Two-page "Designing" column from The Textile Mercury giving new fabric designs for manufacturers. The first page discusses Hindoo (Indian) fabrics, advising manufacturers to follow native taste in colour and geometric form, and describes a Dhooty silk border woven in Bombay with its colour scheme. The second page covers worsted stripe patterns (Design 50, built on a 7-end corkscrew weave, with warp and weft setts) and dress fabrics with silk and worsted (Design 51, Figure 9). Drawdown-style design grids accompany the text.
