Concluding part of G. Lehmann's article on the technique of figured (damask) weaving, past and present. It describes how the Oskar Schleicher Greiz damask machine works, using a figure cylinder, turning knives and a plain harness to form the ground weave, and then a half-damask machine for fabrics with twill-bound borders and central fields. It opens with the end of a preceding passage on twill-bound tablecloth patterns, with repeat and shaft calculations. A second, unrelated article by M. Loescher on patterning pullover fabrics follows, covering ice, cock's-tread (houndstooth), windmill and waffle weaves, with small drawdown sketches.
