A page from The Textile Mercury containing the weekly 'Designing' column, which discusses new designs for figured dress and mantle cloths (Designs 193-196) and an Indian dhootie border. It gives suggested yarns, reed and pick settings, colour schemes and methods of developing ground figures and extra-weft figures, with drawdown grids for each design. The page also carries the end of a French tariff table for jute goods and a short news item on the National Cordage Company.
