Part of a serialized article by Samuel Brown on weaving narrow elastic webbing, continued from the October issue. It covers satin-face (3-leaf twill) and 4-leaf twill webs for suspenders and corset trimming, with harness and chain drafts, and heavier webs for police and fireman braces and farmers' web. Warp constructions are given as tables of thread counts, yarn sizes, reed, filling and picks per inch, with notes on rubber threads, binder and back warps, picot edges and raised cords.
