A two-page installment (continued from the May issue) of H. Barlow's serial on terry pile fabrics, covering 4-pick, 5- and 6-pick, 2-pick and 3-pick terry weaves. It explains how loops form, when the reed beats up, how ground and pile threads are drafted and bound, and compares weave arrangements for fast and loose pile. Drawn weave diagrams, sections and drafts show the structures, with notes on end uses such as towels, bath sheets, counterpanes and quilting and drapery fabrics.
