Two pages from The Textile Mercury, 30 August 1890, covering the 'Designing' column. It gives a clan tartan design (McDonnell of Glengarry) with threading, color sequence, reed and pick counts for cotton. It continues a technical series on gauze fabrics, explaining doup and stationary threads, pick grouping, healding and pegging plans, and the development of Figure C. It closes with notes on a woollen mantle cloth design (Design 176) related to 2 and 2 twill.
