Two pages from The Textile Mercury of March 19, 1892, containing a 'Designing' column with new designs for coatings and trouserings (Designs 14-17) and a section on cotton dress goods. The designs combine twill and sateen weaves with warp and weft colour schemes, yarn counts, reed and pick details. The dress goods section describes a check muslin warp-spot fabric (Design A) on 14 shafts, with a draft, pegging plan and detailed colour order for the spots. The first page also carries the end of an article on labour unions in the Lancashire cotton industry and a Foreign Correspondence column on US textile markets.
