A German-language textbook on jacquard weaving by Franz Donat, in three parts. The first part covers technology: the parts, numbering, construction and harness tie-up (Schnürung) of jacquard machines. The second part covers weave structures of jacquard fabrics, from simple jacquard, damask and brocade through double, triple and quadruple cloths, figured rep, piqué, matelassé, upholstery fabrics, tapestry imitations, brocaded fabrics, pile and carpet fabrics (Brussels, Tournai, tapestry carpets), terry, and leno/gauze (Dreher). The third part teaches fabric decomposition and calculation, with worked examples (towels, bedspreads, tablecloths, upholstery, carpets) giving warp and weft counts, reeding, card punching and hook allocation. The book ends with errata and about 36 plates of fabric samples, point-paper designs, cross-sections and loom diagrams.
