Two pages from the Textile Mercury of 16 May 1891, in its designing column. They describe a new jacquard figure for dress or mantle cloth (Figure E, Design 43), built from circular arrangements of graduated spikes, with suggested cotton warp and woollen weft constructions. The pages also give ten plain-weave and ten four-shaft twill colour-and-weave gingham stripe patterns with warp counts, sett and colour sequences, and a new all-over figured design for silk and cotton dress goods with a pegging plan, a 28-shaft straight draft and colour suggestions.
