Two pages from The Textile Mercury, 16 April 1892. The first is installment IX of the series "The Analysis of Pattern," on pile fabrics: weft pile (cut after weaving, in the loom, or by shrinkage) and warp pile formed over wires, with cut and uncut loops, two-colour pile and different wire heights. It includes point-paper designs and diagrams. The second page is "New Designs: Cotton Dress Fabrics," which gives drafts, pegging plans and set details for three checked and plaid cotton dress fabrics (Designs A, B, C), along with warp and weft colour suggestions and four tartan and plaid colour sequences.
