Designs for Dressgoods Figured with Extra Warp (one end Ground, one end Figure), and Executed on the Double Section Tie-up.

In the article explaining the double section tie-up, [see [Chapter VI., p. 48]], as well as the one on the selection of the proper squared paper required for these fabrics, the general character of these fabrics has been explained.

As mentioned in Chapter VI., the machine is divided in two parts, figure and ground; the Jacquard harness is leased one end figure, one end ground, and repeated.

[Fig. 96] illustrates a part of such a design, and is to be cut for the figure part of the needles.

[Fig. 97] shows the plain weave, which is cut without a design in that portion of the card which operates the ground of the Jacquard harness.

[Fig. 98] shows the analysis of the woven fabric for the design referred to in [Fig. 96].

[N. B.—The plain weave used for explaining the present example may be substituted by other weaves, as a

twill,

twill, or the four harness broken twill, etc., without changing the figure design.]
