A 1929 article from The Melliand by James Chittick describing four unusual fabrics with their construction details. They are a striped gauze-like cloth of cotton and rayon woven without leno, a French double cloth with leno-woven face and back that produces a moiré effect, a silk satin 'Reed Ombré' tie fabric created by irregular reeding, and a silk braid made to imitate straw for hats. It gives yarn types and sizes, reed and dent counts, picks per inch, binding notations, and finishing notes, with photographs of the samples.
