An article from Posselt's Textile Journal (June 1912) on how to distribute figures in Jacquard silk designs for all-over repeating patterns. It compares plain settings (square and diamond plans) with regular and irregular satin settings of 4 to 13 changes, and explains the advantages and drawbacks of each. It includes a geometric method for placing a figure in five positions, notes on the Royle card stamper and repeater, and the start of a section on spider weaves with honeycomb effects. Plates show sample repeat designs and point-paper diagrams of the satin settings.
