Oh, and before I forget...

I only wish there were more diagrams of different weaves of cloth or of clothing construction, but you know, if I had my way, the book would have little cloth samples attached and patterns and color combinations and everything.

If you can find a copy, look at 5,000 Years of Korean Textiles: An illustrated history and technical survey (한국직물오천년) by Sim Yon-ok
ISBN: 8995269103 (Worldcat entry)

It doesn't have fabric samples attached, but it is high quality, colour photographed, textile porn. With line drawings too, in English and Korean.
