A short 1927 German trade-journal article by weaving manager A. Farmer on why selvedges curl or roll inward during fulling of woolen cloth, especially in twills, cross twills and satins with uneven face and back effects. He recommends weaving the selvedges in a balanced binding (plain weave and its variants, shown in five small diagrams, Abb. 1-5) instead of the ground weave. He also gives practical tips: keep selvedges as thick as the cloth, stretch the cloth during fulling, and sew the two selvedges together into a tube. The page also carries the end of a meeting report on loom standardization (pickers, pattern chain cylinders) and the start of a note on high-speed warp knitting machines by Aberle.
