Two pages of the monthly "Dictionary of Weaves" series from Posselt's Textile Journal, consisting of large sixteen-harness drawdown grids (16 x 48, 16 x 24, 16 x 16 and 16 x 8) with little text. The printed notes say the dictionary collects weaves taken from market fabrics in cotton, wool, worsted and silk, and that the finished work would hold over 30,000 practical weaves. The figures show twill and figured weave patterns.
