Ornamentation of the "Harvard" Weave of Cloth
Page 1 of 1, a sample page, at reduced quality. Open the document to read it in full.
A one-page article from Posselt's Textile Journal (October 1917) on ornamenting cloth woven in the harvard weave (2 up 2 down, 4-harness even-sided or fancy cassimere twill). It describes colored-thread stripe effects and then presents five 12-harness figured weaves built from four-end twills as substitutes for the plain harvard. It gives repeat sizes, a drawing-in draft that enlarges Fig. 1 into Fig. 2, and suggestions for stripe combinations, color schemes and thread counts for dress goods.
