Two pages from the July 1915 issue of Posselt's Textile Journal, continuing a series on Jacquard designing. The text discusses over-ruling of designs on point paper, designing for napped fabrics such as woolen shawls, and how commercial taste, commission merchants and retailers shape new styles. It also covers how designs pass from expensive to cheaper fabrics and how a design must suit its use and the capacity of the Jacquard machine. Figures 5 to 8 show sample Jacquard designs. A short item on silk tenders for the Egyptian Holy Carpet follows.
