Page 1 of 1, a sample page, at reduced quality. Open the document to read it in full.
A page from the Textile Mercury (14 December 1889) in the Designing column, giving new designs for lustre fabrics made with mohair, alpaca and lustre yarns. It explains Designs 12 to 15 with warp and weft particulars: a sateen-based figured pattern, a crammed stripe, a double plain cloth with interchanging layers, and a matelasse-style fabric. A short section on Scotch tweeds follows, with a Holy Isle-inspired colour warp for a 4-end twill and drawdown blocks B and C.
