Two pages from the April 1909 issue of Posselt's Textile Journal (pp. 127-128) from the serialized 'Dictionary of Weaves'. They consist almost entirely of twelve-harness weave drawdowns, in 12 x 12 and 12 x 24 repeats, showing twill, diagonal and block patterns. A footnote says the complete dictionary will hold about 20,000 practical weaves taken from woven fabrics, with about 1,500 published so far.
