Museum of science and industry

Mid project my boyfriend decided he wanted to take a trip to the MOSI, so reluctantly i went along too. Thinking that all id be looking at would be engines and planes i wasnt too excited. But to my excitement i found a whole section of the museum dedicated to the cotton industry and in particular, weave! I listened in awe as a representative of the MOSI gave a talk about the industry in the 1800's and found the stories of how young children used to rick their lives to clean the looms fascinating. Here are my snaps from the day.
