A piecer in the mills was a young worker, often a child or teenager, who was responsible for fixing broken threads in the spinning frames of textile mills. Their role was crucial in maintaining the continuous operation of the machinery, as they would quickly tie together the ends of yarn that had snapped during the spinning process. Piecers typically worked long hours in harsh conditions, and their labor was part of the larger system of child labor prevalent during the Industrial Revolution. Their contributions were essential to the efficiency of textile production.
