Linen spinning - Asaitoboseki

Japanese: 麻糸紡績 - あさいとぼうせき
Linen spinning - Asaitoboseki
In Japan, linen has long been made by spinning hemp (hemp) and ramie (ramie), but since the Meiji period, flax and jute have been used instead. Flax, whose thread and fabric are called linen, has been cultivated in Europe since ancient times because it grows well in cold regions, and France, Belgium, and Ireland are known as famous production areas. Currently, in Japan, flax is the main material used for spinning and weaving, depending on the characteristics and uses of each plant. The stalks of flax are soaked and crushed, and the fibers are combed using a hackling machine equipped with steel needles to make long fibers. The short fibers that are scraped off are called short fibers. The long fibers are spun using a continuous machine and a drawing machine, and then put into a fine spinning machine to make thread. The short fibers are spun using a process similar to that for cotton and wool. Ramie spinning (choma) uses chemicals to remove pectin and rubber before spinning. → Hemp → Related topics Spinning | Spinning industry

Japanese:
日本では古くからタイマ(大麻),チョマ(カラムシ)を紡いで麻布を作ったが,明治以後アマ(亜麻),コウマ(ジュート)が入る。糸や布をリネンと称するアマは,寒冷地でもよく育つためヨーロッパでは古くから栽培され,フランス・ベルギー・アイルランドが名産地として知られる。現在日本ではアマを中心にそれぞれの性状,用途に応じた紡織が行われている。アマは茎を浸漬,破砕ののち,鋼針を植えたハックリング機で繊維をくしけずり,長線とする。かき落とされた短繊維を短線という。長線は続線機・延線機による粗紡を経て精紡機にかけられ糸となる。短線は綿や毛と類似の工程で紡績される。ラミー紡績(チョマ)は紡績の前に薬品を用いてペクチン質やゴム質を除去する。→麻
