Three pages from Posselt's Textile Journal, March 1911, covering two textile-design instruction pieces. The first explains how to combine two foundation weaves of different repeats, drafting warp threads alternately, to produce large-repeat effect weaves that need few harnesses, with worked calculations of repeat size and harness count and Figs. 1-25 combining twills, broken twills and corkscrews. The second, a continuation of the Fabric Analysis series, covers picking out samples with one warp system and two filling systems (face and back picks) and begins on double cloth.
