piecer

Someone or something that pieces.

[…] the arrogant Scribes, […] piecers-together of lies, belching out pus and ink.

A child employed in a cotton mill or spinning mill to tie together broken threads.

The piecers follow the frame in its alternate movements, catching up the broken threads, and skilfully reuniting them

William Arrol had little schooling, for, at the early age of nine years, he began work as a piecer in a Johnstone cotton-mill.

An item, especially clothing, made up of the specified number of pieces.

Outing ‘two-piecers’ that combine style and comfort in phantom-weight flannels, tropical worsteds and serges show the highest register in favoritism, and the Eiseman Bros.’ make, you know, are the universal favorites.

Girls sit unashamed on the sand with their one-piecers pulled down almost to their waistlines to tempt the coppery tan.
