Sample pages
Page 1, at reduced quality. Open the document to read every page in full.
Two pages from Posselt's Textile Journal, May 1915, with a lesson on epingle weaves for woolens and worsteds and a continued installment on making ribbons with raised loops. The epingle section explains ten weaves (Figs. 1-10) built from 45-degree twills drafted by satin draws with various counters. The ribbon section describes a taffeta-ground ribbon whose loops are formed by floating filling around wires, with a pick-by-pick explanation of the 32-pick weave plan. Both parts include weave diagrams, and the first page also has the end of an article on the history of the hand stocking frame.
