The thesis of this endeavor was to choose a basic material, in this case, wool, and follow this medium from the beginning, through its preparation, not only by spinning the wool into yarn, but also by collecting dyestuffs and dyeing the fibers, and onto its finished product, the weaving. In order to collect natural dyestuffs, it became a vital part of this thesis to advocate the preservation and conservation of flora in the event that others might, too, seek to fulfill an inward quest to weld man closer to his material. This study is not to be confused with any attempt toward reviving two yesteryear crafts which lean toward the sentimental; it deals entirely with man’s relationship to the basic material with which he associates himself.To further pursue the same theme, no luxury of a foot loom was to be afforded the weaver. This demanded ingenuity for the execution of the work while, at the same time, commanding respect for the wool fibers.
