Short 1890 article from The Textile Mercury on textile design for dress fabrics and worsted coatings and trouserings. It discusses applying a conventional leaf motif (Figure 4) using sateen distribution, double plain, or extra materials, and gives yarn counts, reed, picks per inch and warp colourings for Designs 29-33. Point-paper drawdowns of Designs 29-32 and the Figure 4 motif are printed. The first page also carries a preceding column on dyeing cotton in shades from pink to prune, plus a news item on German aniline dye firms acquiring Levinstein's Manchester works.
