Installment of a serial article from Posselt's Textile Journal on designing Jacquard silk dress goods in which the figure is produced by floating an extra filling over a single cloth ground (twill, granite, crepe or satin). It explains the straight trough tie-up of the Jacquard harness and comberboard, and compares standard machine sizes (400 and 600 American index, 600 French index, 1304 Fine index, 2608 Double Fine index) by hooks, needles and speed. It ends with a worked example of calculating warp threads per inch and the size of the design sketch for point paper. Figures show a tie-up diagram, card layouts and a fabric sketch; the article is marked to be continued.
