Steep-Twills, having a Grading of 75°
Page 1 of 1, a sample page, at reduced quality. Open the document to read it in full.
A short article from Posselt's Textile Journal (June 1920) explaining how to construct steep twills of 75° grading from regular 45° twills by using every fourth warp thread. It gives rules relating the number of harnesses in the regular twill to those in the steep twill, and works through examples (Figs. 2-6) with 7-, 8-, 9- and 10-harness steep twills derived from 28, 32, 36 and 40-harness regular twills. The page also carries a brief unrelated item on determining finishing materials in a cotton fabric.
