A paper presented at the 1915 annual meeting of the Textile Institute reporting a technical analysis of several hundred German and Austrian fabrics collected by the Board of Trade. Fabrics are described by number, with yarn counts, ends and picks per inch, twist direction, fibre content, dyes and finishing, selling prices, and weave, many with weave diagrams (Figs. 1-42). Groups include blankets, shawls, dressing-gown fabrics, flannelettes, printed furnishing fabrics, crepes, fancy yarn fabrics, men's suitings, and table linen, followed by concluding remarks and discussion.
