A very short encyclopedia entry defining osnaburg as a coarse plain-weave fabric, originally of flax yarn and later of flax, tow or jute. It notes the warp and weft combinations used, that finer grades serve as common sheeting, and gives typical thread counts of 20 to 36 ends and 10 to 15 picks per inch.
