Four pages from Posselt's Textile Journal, June 1914 (pp. 144-147), with a continuing installment on designing jacquard silks figured with an extra filling. It covers planning the point paper design, calculating card counts, choosing a ground weave (a 10-harness granite) and stitching floating figure picks on the back with an 8-leaf satin, with figures showing the design and weave analyses. The pages also include a list of alpaca lining fabrics with thread counts and twill weaves, and an article by F. H. Farwell on defects in piece-dyed woolens such as uneven dyeing and stains.
