In this edition of Tuesday Trades, learn how flax, cotton, and wool are converted from tangled masses into orderly, precise fabrics, ranging from simple linens for shirts and shifts to blankets, towels, dyed wool for needlework, and stout woolens for military uniforms. Colonial Williamsburg represents the largest and most diverse representation of traditionally apprenticed, historical trades in the world. View the live and archived “With the Weavers” video here.
