Fulling

Engraving of Scotswomen singing a waulking song while waulking or fulling cloth, c. 1770.
A fulling mill from Georg Andreas Böckler's Theatrum Machinarum Novum, 1661

Fulling, also known as tucking or walking, is a step in woollen clothmaking which involves the cleansing of cloth (particularly wool) to eliminate oils, dirt, and other impurities, and making it thicker. The worker who does the job is a fuller, tucker, or walker, all of which have become common surnames. The Welsh word for a fulling mill is pandy, which appears in many place-names, for example Tonypandy (fulling-mill ley).
