Two pages from The Textile Mercury of January 10, 1891, with a 'Designing' column on new woollen and worsted designs and a linen and cotton spring dress design. The column describes a reversible warp sateen effect, double plain diagonal effects, and sett, yarn and colour suggestions. It also gives warp and weft colour patterns for silk spring dress fabrics in a cassimere or 6-end twill. Page 2 has point-paper drawdowns with a working plan and drafts for the designs. The pages also include a 'Foreign Correspondence' column on US textile trade matters.
