A two-page article from The Textile Mercury, 21 May 1892, with a "Designing" column of new fabric designs for cotton, linen, silk and worsted. It gives Designs A to E with drafts and point-paper weave diagrams, plus yarn counts, sett, picks per inch and colour schemes. The text discusses colour contrast in warp and weft, and also covers a diagonal-stripe muslin with spun silk, a cotton-linen mixed fabric, a stripe of warp rib and 8-end sateen, a loosely bound milling cloth, and a modified 13-end corkscrew weave. The first page also carries unrelated dyeing and printing notes.
