An article from The Textile Mercury of January 23, 1892, giving new design suggestions for cotton stripes, plaids and a figured dress fabric. It gives warp and weft counts, reed setts and colour sequences for two striped patterns and seven plaid patterns on six shafts, with a pegging plan and draft for Design A. It closes with a figured worsted or silk dress fabric (Design 7) with yarn and sett details, suggested substitutions of mohair and worsted, and notes on using double plain weave for solid leaf areas.
