A Study in Weave Formation; Tricot Weaves
Page 1 of 1, a sample page, at reduced quality. Open the document to read it in full.
A single-page article from Posselt's Textile Journal (May 1916) explaining the design of tricot weaves, which produce rib effects and an elastic fabric used for trouserings, dress goods, cloakings and suitings. It divides them into filling tricots and warp tricots and describes eight drawdown figures (3-, 4-, 8- and 12-harness) with repeats and their twill foundations. The last example is a Jersey-cloth imitation built on a cotton and worsted warp arrangement, with notes on loom width and fulling.
