Two pages from The Textile Mercury, 27 June 1891, with a "Designing" column of new fabric designs for dobby and jacquard manufacture. It gives a fancy plaid on 14 shafts with a color order, a figured dress fabric (Sketch C, Design 53) in silk or cotton warp with silk or mohair weft, a two-color vesting on five shafts, and a 12-shaft shirting with an arrow stripe. Each design has warp and weft sett, yarn counts, colors, drafts and pegging plans. The first page opens with the end of an unrelated passage on child labor laws in several European countries.
