The latter is fixed on the hackling bench in such amanner as to slope upwards towards the workers stand. Generally two sets of hackles are used in succession ; acoarse and a fine or finishing hackle ; or three may be em-ployed : coarse, intermediate and fine, the latter having alarger number of finer needles set closer together on theboard. For flax intended for spinning the finest kinds of yarn(such as that required for lace), two, three, four or even six setsof hackles of progressively increasing fineness are employed. The hackler takes hold of a tress of flax, which he twistsround his right hand, and spreads the free portion out likea fan with the left, then throws it over the needles and carefullydraws it towards him. The treatment is gradually applied toall other parts of the tress in succession, and when one end isfinished the tress is turned round and the other half treated in 28 TEXTILE RAW
