Two pages from Posselt's Textile Journal, July 1915, with the installment "A Study in Weave Formation: Construction of Whipcords." It explains how whipcord weaves, with diagonal cord lines, are built on 7, 8 and 9 harnesses, and gives twelve weave diagrams with repeat sizes. It also lists worsted dress-goods specifications (yarn counts, threads and picks per inch, finished width and weight). Shorter items cover the end of an article on moireing, worsted yarn count calculations, a patent for mercerizing sliver with a spiral string, and a plush fabric design patented by the Stroock Plush Company.
