Additional Notes: |
|
| Dutch ..... Historische term voor een wollen stof die eerst wordt geweven (in platbinding of keperbinding) en vervolgens wordt vervilt. Daardoor is hij warmer dan geweven stoffen maar sterker dan vilt. De historische lakennijverheid had de neiging zich in bepaalde gebieden te concentreren, zoals Noord-Frankrijk, Vlaanderen en Holland. |
