Installment of E. A. Posselt's serial on fabric analysis from Posselt's Textile Journal, November 1916. It explains how to determine the loom setting (width in reed versus finished width), the take-up of the warp in weaving, and shrinkage in finishing for cotton, silk, woolen and worsted fabrics. It then covers recording color, count and twist arrangements on point paper while picking out a weave, with worked examples of a worsted trousering and a worsted suiting (Figs. 51-53) and their warp dressings and weave drafts.
