Designing - Introductory
Page 1 of 1, a sample page, at reduced quality. Open the document to read it in full.
A page from The Textile Mercury of 16 November 1889 that opens the journal's series on textile designing. It explains the editors' plan to offer ideas and modifications for fabrics (set, yarns, colour, finishing) rather than only fixed designs. It then gives three coating designs (a regular twill, an upright twill built on a five-end sateen with a weft rib, and a twilled rib using mohair and wool weft) and a striped cheviot dress fabric (Design 4) with a draft, pegging plan, and warp/weft colour and sett details. The page ends with the start of a machinery notice on Joseph Stubbs's patent doubling winding machine.
