Ginghams, checks, zephyrs, although coloured goods, are of plain weave, and of unclassifiable dimensions.
Other plain cloths needing little remark in consequence of their unimportance are:—
| Tarletan Muslin | 52 inches 40 yards, 13 square |
| Chambrey | 28 inches 30 yards, 27 × 22 |
| Hair-cord Muslin | 59 inches 24 yards, 20 × 22 |
| Warped 1 twofold, and 1 fine single. | |
| Blue Mottle | 27 inches 96 yards, 16 × 11 |
| Blue warp, white weft. | |
Victoria lawns, fine goods, and Taffechelas, formerly important goods, are now in little request.
