Two pages from The Textile Mercury of April 4, 1891, giving design notes for the cloth trade. The first part offers warp color patterns for cotton dress figures, zephyr stripes and ginghams, with reed, yarn counts and ends. The second part, 'Woollens and Worsteds', discusses Designs 25, 26 and 27 (diagonal checks, an 8-end sateen with weft rib, hopsack with warp rib), with suggested yarns, reed and picks per inch. Weave plans, a pegging plan and a draft for a 20-shaft dress figure appear on page 2. The scan also begins with unrelated trade news.
