to Merry Rose, and anywhere else you
think people might be interested?

This was posted today on Fibernet, and forwarded to WeaveTech:
Donald B. Wagner, co-author of "Pattern and Loom" (John Becker) has
inherited
the copyright to this work, revised it, and posted it on the Interned for
download at this site:

The message that I received says that Mr. Wagner is also negotiating with a
Danish publisher for a 2nd printed edition.

This book was written by a weaver who analyzed fancy period fabrics, such as
samitum, lampas, and damask, figured out how they were woven, and made
samples on drawlooms. This book describes his work. It is a wonderful book,
and I am thrilled to see it so readily available.
