Article from Posselt's Textile Journal (May 1911) explaining how to tie up a Jacquard harness straight through in two sections, for fabrics with two warp systems and one filling. It uses a 200-hook machine with a 4-row, two-division compass board example, and explains how leashes are assigned and how warp threads are leased alternately from sections A and B. A figured dress goods example covers texture, repeat size, point-paper design (Fig. 3), a 10 by 10 granite ground weave (Fig. 4), and an analysis grid of figure and ground warp interlacing (Fig. 5).
