Weaving GernuM ftetfl the close of the Eighteenth century all fabrics carrying colored designs were woven entirely by hand. About 1801 Joseph Mam Jacquard Invented an attachment which Is placed at the top of a loom and automat Ically selects strands of yarn required to form the patterns and draws them up to make the surface of the cloth and at the same time leaves the other strand to form the back of the fabric. The attachment has ever since been called the jacquard. The Invention was first put Into commercial use ISO) In France.
