Page 1, at reduced quality. Open the document to read every page in full.
Two pages from the December 1911 issue of Posselt's Textile Journal. The first page finishes a discussion of leno (doup) weaving, with drawing-in drafts and harness chains for left- and right-hand doups. It then begins the article on novelties in cotton fabrics with a figured madras shirting, giving the design on point paper, the warp stripe arrangement, reed and drawing-in details, beam layout, take-up and yarn weights per yard and per 1000 yards. The second page describes the Crompton & Knowles metal doup-heddle for Jacquard leno weaving, which replaces the twine doup.
