Satisfactory Essays
The causes of the Industrial Revolution began because of England they were the main trade route to everything and others weren’t liking that idea so they went against England. It all started with the textile (cloth) industry making cloth by hand, for pants, shirts, socks, bedspreads and other. Items always required skill and time. As the population grew in England, more people needed and were willing to buy textile goods. In 1733, James Kay, a clockmaker, invented a simple weaving machine called the flying shuttle(Doc6). He built it, supposedly, with nothing more than a pocketknife and his tool. The flying shuttle improved on the old hand loom. The machine only came into general use in the 1760s- after decades of trial- and-error improvements.
