Dooley is an educational publication written in the early 20th century. The text serves as a comprehensive resource for vocational schools, focusing on the manufacturing and testing of textiles across various applications like commercial, industrial, and domestic arts. The guide aims to fill a void in specialized education by providing detailed insights into fibers, yarns, and the processes involved in textile creation. The opening of the book introduces the concept of textiles, defining them as materials made from long or short fibers that can be spun into thread and woven into cloth. Dooley categorizes fibers into various types: animal, vegetable, mineral, remanufactured, and artificial. The discussion emphasizes the qualitative attributes that make fibers suitable for textile use, particularly focusing on wool and its unique properties. This sets the stage for deeper exploration of the wool-making process and the broader textile industry, highlighting the importance of understanding these fundamentals for those entering the textile and allied trades.
