Two pages from the July 1916 installment of E. A. Posselt's serialized Dictionary of Textile Terms, covering entries from Dog Knot through Drap Edredon. Entries define fibers, fabrics, wools, embroidery stitches, and machinery, along with weaving terms such as double cloth, double pick, doup, leno or gauze weaving, draft, and drafting. Many entries describe French and East Indian fabrics, sheep breeds, and silk terms.
