Two journal pages from a serialized dictionary of textile terms, covering entries from "Silk Doubling" through "Sindh Carpets". Most entries concern silk: doubling, throwing, reeling, scouring, waste, silk gut, silkworms, and silk fabrics such as silk muslin, rep, serge, and tartan. Illustrations show a silk doubling frame, a magnified silk fibre, the fibroin apparatus, a silk filling engine, a silk reel, and a single-fly silk reeling frame. Other entries define silk warp flannel, simla, simple (draw loom cords), and Sina and Sindh rugs.
