Two pages from The Textile Mercury (March 5, 1892) containing part V of the series 'The Analysis of Pattern', on fancy combination twills, backed cloths and double cloths, with advice on analysing woven fabrics and finding how backing is tied to the face. A second section, 'Cotton Dress Goods Designs', discusses fashion and colours for cotton dress goods and gives draft, pegging plan and threading details for a fancy zephyr stripe with small warp spots. The pages include draft grids for Designs 9-15 and A, plus magnified thread diagrams. The first page also opens with an editorial on the Lancashire cotton trade and labour unions.
