A 1927 installment of Artur Hamann's serial on textile merchandise knowledge (Webwarenkunde), covering flannel and napped cotton and wool fabrics. It defines trade names such as half-wool flannel, Viyella, Lama, Zephir, the Fancy fabrics, Barchent (fustian) types, Spagnolett, Biber and Velour/Veloutine. For each it gives the weave (plain, 2/2 twill, herringbone, warp satin, crepe), yarn counts, thread densities per cm, fibre content and uses. Illustrated with fabric sample photographs (Abb. 77-80) and a thread-order stripe sequence for a Viyella flannel.
