Colouring, however, though +practically of primary importance in design, has not been so +efficiently taught as some branches of textile manufacturing. +The object of this book is, therefore, to supply as far as possible +a complete scheme of textile colouring, and to demonstrate the +methods of applying fancy shades to all descriptions of woven +manufactures.</p> + +<p>Referring briefly to the plan of the book: In the early +chapters the pigment and light theories of colour are expounded, +and also the attributes and qualities of colours, and +the laws of contrast and harmony. Subsequently, the technicalities +characterizing woven colour combinations are analyzed +<i lang="la">in extenso</i>.</p> + +<p>As the initiatory method of introducing tints and shades +into fabrics consists in blending raw materials of divers colours, +the art of mixing to obtain artistic mingled compositions is at +the outset fully considered. This part of the subject is possibly +of the first importance to those engaged in designing fancy +tweeds and kindred classes of woollen goods.</p> + +<p>After having treated of the combination of shades in +“blending,” reference is made to the principles of developing +simple patterns by amalgamating warp and weft yarns. The +various kinds of stripe, check, mixture, and figured effects, and +the tinting of all types of single, backed, and double cloths, of +combination patterns, of fabrics figured in the warp, in the +weft, and in both warp and weft, are all treated of at length. +Woollen, worsted, cotton, and silk fabrics, and the specific +styles of colouring applicable to each, have also obtained +detailed notice.</p> + +<p>Many of the patterns printed on the plates have been woven +at the Yorkshire College under my supervision, and are now +published for the first time; while the other figures, with the +exception of a small number appearing in the <cite>Textile Recorder</cite> +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_ix">[Pg ix]</span> +in articles I have written for that journal, and which the +Editor has kindly permitted me to use, have been specially +prepared for this book. It need scarcely be observed that the +coloured illustrations are unique, being exact representations of +the woven textures.</p> + +<p>I have pleasure in acknowledging my indebtedness to my +publishers, who have done all in their power to meet my +wishes in the execution of the plates of woven samples.</p> + +<p class="right r2"> + R.

They enter, either separately or in combination, into +the many styles of loom effects. Weave relates specifically to +the build or structure of the fabric, and is a necessary factor in +any type of texture, whether plain, twilled, or ornamental in +character. It is the scheme or plan of crossing the warp and +weft yarns that forms or produces the fabric. Weave may give +a compact texture subordinate in effect to other elements in the +design; or, it may be the constructive and not the ornamental +part of the pattern; yet in several woven specimens it possesses +both these qualities. Fabrics of this description are not embellished +with compounds of form or colour, and hence derive +their design from the structural plan employed in the operation +of weaving. Schemes of intertexture giving these results are +devised in such a manner as to form, by interlacing warp and +weft, an even fabric, decorated with a type of pattern consisting +of minute effects in threads or yarns, and which may be +subdued or decided in definition.</p> + +<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_2">[Pg 2]</span> +<a href="#fig1">Fig. 1</a> is an elementary type of Weave design or Pattern. +The weave used is <a href="#fig1a">Fig. 1<span class="allsmcap">A</span></a>.

The sphere of form in +woven design is not constructive or utilitarian, but in the +amplest sense ornamental. It is surface decoration obtained by +amalgamating, on definite principles, linear and curvilinear lines: +ornament, consisting of geometrical or floral features, is applied +to such loom products as dress, mantle, and vesting fabrics; silk +textures, including neckties, handkerchiefs, robes, and decorative +styles; damasks, quiltings, tapestries, etc.; carpets, hand-woven +or tufted (produced on the vertical loom and now made in +Donegal and some parts of Scotland as well as in the East); +velvet, or cut pile (Axminster type); looped or uncut pile +(Brussels type); and Kidderminster and other plain-surface +productions.</p> + +<p>Colour, the third characteristic in design, is differently related +to textile effects from Weave and Form. The special function of +colour is to impart brightness of tone and improve the qualities +of the design. There are many varieties of pattern in fabrics +for wear, which possess freshness owing to the style and method +of colouring practised. In the woven decorative arts, colour may +be the main constituent of the design, or employed to develop its +integral parts.</p> + +<p>2. <i>Occurrence and Utility of Colour in Loom Productions.</i>—Colour +is extensively used in woven design. It obtains, and is +the prevailing element of the pattern, in all classes of fancy +woollens, such as tweeds, flannels, and light textures, and thick +figured rugs, wraps, and shawls. Whether the pattern be stripe, +check, figure, or intermingled effect, it obtains its outline and +detail from the method of colouring adopted. But colour +is not confined to woollens; it is also an important factor +in design produced in worsted, silk, cotton, jute, ramie, and +other yarns. There is, in worsteds, a larger diversity of weave +design than in woollen or carded-yarn textures; but, still, +colour is very extensively employed to develop the effects due to +weave and form, and also to impart a cheerful and lustrous +appearance to the cloths. Patterns in dress fabrics, shirtings and +blouses, made entirely of cotton, are frequently combinations of +fancy shades; while, if the fabrics composed of silk and jute +materials are considered, including—in silk—ties, handkerchiefs, +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_4">[Pg 4]</span> +and various kinds of matelasses; and—in jute—simple carpets, +mats, and coarse rugs, it will be discovered that the colour +element of the design largely predominates. This brief summary +of the textures, in which fancy shades are used, shows that colouring, +and the combinations of colours, in all branches of woven +products embellished with design, are the elements which give +tone and character to the styles. Though the fabrics produced +may be soft to the touch, substantially made, uniform in structure, +and skilfully finished, yet a lack of brightness and harmony +of colouring so powerfully detracts from the merit of the pattern, +that these qualities, in themselves, are not sufficient to give the +fabric an attractive appearance—particulars which demonstrate +the importance of choice and tasteful colouring in designs +produced in the loom. Evidently colour is of twofold utility +in the development of woven effects; for it may, firstly, be the +sole constituent of the pattern; and, secondly, a supplementary +element which affords precision and beauty to the composition of +the design.</p> + +<p>3. <i>Treatment of Colour in Relation to Textiles.</i>—Though, to +a considerable extent, the principles of colouring are similar in +all types of decorative design—harmonious blending and contrasting +combinations possessing like qualities in whatever materials +they obtain—still there are several reasons why some of the +recognized canons of the science of colour are inappropriate, if +not inapplicable, when textiles are the media of development. +Foremost of these reasons are the technical difficulties which +arise in the employment of colour in woven pattern. There is +not the same facility nor means for its application here, as in +the treatment of ordinary surface decoration. The make of the +fabric, and the principles of its structure, determine the system +of distribution; while the general aspect of the entire body +of colouring varies according to the nature of the materials +employed. If the same colourings which appear harmonious, +neatly toned, and cheerful in arrangement in a velvet pile carpet, +were reproduced in a silk texture, many points of dissimilarity +would be noticed in the general effect obtained, though the tint +and hue of the shades combined, might be identically the same +in the respective fabrics. Why is this? Are not the apparent +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_5">[Pg 5]</span> +modifications in the colourings—for such they appear when thus +compared—due, first, to the difference in the nature of the +materials composing the textures; second, to the dissimilitude of +their structural character; and, third, to the distinct principles +of weaving practised in their production? The pile of the carpet—dense +and compact—gives breadth, force, and richness to +the colours; whereas the fine and clear texture of the silk +imparts a more precise effect to the shades, causing the whole +blend to possess an aspect which, while harmonious, lacks that +mellow quality of bloom so characteristic of the pile production. +It is clear, therefore, that colour in textiles requires to be studied +as a special art. Its functions and effects in woven fabrics are so +various and distinct from what they are in ordinary decorative +work, that it can only be effectively treated when the nature of +textile materials, and the diverse structures of the fabrics, are +considered. In a word, there are not only recognized principles +of woven design which have no place in purely ornamental art, +but also schemes and laws of colouring which simply apply to +the development of pattern in textile fabrics. Any exposition, +therefore, of the theory and practice of colouring, to be useful to +the textile technologist, must be given in relation to the varied +technicalities of the weaver’s craft.</p> + +<p>4. <i>Methods of Using Colours in Textiles.</i>—Colour is not always +applied to woven textures on the same system. The method of +utilization depends upon the composition of the design to be +woven, and on the structure of the cloth it is intended to produce. +There are fabrics in which the colour element is so decided that +the effect obtained is somewhat similar to the results noticed in +ordinary surface decoration. Take, for example, silk textures +of a ribbon class, in which, by skilful workmanship and exact +sketching, any floral form may be developed with a delicacy of +toning and correctness of delineation that cannot be improved +upon, even though the crayon or the brush should be employed. +But this is not a common, because not a useful, species of designing +and colouring. Carpets and tapestry fabrics illustrate other +principles of employing fancy shades. The structure of some +types of carpets very materially affects the character of the +colourings. In Brussels and tapestry, for instance, the loop or +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_6">[Pg 6]</span> +pile of the carpet which forms its distinguishing feature, +prevents that solidity and compactness of colouring noticeable in +the silk ribbon or dress material. If the same design and blend +of shades introduced into a Kidderminster or Scotch carpet were +subsequently applied to a Brussels production, they would be +entirely changed in appearance; for there is no common principle +of intertexture in the respective carpets. In cotton, silk, +woollen, and worsted textures, colour is found to have a +different tone or cast in each fabric. Fancy colours in +cottons, while decidedly smart and clear in effect, are comparatively +non-lustrous, raw, and dull in toning.⁠<a id="FNanchor_1_1" href="#Footnote_1_1" class="fnanchor">[1]</a> Silk is +distinguishable by brilliance of hue; woollen colourings have +a unique depth and saturation of hue characteristic of the +material employed in their manufacture; while worsted colourings +are bright, definite, and smart in appearance.</p> + +<p>These differences are due to the physical formation and +properties of the several fibres and yarns. Thus, a filament of +silk is almost transparent, and shines like a smooth glass rod +when light falls upon it; that of wool is solid and opaque in the +centre, but its exterior consists of a multitude of semi-transparent +scales, which, when of large dimensions and uniformly arranged—as +in the best qualities of Lincoln and Leicester wools—reflect +light with a minimum amount of dispersion, and impart to the +woven material a lustrous aspect. Cotton has no such partially +transparent surface. Its downy structure absorbs light freely, +while what is reflected is so broken up, that the colour resultant +is impoverished in saturation and brightness. To clearly +apprehend the degree to which the nature of the raw material is +capable of changing the tone or character of colours, compare +three plain woven textures of the same colour made of silk, +wool, and cotton respectively. Lustre, brilliance, and richness +are the features of the silk colouring. Though thus bright, +it lacks that fulness and depth of hue which appertains to +the wool production, the filaments of which closely compounded, +and all tinted alike, possess a peculiar bloom and saturation +of colouring not to be found either in the silk or cotton. +The cotton texture is somewhat dull and flat in quality of +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_7">[Pg 7]</span> +hue, lacking the brightness of silk. Such is the importance +of the relation of the material to the species of coloured effect +produced in textiles, that it will require subsequent analysis.</p> + +<p>The various methods of employing fancy shades in patterns +obtained in the loom may be briefly summarized as follows:—</p> + +<p class="p2 center"><a id="Table_1"></a> +<span class="smcap">Table <abbr title="One">I.</abbr></span><br> +<br> +<span class="smcap">Methods of Applying Colour to Textiles.</span> +</p> + +<p class="unindent"><abbr title="One">I.</abbr> In mixture cloths, for suitings, coatings, and costumes.</p> + +<p class="hangwide"><i>a.</i> By combining or blending various colours of materials.</p> + +<p class="hangwide"><i>b.</i> By combining several classes of twist threads.</p> + +<p class="unindent"><abbr title="Two">II.</abbr> In plain, twilled, mat, and fancy weave designs, for +trouserings, coatings, suitings, dresses, costumes, flannels, +shirtings, and fine textures.</p> + +<p class="hangwide"><i>a.</i> By applying colour to the warp, forming stripes.</p> +<p class="hangwide"><i>b.</i> By applying colour to the weft, producing spotted patterns.</p> +<p class="hangwide"><i>c.</i> By applying colour to both warp and weft, giving +checks and other styles. +</p> + +<p class="unindent"><abbr title="Three">III.</abbr> In figured designs for dresses, mantlings, vestings, shawls, +rugs, mauds, carpets, and tapestries.</p> + +<p class="hangwide"><i>a.</i> By using one or several series of extra warp yarns.</p> +<p class="hangwide"><i>b.</i> By using one or several series of extra weft yarns.</p> +<p class="hangwide"><i>c.</i> By using one or several series of extra yarns in both +warp and weft. +</p> + +<p>Each of these systems is capable of further subdivision; but, +as here given, they represent the principles of colouring the +general classes of woven designs.</p> + +<p>5. <i>Colour Phenomena.</i>—Under ordinary conditions, light is +essential to colour apprehension. Diversity of hue may be +made evident to the mind by mechanical agitation of the optic +nerves in a darkened room. Of course, such an experiment is +only useful as showing the media by which colour sensations +are rendered visible, or rather conveyed to the mind.</p> + +<p>The colour of an object is determined by three things: the +nature of light, the physical properties of the material on which +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_8">[Pg 8]</span> +light falls, and the power of the observer’s eye. These are +obvious conditions. Change the light from brilliant daylight +to gaslight, and a richly coloured fabric undergoes several +modifications—the hues suffer in brightness and lose a measure +of their co-relative value. Or, by using a mono-chromatic light +(that from burning sodium is a compound of two yellow lights +of similar quality in the spectrum⁠<a id="FNanchor_2_2" href="#Footnote_2_2" class="fnanchor">[2]</a>), coloured objects may be +changed to a similar hue. That colour is affected by the +nature of the material has been stated in reference to fibres +of wool, cotton, and silk.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp75" id="fig2" style="max-width: 31.25em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig2.jpg" alt="Prismatic experiment"> + <figcaption> + <p class="center"><span class="smcap">Fig. 2.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>Incapacity to correctly distinguish the hues, tones, and tints +of colour is caused by some affection of the retina. Training +and practice in the matching and blending of colours may +enhance the acuteness of colour vision. The Gobelin tapestry-weaver +will select, without hesitancy, from a bundle of bobbins +of tints of material of the same hue or colour, the one he +requires. Similarly, the carpet-weavers of Donegal—after +a period of training—will unerringly manipulate a varied +assortment of delicate colours.</p> + +<p>“Light is due to waves—or other periodic disturbances, +whose recurrence resembles that of waves—in the ether of +space; and just as air-waves of a certain definite frequency +of recurrence will induce in the ear the sensation of a sound of +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_9">[Pg 9]</span> +a particular pitch, so will the impact of ‘ether-waves’ of a certain +particular frequency induce in the eye a sensation of light of +a particular colour.”⁠<a id="FNanchor_3_3" href="#Footnote_3_3" class="fnanchor">[3]</a></p> + +<p>The extreme visible red in the spectrum is produced by 392 +billions, and the extreme visible violet by 757 billions of waves +per second.

The purity and intensity of each colour will +be observed.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp80" id="fig3" style="max-width: 31.25em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig3.jpg" alt="Design prismatic experiment"> + <figcaption> + <p class="center"><span class="smcap">Fig. 3.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>A second and useful experiment may be made as follows:—Place +a piece of black cardboard, about an inch wide and a few +inches in length, on a white ground, and view it through +the edge of a prism. If this experiment be correctly made, a +result will be obtained corresponding to <a href="#plate01"><i>B</i>, Plate <abbr title="One">I.</abbr></a> The +edge nearest the observer produces the violet, blue, and green +side of the spectrum, while the opposite edge gives red, orange, +yellow, and pale yellow—these two series of spectrum colours +of distinct qualities being divided by a narrow band of black. +Coldness is the distinguishing characteristic of the violet side, +and warmness that of the red side; in the upper portion of +the spectrum are found the intense, ostentatious hues, while +in the lower portion are the colours of a subdued, soft quality. +Yellow and green are beautifully toned. The former passes +from a yellowish orange into a pure, bright tint, which is softly +shaded off into white. Green, on the front edge of the black +line, is similarly graduated in hue, but as the band of this colour +is not so broad as the yellow strip, its shadings are not so extensive; +still, it imperceptibly changes from deep into pale green, +and diminishes in intensity until it disappears in white light. +One feature of this experiment will at once be observed, namely, +the brilliance and richness of coloured lights, when compared +with corresponding colours obtained by pigments or dye substances. +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_11">[Pg 11]</span> +Bloom, depth, and purity of hue characterize the +former; but however the latter are produced, they seem, in +comparison, to be lacking in fulness, intensity, and brightness.⁠<a id="FNanchor_5_5" href="#Footnote_5_5" class="fnanchor">[5]</a></p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp64" id="plate01" style="max-width: 37.625em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/plate01.jpg" alt="color spectrum"> + <figcaption style="color:blue;"> + <p class="center">Plate <abbr title="One">I</abbr><br> +<span class="allsmcap">A = SPECTRUM<br> +B = SPECTRUM RESULTANT FROM VIEWING A STRIP OF BLACK +ON A WHITE SURFACE THROUGH A PRISM</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>7. <i>Utility of Prismatic Experiments.</i>—Experiments with the +prism afford suggestive exercises in colour blending. Seeing +that the results of these experiments are richer by far than +those obtained by pigments, and always harmonious in tone, +they are calculated to enhance appreciation for pure and +lustrous colouring. For the purpose of successful manipulation +of prismatic experiments, and of viewing in a suitable +manner the effects that may, by this means, be produced, a +piece of black velvet or cloth should be employed, and patterns +cut out of white cardboard placed on it, and then the design +thus arranged examined through the prism. The more ingenuity +exercised in pattern origination, the more pleasing the combinations +resultant. <a href="#fig3">Fig. 3</a> illustrates the class of designs +adapted for this work. Form and arrangement should be of +the most elementary kind, and the whole pattern clear and +pronounced, in order to allow of a complete development of the +colours formed on the respective edges of the various figures. +Intermingled, diminutive patterns give confused and indistinct +effects. On the other hand, broad and large designs yield +lustrous colourings, which the experimenter may feasibly +dissect, and which teach principles in colour arrangement, +harmony, and contrast, of utility in pattern production.</p> + +<p>When the pattern in <a href="#fig3">Fig. 3</a> is viewed through the refractory +angle of a prism at a distance of about two feet, and about +three times larger than here sketched, it forms an interesting +assortment of colourings and tinted effects. Any description +of this experiment, however concise and clear, can only afford +a vague idea of the real appearance of the pattern when prismatically +examined. Still, to assist the reader to make the +experiment accurately himself, a detailed analysis is given. +Treating of the different sections of the patterns, the edge of +band A, nearest the observer, should be considered first, which +commences with pure green, running through blue, purple, +deep violet, and crimson. The crimson results from the violet +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_12">[Pg 12]</span> +rays of this edge blending with the intense red rays of the +further edge of band <i>A</i>.</p> + +<p><span class="smcap">Small Lines <i>B</i> and <i>C</i>.</span> The former begins with crimson, +which successively changes into scarlet, orange, and yellow, a +small strip of white separating these colours from those of +band <i>C</i>, which consists of various tints of green and orange.</p> + +<p><span class="smcap">Diamond Figures of Band <i>A</i>.</span> The front edges of these +are tinted with scarlet, orange, and yellow, and the opposite +edges with various shades of green.</p> + +<p><span class="smcap">Circles of Band <i>D</i>.</span> First, as to the edges nearest the +observer. These are coloured with emerald-green and grass-green. +It will be noticed that the green in this section of +the pattern is distinct from that produced by the front edge +of band <i>A</i>, being, as stated, more grass- than sea-green. +Its peculiar tint results from the orange rays of the upper +edge of band <i>C</i> intermingling with the green rays of the +circles. As the centres of the circles are approached, green +is succeeded by blue, purple, and black. Second, as to the +distant edges of the circles. At these points red, crimson, scarlet, +and orange—the latter colour graduating imperceptibly into +yellow—all occur. It is notable that the yellow hue is somewhat +dingy, being adulterated with other colours. Compare it, +for example, with the yellow resulting from the extreme edge of +this diagram. Its dulness and impurity are due to certain colours +intermingling with it. Thus, the space between the extreme edge +of the circles and band <i>E</i> is so limited, that the yellow rays of +the circular objects combine with the green rays of the latter, +and, as a consequence, the yellow suffers in purity and luminosity.</p> + +<p><span class="smcap">Bands <i>E</i>, <i>F</i>, and the Front Edge of <i>G</i>.</span> These, very closely +resembling strips <i>B</i>, <i>C</i>, and <i>A</i>, require no description.</p> + +<p><span class="smcap">Extreme Edge of Band <i>C</i>.</span> Here the red side of the spectrum +is seen in its intensity and lustre; it begins with deep red, +which gradually verges into orange, and the latter into yellow.</p> + +<p>This simple experiment demonstrates the value of prismatic +results. All colourists should study shade combinations through +these media. Analysis of the colourings obtained in this +manner increases the acuteness of the faculty of discrimination +of the brilliance and depth of hue of individual colours. Though, +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_13">[Pg 13]</span> +in practice, the textile designer has to deal exclusively with +pigments and dye substances, yet the intensity and beauty of +the combinations resulting from the decomposition of light are +so novel and suggestive, that all desirous of cultivating aptitude +for harmonious colourings will be at pains to multiply experiments +of this class, which afford a true conception of what +constitutes harmony and contrast in colours.</p> + +<p>That such compounds of spectrum colours have an application +to textile design is evident from the specimens on <a href="#plate02a">Plate <abbr title="Two">II.</abbr></a>, +in which tints of the pure or prismatic colours are used in +silk fabrics. The mode of distribution is irregular, but this is +done for the purpose of subduing the strength of contrast +which would be formed if the colours were used on the basis +of the experiment described. Two fabrics are given as examples +on <a href="#plate02a">Plate <abbr title="Two">II.</abbr> <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 1</a>, a silk ribbon, is produced by weaving in +a bold warp rep or cord weave, the colours being arranged in the +warp to give the intermingled shaded effect. The weft is a thick, +yellow cotton yarn, but, owing to the weave structure, does not +show on either the face or underside of the texture. In the +second example, <a href="#plate02b"><abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 2</a>, the colouring is due to printing the warp +prior to weaving.

The +former deals with the phenomena of colours, the attributes of +light, and the laws, which control the modification of the +intensity, hue, and tone of colours. These varied phenomena +are theoretically of value, but as they have few practical +applications, the pigment theory of colouring is necessarily +adopted in the applied arts, and deals with colour as an +active element in decorative design. Every possible shade +and hue of colour may be obtained by mixing red, yellow, +and blue in variable proportions, and, of course, by toning +and tinting with white and black. Mixtures of lights and +pigments, however, do not give analogous results. Lambert⁠<a id="FNanchor_6_6" href="#Footnote_6_6" class="fnanchor">[6]</a> +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_14">[Pg 14]</span> +is credited with being the first to discover and prove that +the colours due to these two causes were rarely identical, +and frequently widely dissimilar. His method of doing this +consisted in using two coloured wafers, <i>A</i> and <i>B</i> (<a href="#fig4">Fig. 4</a>), which +were placed on a black surface, and a piece of ordinary glass, <i>g</i>, +fixed vertically. It was found that when blue and yellow were +thus simultaneously seen, the rays reflected by them did not, +when co-mingled, give green, but a whitish-coloured sensation. +This fact was also subsequently elaborated by Helmholtz, who +pushed his inquiries into the spectrum itself, and, by blending +the lights, obtained valuable +results. Blue-green, when +mixed with red, instead of +giving a brownish or greenish +grey, as with pigments, was +found, like ultramarine blue +and yellow, to also constitute +white light. With pigments, +a mixture of chrome yellow +and ultramarine blue, in variable +quantities, forms different +tints of green. Microscopic examination of this compound does +not reveal the separate particles of yellow and blue pigments, +but simply the greenish hue. The real and obvious distinction +between spectrum and pigment combinations is that the former +are additions, while the latter are subtractions. Knowing this, +it will at once be evident that the colours obtained by these two +methods cannot coincide.</p> + +<p>The following are some of the results of combining coloured +lights and pigments respectively:⁠—</p> + +<p class="p2 center"><a id="Table_3"></a> +<span class="smcap">Table <abbr title="Three">III.</abbr></span><br> +<br> +<span class="smcap">Compounds of Coloured Lights.</span> +</p> + +<p class="hanging"> + Red + green = yellow.

Young and Helmholtz take red, green, and violet; +vermilion, emerald-green, and ultramarine blue are selected by +Maxwell. When the subject of colour is considered with a +view to its practical application to the arts, it is needful to +base all combinations on the scheme elucidated by Chevreul, +Hey, Field, and others—that red, blue, and yellow (<a href="#plate03">Plate +III.</a>, <abbr title="Numbers">Nos.</abbr> 1, 2, and 3) are primary colours, and all others +the resultants of mixing them in variable quantities. For +technical purposes, it is therefore only feasible to deal with +colour as it changes, according to the pigments combined; +hence red, yellow, and blue will be regarded as primaries, +because, when mixed with each other and with black and +white, every possible shade of colour may be obtained.</p> + +<p>10. <i>Compound Colours.</i>—These are of two classes—secondaries +and tertiaries. The secondaries—green, orange, and +purple (<a href="#plate03">Plate <abbr title="Three">III.</abbr></a>, <abbr title="Numbers">Nos.</abbr> 4, 5, and 6)—are composed of two +primaries, while the tertiaries—russet, citron, and olive (<a href="#plate03">Plate +<abbr title="Three">III.</abbr></a>, <abbr title="Numbers">Nos.</abbr> 7, 8, and 9)—are composed of two secondaries. Orange +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_16">[Pg 16]</span> +and purple produce russet or reddish brown; orange and green +produce citron or greenish olive; and green and purple, olive. +On reducing these shades to their simple elements, it is found +that they are each composed of three primaries, with one predominating +and giving tone to the colour. Russet, for instance, +contains a double portion of red, for red is a constituent of +both the orange and purple which enter into its composition; +citron contains a double portion of yellow, and olive a double +portion of blue.</p> + +<p>The hue or tone of a compound colour is determined by the +proportionate quantities of the primaries combined in its production. +For example, to procure a bluish green, blue must +be the predominating and yellow the subordinate colour; while, +on the other hand, to obtain a yellowish green, yellow would +be the predominating and blue the subordinate colour. Reddish +or yellowish orange is got by increasing the red or yellow +constituents of this colour; and bluish or reddish purple, by +increasing the blue or red components of this secondary. This +affords some idea of how colours are modified and multiplied. +Taking the three secondaries and subjecting them to similar +treatment, a diversity of shades will be found to result. +Russet (<a href="#plate03">Plate <abbr title="Three">III.</abbr></a>, <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 7) is composed of two parts red, one +part yellow, and one part blue. It will be obvious that by +varying these proportions another series of hues will result. +By increasing the red constituent, the warmth of the colour +is intensified; by increasing the yellow, the reddish tone is +neutralized; while an increase of the blue would add to its +depth and saturation. Similar results are obtained by modifying +the constituents of the other primaries. Thus citron—composed +of two parts yellow, one part blue, and one part red—may +be changed to a yellowish, bluish, or brownish citron, +according to the quantity of yellow, blue, or red used. Olive, +which consists of two parts blue, one part red, and one +part yellow, varies from a deep olive-green, brownish olive, +to a yellowish olive-green, as the blue, red, and yellow constituents +are increased.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp100" id="plate02a" style="max-width: 156.75em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/plate02a.jpg" alt="spectral colouring"> + <figcaption style="color: blue;"> + <p class="center">Plate <abbr title="Two">II</abbr><br> + <span class="allsmcap">SPECTRAL COLOURING OF FABRICS</span><br> + <span class="smaller">1.

They are generally used for the ground of +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_17">[Pg 17]</span> +the fabric, while the secondaries and primaries are utilized in +enhancing the brightness of the pattern.</p> + +<p>11. <i>The Three Constants of Colour.</i>—The three constants of +colour are, <i>purity</i>, <i>luminosity</i>, and <i>hue</i>. If a piece of paper is +painted vermilion and placed across the red end of the spectrum, +it will be seen to be deficient in purity. Emerald-green and +ultramarine blue papers, when compared with their respective +sections of the spectrum, are found to be similarly defective. By +mixing white light with the colours of the spectrum they may +be so adulterated as to correspond with, or match, those obtained +by the use of pigments. Artificial colours are never perfectly +pure—they always contain some measure of foreign element, +which can only be correctly determined by bringing them in +contact with the colours of the spectrum. The second constant, +<i>Luminosity</i> or <i>Intensity</i>, depends on the degree of light a colour +reflects. Yellow, orange, and red represent the most luminous, +and green, blue, and violet the least luminous end of the +spectrum. It will be evident that it is possible to have two +or more colours of the same degree of purity, but of different +degrees of brightness. Two scarlets might both contain the +same proportionate quantities of colour and of white light, +and yet be dissimilar, simply on account of one being more +intense in hue than the other. To match the two colours, +the more luminous one would require to be exposed to a dull +light, or the less luminous to a bright light. The third constant, +<i>Hue</i>, is that special property which is caused by a definite refrangibility +of light, producing the colour proper. Green and +red may be exactly of the same purity and brightness, but they +are different in hue, each being produced by a distinct refrangibility +of rays.</p> + +<p>12. <i>Temperature of Colours.</i>—The temperature of the +spectrum colours is not uniform. It augments from violet to +red. Herschel, by exposing thermometers to the several tints +of the solar spectrum, determined the temperature of each colour, +and proved that, proceeding from the most refracted or violet +end of the spectrum to the least refracted or red end, there is a +successive increase of heat. Besides luminous rays, the sun emits +a mass of invisible but potent calorific rays. Herschel, pushing +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_18">[Pg 18]</span> +his thermometers beyond the visible red and violet rays, discovered +the presence in the spectrum of ultra red rays of intense +heat, and ultra violet rays of a less heat. The solar spectrum +may therefore be described as consisting of three distinct +sections: First, of the ultra and invisible red rays; second, +of the luminous rays, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and +violet; and third, of the ultra and invisible violet rays. Though +it is thus evident that each spectral colour has a different +temperature, yet it cannot be assumed on this basis that a red +fabric will possess a greater degree of heat than a blue fabric +composed of the same materials; because all rays penetrating a +coloured body are not luminous, and yet, whether luminous or +non-luminous, they possess properties of heat. Were the rays +absorbed by a coloured surface only luminous, then it would be +possible, by estimating the measure of absorption, to determine +the colour temperature. But the bulk of radiation from any +luminous body consists of invisible calorific rays, regarding +which colour teaches absolutely nothing. A fact that has to be +taken into consideration is, that a body may be highly susceptible +to one class of rays, but insusceptible to other classes. As it +is generally known that black garments are more effective +retainers of solar heat than white garments, it may be pointed +out why this is the case. White clothes absorb the invisible rays, +but reflect the luminous rays which constitute solar light. +Black or dark clothes, on the other hand, not only retain the +dark rays which penetrate them, but also the visible rays; and +hence they are that degree warmer than white fabrics of the +same structure and material, as the difference in the influx of +temperature due to the absorption of luminous as well as invisible +rays. Tyndall explains that if a white cloth were spread +over the snow, it would even act as a shield to the latter instead +of assisting it to thaw. Snow, which is ice in a powdered form, +absorbs the dark rays with greater avidity than a white fabric; +and, as both the particles of snow and the threads of the texture +reflect the luminous rays poured upon them, the snow would melt +sooner without the cloth than with it. Indeed it would be found +that in a short time the cloth would occupy quite a prominence—the +snow not covered by it thawing more rapidly than that +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_19">[Pg 19]</span> +over which it is spread. Should a black fabric of similar +material be next placed on sunned snow, it would produce the +very opposite results. Absorbing the luminous as well as the +dark rays, it retains more of the sun’s heat than the snow, +which rapidly melts under it; while the surrounding and uncovered +snow remains comparatively unthawed and icy. Both +the white texture and the snow are powerless as regards the +luminous rays emitted by the sun; the myriads of fibres composing +the former receive no warmth from them, nor can the ice-like +atoms of the latter be melted by them. They, in a word, +can only be changed by the dark rays. As to the black-surfaced +texture, there are different conditions to be taken into +account. It is both an absorbent of the invisible and of the +luminous rays, consequently dark materials not only attract but +retain more of the sun’s heat than light materials. More than +this cannot be stated with certainty about the warmth-yielding +qualities of woven textures of various colours.</p> + +<div class="p2 footnotes"><h4>FOOTNOTES:</h4> + +<div class="blockquot"> +<div class="footnote"><p class="unindent"><a id="Footnote_1_1" href="#FNanchor_1_1" class="label">[1]</a> Mercerized cottons possess some of the qualities of silk colourings.</p></div> + +<div class="footnote"><p class="unindent"><a id="Footnote_2_2" href="#FNanchor_2_2" class="label">[2]</a> “Colour”: <i>Chambers’ Encyclopædia</i>.</p></div> + +<div class="footnote"><p class="unindent"><a id="Footnote_3_3" href="#FNanchor_3_3" class="label">[3]</a> Abney’s <i>Colour Measurement and Mixture</i>.</p></div> + +<div class="footnote"><p class="unindent"><a id="Footnote_4_4" href="#FNanchor_4_4" class="label">[4]</a> Wilkinson’s <i>Harmonious Colouring</i>.</p></div> + +<div class="footnote"><p class="unindent"><a id="Footnote_5_5" href="#FNanchor_5_5" class="label">[5]</a> Paterson’s <i>Science of Colour Mixing</i>.</p></div> + +<div class="footnote"><p class="unindent"><a id="Footnote_6_6" href="#FNanchor_6_6" class="label">[6]</a> Atkinson’s <i>Ganot’s Physics</i>; Tyndall’s <i>Fragments of Science</i>.</p></div></div> +</div> +<hr class="chap x-ebookmaker-drop"> + + +<div class="chapter"> +<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_20">[Pg 20]</span></p> + <h2 class="nobreak" id="CHAPTER_II"> + CHAPTER <abbr title="Two">II.</abbr> + </h2> + <h3> + ATTRIBUTES OF COLOURS. + </h3> +</div> + +<div class="blockquot"> +<p>13.

More is requisite than +a mere acquaintance with the technical details which lie at the +basis of the construction of useful and decorative fabrics: this +knowledge must be supplemented by practice and training in +the blending of pure and other shades, and in the origination +of novel schemes of colouring. Exact knowledge of the quality +and application of colours, and of the laws which determine +harmony of colouring, is indispensable to the successful textile +designer. The pattern originator must display in his work a +reliable conception of the province of colour in woven style; +this is as essential as it is to the manufacturer to have regard +to the chemical composition, physical structure, and clothing +qualities of the materials used. As in blending wools and other +fibres, the nature and properties of each are taken into account, +so in colouring woven manufactures, the attributes of the several +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_21">[Pg 21]</span> +shades and the method of arrangement require to be carefully +considered.</p> + +<p>14. <i>Qualifications of the Textile Colourist.</i>—One of the +primary qualifications of a colourist is natural aptitude for his +work. To “feel” or appreciate harmony and contrast of colour, +the eye of the observer must convey to the mind an accurate +impression of the <i lang="fr">ensemble</i> of shades visible. Two things are +requisite—intuitive and acquired taste for colouring, combined +with practice in textile designing. Yet these are insufficient. +They may enable one to judge of the purity of colours, or of +the degree in tone between two or more hues; but this faculty +for matching of colours, or of colour discrimination, however +acute, does not constitute that sense for harmony of colouring +which would make it a transgression of nature for a designer +to originate incongruous colour compounds. Another quality is +needful. It may be said to be practically, if not wholly, an +intuitive talent, for it may be displayed in the work of those +who possess but slender knowledge of the laws and theories of +colour. There must be taste or genius for colouring. Such is +the perfection in which some designers have this natural faculty +for colour blending and application, that they are a law in themselves. +Natural talent is the source of inspiration. This faculty +is invariably the better for culture. As a capacity for music +may be developed by training, so a power for colouring may be +augmented by studying harmony and contrast, and the general +principles of the science as they relate to the development of +patterns in the loom; consequently, though culture may not +create that acuteness of conception exercised by those who have +an intuitive bent for harmonious assortments of hues, yet it may +result in producing a passable, if not a proficient colourist, and +is, moreover, calculated to direct even the naturally talented to +a judicious selection and use of materials.</p> + +<p>15. <i>Functions of Pure Colours in Design.</i>—Before treating +of the attributes of the primary and secondary colours, namely, +red, blue, yellow, green, orange, and purple, it may be useful to +allude to the application of these colours to the various types of +woven decoration. Some designers so rarely use such hues, +unless tempered with either white or black, that they seem to +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_22">[Pg 22]</span> +entertain an idea that they can only be made to yield strong +and harsh contrasts. Certainly this is likely to occur if they +are not combined with due regard to intensity and quantity of +hue, the methods of distributing the several colours, and the +relative effect they have on each other in the woven fabric. +Bright colours should always be applied to textures for the +purpose of imparting tone and character of pattern. Though, +generally, they do not form the groundwork of the style, yet +they should give additional lustre to the design. What such +hues are in decorative and pictorial art, they are also in loom +productions when skilfully employed.</p> + +<p>Showy styles in which the primaries or bright colours are +present, result more from the system of combination practised +than from excessive brightness. The Indian shawl—or the +Paisley imitation—and the Turkey or Persian carpet, not infrequently +consist of designs composed of the most brilliant +shades producible in the dye vat. In the former, in addition to +a play on certain figures, which are generally unique in arrangement +and ingeniously grouped, there is a depth and fulness of +tinting that seems to possess all but a permanent freshness. As +to the Eastern carpet, it contains a large diversity of colours, +and mostly of a bright tone, but still the general effect is +pleasing and cheerful. To what are the congruity of tone and +richness of colouring due in these textures? This law is +observed in their composition: the quantity of each colour used, +depends entirely on the position it occupies in the pattern and +on its intensity and quality; while the several shades are so +blended that when the carpet or shawl is viewed in its entirety +the whole is harmonious in result. This is the general effect +sought after in tweeds and all classes of fancy fabrics. If scarlet, +blue, green, crimson, or orange were applied to a woven design,—though +decidedly stronger in hue than the shades forming +the bulk of the fabric—while tingeing the pattern with a freshness +of tone, they should not be allowed to unduly attract the +eye. The use of twist yarns very largely facilitates the production +of congruous combinations, in which bright colours play a +prominent part in the composition of the pattern. By employing +these threads, the colours may be broken up, in which form they +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_23">[Pg 23]</span> +do not produce that continuity of effect which necessarily results +from the use of self-coloured yarns. Success in effective colouring +with pure hues lies, however, in a proper distribution of the +shades combined, incongruity of effect being as largely due to +defective balancing of colour as to injudicious and distasteful +combinations; in a word, there is as much dependent on the +arrangement, as on the selection and blending of shades in pattern +origination.</p> + +<!--add id=plate03 to below if above is deleted--> +<figure class="figcenter illowp44a" id="plate03" style="max-width: 151.5em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/plate03.jpg" alt="Primary, secondary and tertiary colours"> + <figcaption style="color:blue"> + <p class="center">Plate <abbr title="Three">III</abbr><br> + <span class="allsmcap">PRIMARY, SECONDARY AND TERTIARY COLOURS</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>In addition to thus acting as the brightening elements in +woven design, these colours are also used in some classes of +textures as ground shades. For instance, they are the principal +colours employed in dress fabrics of a Scotch tartan class, certain +kinds of shawls, silk neckties, handkerchiefs, and wraps; but +generally, in worsted and woollen textures they are used +sparingly, and for giving lustre to a sombre mixture of +colours. Pure colours have therefore two distinct functions in +textile patterns: first, they constitute a kind of supplementary +colouring which imparts lustre and intensity of hue to the style +to which they are applied; and, second, they may be the +principal colours comprised in the design.</p> + +<p>16. <i>Red: its Characteristics.</i>—Red (<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 1, <a href="#plate03">Plate <abbr title="Three">III.</abbr></a>) is designated +a simple or primary colour in both the light and +pigment theories of colouring. Of all hues it is the most showy, +brilliant, and gorgeous. Intense red is so powerful that when +used in large quantities it neutralizes the effect of adjacent hues. +On this account, its distribution in textiles should always be +accomplished in accordance with the depth of the other colours +entering into the style; that is to say, its intensity, as well as +its quantity, must be varied in the same proportion as the general +colouring of the pattern is diminished or augmented in tone. +An otherwise satisfactorily coloured pattern may be destroyed +by using a red too potent in hue, or by using this colour too +profusely. Yet red is decidedly one of the most useful colours +at the command of the decorative designer and the textile +producer. Whether employed as a pure, or as an adulterated +colour, it is of extensive utility in textile designing. When +judiciously applied, it adds brightness and cheerfulness to woven +effects. Its true sphere in textiles is to impart freshness. Red +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_24">[Pg 24]</span> +in these compositions is the brightening or toning hue. In +applying red tints to worsted and woollen fabrics, they should +seldom occur in patches or in continuous lines of a check arrangement, +but they should be more or less intermittent in effect.⁠<a id="FNanchor_7_7" href="#Footnote_7_7" class="fnanchor">[7]</a> +It should be borne in mind that in these fabrics it is not +loudness or showiness, but neatness of style, that is sought +after, yet the quality of brightness must not be lacking. In +the form of twist yarns, reds and scarlets may be made to +produce exactly the general toning required. This mode of +applying this colour is particularly well adapted to textures +of a cheviot and tweed description. Worsteds require different +treatment. One method of introducing reds into these fabrics +consists in using silk yarns, and simply bringing them on to +the surface to form a bright spot or minute line of colour. +In silk, cotton, and some kinds of linen textures, this primary +is used in larger quantities, and more liberally displayed in +patterns composed of these materials, than in the ordinary run +of woollen and worsted fabrics.</p> + +<p>Being such a potent and bright colour, it is of utility in +the blending process of manufacturing, when several shades of +materials are combined to produce a mixture yarn. Some +mixtures or blends of this class contain scarlet wools, which, in +whatever form they occur give tone and quality to the combination +of which they form a part. A variety of tints and +shades results from mixing red in different quantities with +black or white, and also an extensive range of hues from combining +it with other colours. Still, pure red is not so +liberally used in textile work as its derivatives: thus, it +unites with yellow and blue in the production of orange and +purple. Should a small quantity of yellow be added to red, it +gives scarlet, while the addition of a small quantity of blue +produces crimson. The richness and luminosity of the scarlet +are determined by the proportion of yellow added; and the +depth of the crimson by the amount of blue entering the +mixtures. Both in scarlets and crimsons, a considerable diversity +of hues is obtainable. Before either of these colours is produced, +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_25">[Pg 25]</span> +red undergoes a series of gradations of hue. In the rose, +there is displayed to perfection the various modifications in tint +and shade of which this colour is susceptive. Scarlets, crimsons, +maroons, russets, and browns are all hues employed by the +weaver that obtain their prevailing tint from this primary.</p> + +<p>17. <i>Methods of Modifying Colours.</i>—All pure colours, such as +red, blue, yellow, orange, green, and purple, may be subjected to +three kinds of modification: first, they may be darkened in +<i>tone</i>; second, lightened in <i>tint</i>; and third, changed in hue. +If, for example, black is mixed with red in various proportions, +it produces <i>tones</i> or <i>shades</i> of this colour, while an admixture of +white with red yields different <i>tints</i> of red. To alter the hue, it is +necessary to blend it with some other colour, such as blue, when +various shades of full-toned crimsons result. In blending, and +also in the arrangement of colours in the warp and weft of the +woven fabric, the phenomena underlying the changes producible +in the tone and tint of a colour have to be taken into consideration. +Black and red wools when scribbled together give a dark +brown or reddish-brown mixture, according to the quantities +of the respective shades entering into the combination; on the +other hand, if white and red wools are blended, a mixture +of a pinkish character is obtained. Hence it is clear that the +same principles which determine the alteration in the shade, +tint, or hue of a colour when pigments are combined, also regulate +the results due to mixing several colours of textile fibres.</p> + +<p>Strictly speaking, white and black cannot be designated +colours, being merely representative of the principles of light +and darkness, and acting, in the multiplication of shades and +tints, as the great modifiers of colour. Such is their province in +the <i lang="fr">rôle</i> of colour production. In design, they are indispensable +in mellowing certain combinations of hues, and in giving +precision and clearness to specific sections of a pattern. As +ground shades they are also useful. Light colours appear +bright and distinct on black surfaces; while deep colours, +such as blues, purples, and reds, appear intense and clear on +white materials. So that by a proper use of these shades it is +possible, in the first place, by the process of mixing them with +bright colours, to produce a variety of hues; and, in the +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_26">[Pg 26]</span> +second place, by introducing them into the warp and weft of +the pattern, to impart smartness and lustre to the colours +employed.</p> + +<p>18. <i>Derivatives of Red: their Qualities and their Province +in Textiles.</i>—By the derivatives of a colour, are signified those +shades and tints which result from mixing it with various +quantities of white or black. Those obtained from red are both +numerous and important, being specially useful in the production +of woven effects. They comprise both ground and fancy hues. +First, in the category of the derivatives of this primary, are +those shades produced by toning it with black. A few typical +specimens of these are given in <abbr title="Numbers">Nos.</abbr> 1, 2, and 3, <a href="#plate04">Plate <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a> The +brightest shade (<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 3) is compounded of three parts of red and of +one part of black; the medium shade (<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 2) of equal quantities +of red and black; while in the dark brown (<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 1) black preponderates, +the proportions being one part of red to three parts +of black. Such shades of brown may be used as ground colours, +but the two latter are the most appropriate for this purpose. +Shade 3 is, however, frequently employed with good results +in dress fabrics for the foundation of the texture. Some excellent +colourings ensue from their combination. The two extremes—Shades +1 and 3—when employed in the same style give a softly +toned pattern. A less pronounced contrast ensues from a compound +of Shades 1 and 2, or Shades 2 and 3. In combinations +of this kind, there should usually be a larger quantity +of one colour element than another. Another method of combining +these shades consists in introducing the three into one +pattern. For example, if twelve threads of Shade 1, eight +threads of Shade 2, and four threads of Shade 3, were woven +together and checked over in the weft by a similar arrangement +of yarns, a neat design would be obtained. It might +be changed by taking four threads of Shade 1 instead of +twelve, and twelve threads of Shade 3 instead of four. In the +former style the dark brown would preponderate, but in the +latter the light brown, the quantity of the medium hue being +the same in each instance. These illustrations demonstrate +the utility of these shades and the systems on which they +are amalgamated in pattern construction.</p> + +<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_27">[Pg 27]</span> +The tints <abbr title="Numbers">Nos.</abbr> 4, 5, and 6, on <a href="#plate04">Plate <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a>, are characterized +by brilliance and intensity of tone, making them adapted +for imparting lustre and richness to design. Like the colour +from which they obtain their specific tint, they are ostentatious +and potent in effect. While the shades given in <abbr title="Numbers">Nos.</abbr> 1, 2, and +3 are all darker in tone than the original red, these tints are +lighter on account of the entrance of white into their composition. +Thus they are made up as follows:⁠—</p> + +<p class="indent5 unindent"> +Tint 4, <a href="#plate04">Plate <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a>—1 part of red and 3 parts of white.<br> +Tint 5,   „   „  —2 parts of red and 2 parts of white.<br> +Tint 6,   „   „  —3 parts of red and 1 part of white. +</p> + +<p>Bright tints of this kind are extensively used in figured +weaving, as in the manufacture of vestings, silk neckties, dress +fabrics, and trimmings.

Amongst the +varieties of twists which can be produced by combining two or +more of these shades and tints of red, the following are selected +as suggestive illustrations:⁠—</p> + +<p class="hangwide"> I.—One thread of Shade 1 twisted with one thread of Tint +4, <a href="#plate04">Plate <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a></p> + +<p class="hangwide"> <abbr title="Two">II.</abbr>—One thread of Shade 1 twisted with one thread of Tint +6, <a href="#plate04">Plate <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a></p> + +<p class="hangwide">III.—One thread of Shade 2 twisted with one thread of Tint +5, <a href="#plate04">Plate <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a></p> + +<p class="hangwide">IV.—One thread of Shade 3 twisted with one thread of Tint +4, <a href="#plate04">Plate <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a></p> + +<p class="hangwide"> V.—One thread of Shade 1; one thread of Shade 3; and one +thread of Tint 4, <a href="#plate04">Plate <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a>, twisted together.</p> + +<p>Each of these compound yarns, in worsted, woollen, or cotton +materials, is capable, when judiciously applied, of contributing to +the quality of woven pattern.</p> + +<p>Another section of manufacturing in which these derivatives +are employed is in the blending process, or in the production +of fancy mixture yarns.</p> + +<p>19. <i>Blue: its Properties and Uses.</i>—Blue (<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 2, <a href="#plate03">Plate <abbr title="Three">III.</abbr></a>) is +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_28">[Pg 28]</span> +one of the most valuable colours used by textile designers. In +dark shades it is utilized for the ground of patterns; in medium +shades it is employed for mellowing and toning purposes; while +bright blues convey freshness and force of colouring; so that +this primary has three distinct functions in textile designing. +In each of these, it will be indicated what its properties are +as a colour, and the relation it sustains to other shades with +which it may be combined.</p> + +<p>Unlike red, which is decidedly a warm colour, the quality +of blue is cold and retiring: this distinguishes it from yellow, +orange, and red, which produce a sensation of warmth. +Resembling violet and purple, it is indistinct and neutral in +a declining light, but strong and brilliant in a bright light; +hence, when applied to light grounds, it is not only pronounced +in hue, but is quite distinct from other shades, while on a dark +or black surface it is both mellow and lustrous in effect.</p> + +<p>Its property of “coldness” renders it a useful shade for subduing +the redness of tone of some colourings; for it in some +degree neutralizes the warm hue of the browns, maroons, russets, +or other shades forming the pattern in which red is prevalent. +This does not, however, indicate that red and blue harmonize; +on the contrary, whenever these two colours are associated in +large quantities, the resultant composition is somewhat incongruous; +but that when combined with browns and russet +olives, or shades in which the red tint is assimilated by the +quantity of black they contain, blue can be made to yield +excellent coloured effects. Pure blue, like pure red, is not so +largely used as its derivatives, still it has a place in textile +designing. This is principally as a fancy yarn, when it gives +freshness and bloom to the pattern. It is also employed as a +ground colour in the manufacture of fine silk fabrics, and as the +figuring colour in certain makes of fancy worsteds.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp48" id="plate04" style="max-width: 28.1875em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/plate04.jpg" alt="Tones and tint of primaries"> + <figcaption style="color: blue;"> + <p>Plate <abbr title="four">IV</abbr><br> + <span class="allsmcap">TONES AND TINTS OF THE “PRIMARIES”</span></p> +<table class="smaller"> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">1. 2. 3.</td> +<td class="tdl">Tones of Red</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">4. 5. 6.</td> +<td class="tdl">Tints of Red</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">7. 8. 9.</td> +<td class="tdl">Tones of Blue</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdl">10. 11. 12.</td> +<td class="tdl">Tints of Blue</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdl">13. 14. 15.</td> +<td class="tdl">Tones of Yellow</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdl">16. 17. 18.</td> +<td class="tdl">Tints of Yellow</td> +</tr> +</table> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>20. <i>Derivatives of Blue and their Application to Woven +Textures.</i>—If blue is mixed with black, shades of an indigo +character result; but, if mixed with white, peacock blues, +lavenders, and pale blues are formed. Some few examples in +both these types of derivatives may be considered. From the +series of dark or shaded blues three examples have been selected, +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_29">[Pg 29]</span> +namely, those in <abbr title="Numbers">Nos.</abbr> 7, 8, and 9, <a href="#plate04">Plate <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a> The first consists of +one part blue and three parts black; the second (<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 8) of two +parts blue and two parts black; and the third (<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 9) of three +parts blue and one part black. Shade 1 (indigo) is a useful colour +for piece-dye goods, as well as for the grounds of fancy fabrics. +By studying this method of mixing, it will be observed how a +pure and intense colour may be gradually darkened in shade, or—if +white is added—gradually lightened in tint, until it closely +resembles black or white, as the case may be. This system of +varying the tone of a colour makes it feasible, by a proper assortment +of hues, to produce stripes or checks in light or dark shades. +Take, for example, the three blues given in <abbr title="Numbers">Nos.</abbr> 7, 8, and 9 on +this Plate. If these are put together thus: eight threads of +Shade 7, eight threads of Shade 8, and eight threads of Shade 9, +a shaded blue check will result, which in worsted, woollen, +or cotton yarns gives a satisfactory pattern. Let the warp +thus arranged be crossed with similar quantities of the respective +shades, and checks of the several blues will be formed in the +fabric. This plan of colouring produces checks of equal proportions +of the different shades; but, if needful, these might be +easily got in various dimensions, say, for instance, the darkest +check about three-quarters of an inch in size, and the remaining +two checks half an inch.</p> + +<p>A few of the principal tints of blue, got by mixing this primary +with white, in the same proportions as the shades just described +were produced by mixing it with black, are <abbr title="Numbers">Nos.</abbr> 10, 11, and +12, <a href="#plate04">Plate <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a> The white has given them a softened and +mellowed tone, having neutralized that forcible and striking +attribute which characterizes pure blue. On comparing them +with the original colour from which they result (<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 2, <a href="#plate03">Plate <abbr title="Three">III.</abbr></a>), +the degree to which white subdues and mellows bright hues +with which it is blended will be evident. Tints of this class +are used in various ways in designing. Some styles in +silk handkerchiefs are producible by the exact depth of +hues seen in the illustration—these weights of colours forming +congruous and evenly-balanced patterns. They are also +largely employed in cotton textures. One example of this type +of combination is given in <a href="#plate07a"><abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 1, on Plate <abbr title="Seven">VII.</abbr></a> This is a sketch +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_30">[Pg 30]</span> +of a fabric made of cotton yarns. The warp is light blue—Tint +10, <a href="#plate04">Plate <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a>—and the weft a deeper blue, or Tint 12. The +neatness of this colouring is due to the soft contrast between +the tints of the warp and weft yarns.</p> + +<p>21. <i>Shades and Tints of Blue mixed with Shaded and Tinted +Red and Yellow.</i>—In the styles in which blue is employed for +ground purposes, indigo shades are invariably used. Blue, however, +is not a foundation colour that admits of much diversity +of tinting. To succeed in its application to the grounds +of patterns, a good range of browns, olives, and greys is +important. With shades of the olive class it gives the most +marked contrasts. This is due to yellow being the prevailing +tint of this compound hue. But it also mingles harmoniously +with certain tints of grey and brown. Patterns in which these +shades are arranged as in Tables <a href="#Table_5"><abbr title="Five">V.</abbr></a> and <a href="#Table_6"><abbr title="Six">VI.</abbr></a>, in woollen, +worsted, cotton, or silk yarns, illustrate the methods of combining +blue effectively with different shades and tints of red and +yellow. In <a href="#Table_1">Table <abbr title="One">I.</abbr></a> the combinations of shades are included; +but in <a href="#Table_2">Table <abbr title="Two">II.</abbr></a> will be found the tints of red, blue, and yellow. +The colours are given in groups of six threads, and would, +providing the arrangements appended were carried out in the +weft, produce a series of clearly developed check effects.</p> + +<p class="p2 center"><a id="Table_5"></a> +<span class="smcap">Table <abbr title="Five">V.</abbr></span><br> +<br> +<span class="smcap">Compounds of Shades or Tones of Colour.</span> +</p> + +<p> +<i>(a) Shades of Blue and Red (<a href="#plate04">Plate <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a>).</i> +</p> + +<p class="center"> +<abbr title="Example">Ex.</abbr> 1.

Unless +this rule is adhered to, the arrangement adopted will give incongruous +results. Only a certain depth of blue harmonizes with +a corresponding depth of brown and olive; if one predominates +over the other, the colouring becomes deficient and +displeasing to the eye. For example, if Shades 1 and 9 and +Tints 4 and 12 were blended, the result would not be so mellow +as if Shades 1 and 7 and Tints 4 and 10, as in the Tables, +were combined. The reason for this is that, in the first instance, +a shade of red in which black preponderates is used with a +shade of blue in which blue preponderates; while, in the second +instance, a tint of red in which white preponderates is associated +with a tint of blue in which blue preponderates; whereas, to +produce a perfect balance of colour—that is, providing the +quantities of the respective colours are equal—it is necessary for +the shades or tints combined to contain exactly the same quantities +of black and white, as in the combinations of Shades 1 and 7, +and Tints 4 and 10 of <a href="#plate04">Plate <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a></p> + +<p>In no combination given in Tables <a href="#Table_5"><abbr title="Five">V.</abbr></a> and <a href="#Table_6"><abbr title="Six">VI.</abbr></a> is there a lack +of harmony; indeed, considering the principle on which they +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_33">[Pg 33]</span> +have been obtained, this is almost impossible. Thus, take <abbr title="Example">Ex.</abbr> 1 +in <a href="#Table_5">Table <abbr title="Five">V.</abbr></a> Here, dark shades of blue and brown are associated. +In both colours black preponderates; that is to say, the former +is composed of three parts of black and two parts of blue, and the +latter of three parts of black and two parts of red. Providing +the primaries blue and red (<abbr title="Numbers">Nos.</abbr> 1 and 2, <a href="#plate03">Plate <abbr title="Three">III.</abbr></a>) harmonize, +these shades, which are their derivatives, will also mix well +together. A test to which they can be submitted is to view +them side by side. If slips of these shades are thus combined, +they do not appear incongruous and harsh in tone, but possess +a soft and mellow aspect, and in this consists the true characteristics +of harmonious colourings. As the tints are worked out +on the same system as the shades, they form useful compounds. +In order that this important element of congruous colour effects +may be clearly understood, let <abbr title="Example">Ex.</abbr> 1 of <a href="#Table_6">Table <abbr title="Six">VI.</abbr></a> be also briefly +examined. Such a combination can only yield an agreeable +pattern. Whether these tints are blended in the wool or in +the yarn, the resulting mixture is satisfactory. This arises +from the weight or depth of colour of the respective tints +being identical; in other terms, the intensity of the tinted red +is precisely the same as that of the tinted blue. In dress +stuffs, tennis flannels, fabrics for trimmings, silks, and extreme +fancy textures, this blend of tints is invariably pleasing. +Equally harmonious results may be arrived at by combining +tinted red (<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 4) with tinted yellow (<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 16), or tinted blue +(<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 10, <a href="#plate04">Plate <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a>) with tinted yellow. In each of these +compounds, delicacy of tint and mellowness of hue are the +prevailing qualities.</p> + +<p>23. <i>Uses of Blue in Twist Yarns.</i>—Having now treated of +blue as a ground colour, and also as a shade for blending with +other hues to tone down a style or subdue its coloured aspect, +it only remains to indicate its utility as a colour for twist yarns. +It is a valuable shade for this purpose. As it is a bright but not +a showy colour, it is particularly suitable for fancy two- or three-ply +yarns. Twists in which red, yellow, or orange are used, have +a tendency to overpower the general colouring of the pattern in +which they appear, but this is not the case in fancy yarns in +which blue is the principal colour. Such twists, while imparting +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_34">[Pg 34]</span> +lustre and freshness to the design, in no wise detract +from its beauty of colouring, though that may be of a comparatively +subdued character. The following are a few examples +in two-ply yarns in which blue threads are employed: +black and blue; white and blue; brown (<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 1) and tinted blue +(<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 10); dark blue (<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 7) and tinted red (<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 4); blue and +yellow; dark blue and shaded red (<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 3, <a href="#plate04">Plate <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a>); and +medium blue and white.</p> + +<p>24. <i>Points in the Application of Blue and Red to Textiles +Summarized.</i>—The analyses which have been made of the use +of blue and red in woven designs, have demonstrated that, whenever +primary colours are applied to textile fabrics in their purity +and natural intensity, it is in comparatively small quantities. +Brilliance of hue causes the application of primaries in large +patches to textile surfaces to be undesirable. In dress fabrics, +bright blue, red, and yellow have an important place. Mantlings, +shawls, wraps, and travelling rugs also provide scope for a +liberal use of these shades; but in treating designs with colour +for fabrics of the coating and trousering class, subdued and +indefinite shades prove the most useful. Red and blue are +valuable to impart tone and newness of character to the style. +The groundwork of the pattern should first have attention—the +intensity and strength of the bright colours depending on the +mode of application. Should the ground colouring of a pattern +be strong and harsh, the addition of green or blue will, in some +cases, give it a mellow quality; or should it lack brightness, then +red, orange, or yellow, if applied in small quantities and properly +distributed, will relieve the heaviness of the colouring and impart +the requisite freshness of aspect. Success in the use of pure +colours is determined by the quantities in which they occur, and +by the nature of the shades with which they are associated. +Bright red, however sparingly employed, if applied to a mixture +of brown or russet shades, cannot but form an incongruous +colouring; but if applied to an assortment of shades in which +soft-tinted blues and greens are conspicuous, both harmony and +contrast of composition would result.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp60" id="plate05" style="max-width: 43.75em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/plate05.jpg" alt="Plaid with yellow"> + <figcaption style="color: blue;"> + <p>Plate <abbr title="Five">V</abbr><br> + <span class="allsmcap">PLAID IN WHICH YELLOW IS THE BRIGHT OVER CHECKING COLOUR</span></p> + <p class="p0 xxs">(5013)</p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>25. <i>Attributes of Yellow.</i>—This colour (<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 3, <a href="#plate03">Plate <abbr title="Three">III.</abbr></a>) is +generally understood to be emblematical of purity and brightness. +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_35">[Pg 35]</span> +It is the most luminous tint in the spectrum. Purple is its complementary +and contrasting hue. Intense yellow—rich, bright, +and cheerful—has the same relation to light or whiteness as blue +has to darkness. It lacks the lustrous quality of red and the +retiring, mellow characteristic of blue, but possesses vividness +and lustre. Luminosity and brilliance of hue limit its application +to textile design; yet it has a sphere which no other +colour can occupy. Thus, in patterns in which white yarns +and light or delicate shades are employed, it is one of the +most important fancy colours it is possible to introduce into +the fabric. Mingled with such shades, it loses a degree of +that prominence and individuality of tint which characterizes +it when applied to patterns possessing dark and sombre +grounds.</p> + +<p>Another quality of this primary is vividness—no colour being +comparable with it in this sense. Orange possesses this attribute, +but not so largely as positive yellow. Its characteristic freshness, +but comparative lightness of hue, imparts to it a clear and +decided tone on black or dark surfaces. Hence it is found +that when yellow is blended with light and medium greys +and lavenders, its property of lustre suffers in intensity; +whereas, if it is applied to dark blue, dark brown, or black +materials, its vivid attributes are forcibly distinguished. When +these modifications, which this and other bright colours undergo +according to the qualities of the several shades with which they +may be combined, are clearly understood, the possible effect of +their application to any pre-arranged scheme of ground colours +may be estimated. Obviously there are three factors to be carefully +considered when employing primary hues: first, the nature +of the contrast resultant when the colours are placed on light +materials; second, on medium-toned grounds; and third, on +textures composed of dark yarns. Yellow is somewhat lessened +in distinctiveness on the first, but improves in intensity on the +dark grounds, being only slightly changed when arranged side +by side with shades of a medium depth.</p> + +<p>26. <i>Province of Yellow in Woven Fabrics.</i>—Pure yellow is +but sparingly used in textile designing. In tweeds and worsteds +it is combined, to a limited extent, with other shades in the construction +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_36">[Pg 36]</span> +of fancy twist and mixture yarns. It is the principal +colour in the following two- and three-ply yarns: black and +yellow; blue and yellow; indigo blue and yellow; dark grey and +yellow; black, purple, and yellow; black, medium grey, and +yellow; and black, red, and yellow. When used in this form +it may add lustre and freshness to an otherwise sombre +style. It possibly gives the best results in tweeds, where the +fibrous nature of the texture helps to minimize its excessive +brightness. Yellow is also applied as a self-coloured yarn to +certain styles of check patterns for woollen travelling mauds, +shawls, and rugs. An example of a plaid pattern of this description +is given in <a href="#plate05">Plate <abbr title="Five">V.</abbr></a> There are contrasts of dark green and +red, dark green and blue, black and red, and also yellow as an +intermediate colour between green and red, and as a checking +colour on the black. Yellow is thus used for two purposes: +first, as a divisible hue; contrasting with the green, and harmonizing +with the red; and second, as the strongest contrast possible +on the black. It gives what may be termed the chief checking +lines to the plaid, and produces freshness and lustre in the +style. These lines are of sufficient width considering the brightness +and vividness of the colour, which are two qualities to be +taken into account when using colours in combination with +other bright shades.</p> + +<p>27. <i>Derivatives of Yellow.</i>—These are both numerous and +important. When blended with blue, as previously explained, +hues of green are formed, comprising myrtle green, sea +green, emerald green, and grass green, all of which vary in +tint according to the intensity of the bluish and yellowish +elements entering into their composition. Yellow with red, on +the other hand, yields an assortment of scarlet and orange hues. +Yellow with white gives delicate tints of a straw, lemon, and +primrose class (see <abbr title="Numbers">Nos.</abbr> 16, 17, and 18, <a href="#plate04">Plate <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a>); while with +black it forms many shades of an olive character, such as +those supplied in <abbr title="Numbers">Nos.</abbr> 13, 14, and 15 on the same Plate. If +it should be mixed with grey, it produces various tints of drab; +so that this primary is a very useful colour for blending with +other hues in the production of compound shades.</p> + +<p>28. <i>Secondary Colours.</i>—The attributes and functions of the +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_37">[Pg 37]</span> +primaries in textiles have now been defined. The secondaries—colours +resulting from mixing two primaries—possess quite +distinct properties from the hues of which they are composed. +Compared with the primaries red, yellow, and blue, they lack +intensity and strength of hue. Still, they are potent colours, +and, as a consequence, only produce harmonious combinations +when judiciously employed. As a rule, the stronger and the +more intense a colour, the greater the skill required in its +application to pattern or design. To use the secondaries in +large quantities with success, some practice in textile colouring +is essential.</p> + +<p>Of these compound shades, orange is the most ostentatious, +being tinged with red; purple possesses depth and fulness of +hue; and green is suggestive of freshness. Each colour is +largely used in woven manufactures, the methods of application +depending on the type of the texture. In silk ribbons +and neckties, they are used as pure colours, and are also +applied to cotton and flannel shirting styles, linen vestings, +and fancy worsted shawls; but when employed in the ordinary +types of woollens and worsteds, they are somewhat subdued by +mixing with white or black, or they may form one of the threads +in a fancy twist yarn. The qualities of each colour will be +considered separately.</p> + +<p>29. <i>Green: its Attributes and Derivatives.</i>—This is a useful +secondary colour. In the Light Theory of Colouring, it is a +primary hue; but it is already understood that, according to the +Pigment Theory, green is not a simple, but a compound colour +resulting from the admixture of the pigment yellow with the +pigment blue. Greens may also be obtained by the same process +in the dye vat. Thus the texture or material may primarily be +treated with the blue colouring matter, such as indigo, and +subsequently with the yellow dye-ware, such as weld or old +fustic.</p> + +<p>In Nature, green is the most extensively distributed colour, +but in the decorative arts, unless modified, it has not a wide +application. As a colour it combines the qualities of its component +hues—blue and yellow—for it is at once fresh, bright, +and cheerful. When associated with the various shades and +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_38">[Pg 38]</span> +tints of red, harmonious and contrasting combinations ensue. +Amongst the shades used in textiles derived from this secondary, +are myrtle greens, olive greens, slate greens, and dark greens. +Colours of this description are useful in textile work.</p> + +<p>The spectrum green is only applied to extreme fancies, and +then chiefly as an extra, spotting, or figuring yarn; in tweeds +and worsteds, however, it forms an appropriately coloured yarn +for twisting with other threads of such shades as will neutralize +a degree of its intensity and lustre. In fact, green is one of +the most useful colours for twisting purposes employed in +textile designing: such twists as black and green, scarlet and +green, and white and green illustrating its utility in the production +of fancy yarns for tweeds.</p> + +<p>Derivatives of green, due to its admixture with black, comprise +a fair diversity of medium and dark shades which are +employed as ground colours, and also for piece-dye textures. +Three examples in such shades are <abbr title="Numbers">Nos.</abbr> 1, 2, and 3, <a href="#plate06">Plate <abbr title="Six">VI.</abbr></a> +In the first, black is the preponderating element, but in the +third, green is the prevailing hue. With the red browns given +in <abbr title="Numbers">Nos.</abbr> 1, 2, and 3 on <a href="#plate04">Plate <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a>, they form perfect contrasts. +The most pleasing combinations are those in which the greenish +derivatives are blended in equal quantities with the reddish +browns as follows: dark green (<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 1, <a href="#plate06">Plate <abbr title="Six">VI.</abbr></a>) with dark +brown (<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 1, <a href="#plate04">Plate <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a>); medium green (<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 2, <a href="#plate06">Plate <abbr title="Six">VI.</abbr></a>) with +medium brown (<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 2, <a href="#plate04">Plate <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a>); and toned green (<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 3, <a href="#plate06">Plate +<abbr title="six">VI.</abbr></a>) with light brown (<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 3, <a href="#plate04">Plate <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a>). An endless variety of +striped and checked patterns in woollen, worsted, and cotton +materials is got by combining these shades on the lines just +indicated. Some excellent ground twists result from combining +dark brown (<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 1, <a href="#plate04">Plate <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a>) and toned green (<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 3, <a href="#plate06">Plate +<abbr title="Six">VI.</abbr></a>); dark green (<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 1, <a href="#plate06">Plate <abbr title="Six">VI.</abbr></a>) and light brown (<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 3, <a href="#plate04">Plate +<abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a>); and medium green (<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 2, <a href="#plate06">Plate <abbr title="Six">VI.</abbr></a>) and medium brown +(<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 2, <a href="#plate04">Plate <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a>).</p> + +<p>30. <i>Tints of Green.</i>—The admixture of green with white results +in the formation of tints of pea-green.

As +the tints of the respective couplets perfectly balance, being of +the exact depth of hue, they constitute mellow and choice +combinations. Though these tints are not extensively employed +in fancy woollen and worsted fabrics, still there are some +classes of these textures in which they are used for ground +purposes. One illustration of this kind is pattern <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 2 on <a href="#plate07b">Plate +VII</a>. The twilled ground of the fabric is a similar tint to +<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 4, <a href="#plate06">Plate <abbr title="Six">VI.</abbr></a>, while the spotting yarns are two-ply, namely, +tan and white, and crimson and white twists. The white +feature of the colouring serves a twofold purpose: first, it +neutralizes and subdues the intensity of the crimson and +tan threads; and, second, it imparts precision to the mottled +figuring.</p> + +<p>31. <i>Orange: its Shades and Tints.</i>—Next to red, orange +(<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 5, <a href="#plate03">Plate <abbr title="Three">III.</abbr></a>) is the most intense, showy, and potent colour. +It is closely allied to both red and yellow, of which hues it +is composed. Orange is more luminous, but less intense than +pure red, and is warmer, but not so bright in hue as yellow. +Its potency of hue causes it to suffer little impoverishment +either in lustre or intensity from juxtaposition with certain +shades. With colours of a reddish or yellowish hue, it undergoes +the most marked degree of modification; with blues and +greens, and also with their derivatives, its quality is not +perceptibly diminished. Whether distributed on dark or light +surfaces, it stands out with lustre and freshness, and hence is +one of the most appropriate colours for imparting brightness, or +for giving to any combination of shades, lacking these qualities, +a rich appearance.</p> + +<p>Shades of orange (<abbr title="Numbers">Nos.</abbr> 7, 8, and 9, <a href="#plate06">Plate <abbr title="Six">VI.</abbr></a>) are designated +brownish olives, possessing warmer attributes than the shades +derived from yellow, but wanting that strength and richness of +hue characterizing the russet browns resulting from mixing red +with black. As ground colours they are of utility to the textile +colourist. With shades of green they form complementary +combinations, as the following examples illustrate:⁠—</p> +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_40">[Pg 40]</span> + +<p class="hangwide">I.

They are useful in making twist +threads, and are also employed, to a considerable extent, in silk +yarns in the manufacture of vestings, spotted textures, neckties, +and fancies. Satisfactory styles result from combining +them with either tints of green or blue.</p> + +<p>32. <i>Purple.</i>—There is no colour comparable with purple +(<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 6, <a href="#plate03">Plate <abbr title="Three">III.</abbr></a>) as regards depth of hue. Its characterizing +qualities are softness, bloom, and richness of tone. It is a +composition of the warm and the cold, and the showy and the +quiet elements of the spectrum, namely, of red and blue.</p> + +<p>It only yields congruous combinations with a limited range of +shades, and these generally belong to the derivatives of yellow. +Purple and pure yellow form a very pronounced contrast—an +example of which obtains in the common pansy. In this flower, +the deep but lustrous tone of the purple opposes the luminous +and pure hue of the yellow. From this natural combination of +these tints, it is possible to learn with what class of colours +purple will form the most effective contrasts. These are shades +in which yellow preponderates, such as tans, light olives, +and olive browns. To give bloom and richness of aspect to +combinations of fawns, olives, and similar shades, purple, in +conjunction with white, may be employed. Some excellent +tapestries, bordered rugs, and travelling mauds are produced +in which this hue is one of the principal colours.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp47" id="plate06" style="max-width: 19.8125em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/plate06.jpg" alt="Tones and tints of secondaries"> + <figcaption style="color: blue;"> + <p>Plate <abbr title="Six">VI</abbr><br> + <span class="allsmcap">TONES AND TINTS OF THE “SECONDARIES”</span><br> + <span class="smaller">1. 2. 3.

Harmony—48. +Principles of Harmony.</p> +</div> + +<p class="unindent">33. <i>Colours Affected by Adjacent Colours.</i>—The intensity, +potency, and hue of a colour may apparently undergo change +by placing it in juxtaposition with other colours. The process +of colour modification has been considered, when it was +indicated in what manner hues are subjective to change in +proportion to the quantity of black, white, or a colour which +forms part of their composition; but the behaviour of colours +when in contact or close together remains to be explained. +Change of hue and tone of colour originated by the laws of +contiguity is both varied and subtle. Trained and practical +colourists realize some difficulty in determining the precise +nature of the alteration, but it is none the less evident. +That the attributes of colours are somewhat modified when +the hues with which they are blended are combined, is an +essential principle of shade compounds. If, for example, a +series of small scarlet spots were woven on black, grey, and +white grounds in succession, the hue of the scarlet, when the +several fabrics were compared, would prove to be different +in appearance in each sample, though the same scarlet yarn +were employed in the production of the respective textures. +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_43">[Pg 43]</span> +Cutting away the grounds and comparing the spots from +each on a common surface would show that identically the +same scarlet had been used in the three fabrics: yet so apparent +is their dissimilarity of hue that a casual examination would +pronounce them distinct shades. Thus, on the black surface +the spots gain intensity and lustre; on the grey they appear +murky and dingy; whereas on the white surface the spots +are bright, but evidently pale and washy as compared with +those on the black ground. On varying the colour of the +spots a different set of modifications ensues. Taking blue as +the spotting colour, the black ground neutralizes a degree of +its bloom and brightness; on the grey it suffers in lustre, +but retains its precision of colour, and increases in richness +and fulness of tone on the white fabric. Continuing this idea: +if a batch of red threads were interspersed in a white warp, a +degree of the colour quality would be subdued by the white +threads; but should similar yarns be introduced into a black +warp, an augmentation in the intensity of the red would be +observed, because of the contrast thus created between the +sombreness of the black and the rich brightness of the red: a +contrast which, if the quantity of the red be large, is sufficient +to give a copper-coloured cast to the black threads with which +the red is in immediate contact. A law of colours is, that if +the fancy shade is lighter than the ground colour, it will +increase in brightness of tone; but if, on the other hand, the +“fancy” is darker than the coloured surface on which it is +distributed, it will suffer in tone. Moreover, if two colours, +such as light and dark olive, were arranged together in the +same warp, the former would appear lighter and the latter +darker than they really are. This illusory alteration is entirely +attributable to contrast. Colours of contrasting qualities and +tones undergo two modifications when juxtaposed; first, they +alter in depth, and, second, in nature of hue. When yellow +and blue yarns are woven together, each is subject to this twofold +change produced by contrast; first, as to tone, the yellow +becomes brighter and the blue deeper; second, as to hue, each +is tinged with the complementary colour of the other.</p> + +<p>34. <i>How Colours are Changed by Juxtaposition.</i>—It is a +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_44">[Pg 44]</span> +generally accepted principle of colours that when two surfaces +of different shades are placed in contiguity, each is changed as +though it had been mingled with the complementary of the +other. Chevreul relates an incident, in his Treatise on Colours, +which so clearly sets forth this important rule that it may be +stated here. Certain merchants requested a firm of manufacturers +to ornament red, violet blue, and blue woven stuffs +with black spots or figures. When the goods were produced, +the merchants complained that the spots were not black, as +ordered, but that those on the red fabrics were tinged with green, +on the violet with dark greenish yellow, while those developed +on the blue were toned with a chocolate or coffee-coloured +shade. Chevreul,⁠<a id="FNanchor_8_8" href="#Footnote_8_8" class="fnanchor">[8]</a> in order to prove that the spots were perfectly +black, covered the separate grounds with white paper, when it +was at once discovered that the changes in the colours of the +spots were entirely due to the contrast ensuing between the +black shades and the respective grounds on which the spots +had been arranged. All this conclusively shows that colour +is a modifier of colour, and hence those hues which possess +bloom and richness of tone on one species of coloured surface +may be quite different on another. It is a good plan to combine +the shades in the precise order in which they are intended to +occur on a black ground. Classification in this way enables +the colourist to estimate at a glance, without putting the +pattern into the loom, the general tone of the shades.</p> + +<p>A common law of Colouring is, that the general effect of +combining colours is that they appear further apart in the +chromatic scale. Thus, when orange and red are combined, +the former does not become reddish or the latter orangish, but +the red seems to approach purple and the orange to assume a +greenish cast. Complementary colours—<i>i.e.</i> those farthest apart +in hue—are the least affected by association, as is evidenced +by the results of such contrasts as red and green, blue and +orange, and yellow and purple. An illustration may elucidate +this primary principle of colour combinations. If a striped fabric +were composed of bands of rose (Tint 4, <a href="#plate04">Plate <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a>) and lavender +(Tint 10, <a href="#plate04">Plate <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a>) colours, one hue would help to give +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_45">[Pg 45]</span> +prominence to the other, because they strongly contrast with +each other. On the other hand, if the same rose tint were +combined with straw or primrose (Tint 16, <a href="#plate04">Plate <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a>), then +the individuality of the separate colours would suffer, for, being +similar in character, they would neutralize each other’s attributes, +and would impinge upon one another. Hence, if in colouring +textiles, it is required to preserve the intrinsic attributes of a +shade, it should be combined with such colours as will differ +most decidedly from it in hue and other qualities; whereas, +if it is sought to change, by the law of contrast, any particular +shade, it should be brought into contiguity with potent colours +more or less allied to it in tone and hue.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp63" id="plate07a" style="max-width: 43.75em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/plate07a.jpg" alt="Blue texture"> + <figcaption style="color: blue;"> + <p class="center">Plate <abbr title="Seven">VII</abbr><br> + <span class="allsmcap">1.

FANCY-TWIST YARN SPECIMEN</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>35. <i>Contrast.</i>—What is termed “contrast” is that principle +or quality of tints which produces a change in their lustre, +depth, saturation, and hue, when in immediate contact with +each other.</p> + +<p>Contrast may be explained by considering the effect of black +and grey yarns in a woven style to which white is subsequently +added. There is contrast in the pattern before the white is +introduced, but it lacks precision and force. The addition of +white imparts lustre to the grey, and fulness of tone to the +black. Correctly speaking, neither the black nor the grey +are changed by the white; they are, as it were, developed by +it. White, in this instance, has the same function as in shaded +drawings, in which clearness and boldness are given to form +and outline by increasing the dark element of some parts +and the light element of others. What may be designated a +Tempered Contrast, originates when a quantity of grey intervenes +in a mixture of black and white. In the shading of a +round surface, this kind of contrast, in neutral tints, is developed +to perfection, undue harshness of effect being neutralized by +the gradual toning of black into white; but in the shading of +angular objects, the sudden transitions from the extreme light +to the extreme dark end of the scale of shades, produce good +illustrations of the characteristics of Decided Contrasts. A +pattern composed solely of black and white yarns is full of +this kind of contrast, but by adding grey a toning element +is introduced which forms a mellowed or tempered combination. +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_46">[Pg 46]</span> +Decided or “hard” contrasts, resulting from the use +of positive (primary and secondary) colours, are exactly the +reverse of graduated ones; they are inartistic, and deficient +in softness which constitutes good colouring; on the other +hand, toned contrasts possess richness and mellowness. Contrasts +obtained by combining pure colours may be harsh and +displeasing to the eye. Red and blue, for example, form a +strong colour contrast, but this may be subdued by changing +them to tones or tints. This will be seen by combining +the following derivatives of these primaries: dark brown +(Shade 1, <a href="#plate04">Plate <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a>) and dark blue (Shade 7, <a href="#plate04">Plate <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a>), and +rose pink (Tint 5, <a href="#plate04">Plate <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a>) and blue lavender (Tint 11, +<a href="#plate04">Plate <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a>). On account of the colours in these cases being +either shades or tints, they produce mellow or tempered and +not harsh or pronounced contrasts.</p> + +<p>36. <i>Examples in Contrasts.</i>—On <a href="#plate08a">Plate <abbr title="Eight">VIII.</abbr></a> and in <abbr title="Numbers">Nos.</abbr> 1 and +2, two illustrations in contrast are given. In <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 1 the two +ground colours, pale blue and straw, form a passable contrast, but +the small lines of orange impart harshness of effect to the stripe. +The strength of hue of this colour is not suitable for the +stripings on which it is placed. Providing only three colours +were allowable in this composition, then to prevent the orange +from being too pronounced, it should be softened or tempered as +in the illustration, <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 2, <a href="#plate08a">Plate <abbr title="Eight">VIII.</abbr></a> While in this latter +example the pale blue and straw remain the same, yet the +mellowing of the orange into a paler tint produces a strip of +colouring in which each element, being of similar depth of +tone, is equally prominent and effective. Comparing these +illustrations further, it is obvious that in <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 1 the orange +characteristic first strikes the eye. The slight hardness of tone +does not arise from any want of beauty in the separate colours, +but from the relative undue strength and vividness of the shade +of orange. Providing this hue were replaced by green, an +imperfect contrast would be formed; for green, while detracting +from the lustre of the pale yellow or straw, would also harmonize +indifferently with the lavender or tempered blue. From these +illustrations it will be evident that in a satisfactory blend of +colours all hues contribute to the attractiveness of the <i lang="fr">ensemble</i>; +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_47">[Pg 47]</span> +but in an imperfect contrast one or more colours may subtract +from the lustre of adjacent hues, and partially neutralize their +effect.</p> + +<p>37. <i>Economic Contrasts.</i>—Economic Contrasts comprise the +production of the most effective styles with a minimum variety +of hues. It does not follow because a pattern contains a diversity +of shades that it will be attractive. Just as it frequently +happens that the most permanently beautiful patterns result +from the simple but unique methods of amalgamating forms, so +by the artistic arrangement of a few choice colours excellent +contrasts may be produced. To multiply the diversity of hues +in any combination without marked increase of beauty is +calculated to be more detrimental than beneficial to the style. +An economic method of colouring consists in blending shades or +tints of the same colour, and freshening or brightening the style +by the use of “extras” or “fancies.” To practise economy in colour +compounds, the first care should always be to obtain appropriate +ground shades: if these produce harmony and possess a rich +though subdued bloom, but few bright colours will be necessary +to impart freshness and lustre to the style. On the other hand, +an indifferent selection of foundation shades implies the employment +of an increased range of fancies to tone, strengthen, and +brighten the contrasts.</p> + +<p>38. <i>Two Kinds of Contrasts.</i>—All types of colour compounds +may be included under two heads: namely, Mono-chromatic and +Poly-chromatic Contrasts. The former comprise all species of +contrasts due to a diversity of tint or shade in one colour; the +latter comprise all kinds of contrasts arising from combining two +or more distinct colours. The strongest and most effective +colourings occur in poly-chromatic contrasts; while soft, subdued, +and graduated tonings are largely characteristic of analogous +colour contrasts. Blends of scarlet and green, yellow and blue, +and orange and purple are colour couplets which illustrate the +principles of contrast due to a diversity of hues; but blends of +two shades of brown, blue, or slate, form contrasts belonging to +the mono-chromatic class. In textile designing both these types +of colouring obtain. They are frequently present in the same +pattern, for a style may contain contrasts in shade, as well as +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_48">[Pg 48]</span> +contrasts in hue. For example, if two shades of brown, forming +the bulk of a pattern, are brightened by extra threads of scarlet +and blue, its colour elements are a co-mixture of both kinds of +contrasts defined above.</p> + +<p>39. <i>Poly-chromatic Contrasts.</i>—A suggestive illustration of +this species of colour arrangement is given on <a href="#plate08b">Plate <abbr title="Eight">VIII.</abbr></a> in +<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 3. It is a scrap of textile ornament, borrowed from a +Japanese work on decorative fabrics found in a Buddhist temple. +A more vigorous combination of colours, possessed of greater +potency and lustre, it would be difficult to conceive. With such +chromatic science have the various hues been associated that +each retains, unaffected, its individual strength and vividness. +Considering that this group of forms contains no fewer than +seven colours, in addition to black and white, and that the +ground shade is a deep purple, the lustre of the separate +hues is exceptional and a forcible quality of the design. +Purple, as a rule, is a shade that, in virtue of its potency, +alters all colours with which it may be mingled that are +in any way akin to it, such as greens, blues, and reds; but it +forms strong and decided contrasts with yellow, orange, and +their derivatives. It becomes, therefore, an interesting inquiry, +why in this blend of hues, green and blue lose none of their +freshness and saturation. The method of arranging the colours, +or the plan of combination—comprising the couplets scarlet +and orange, deep and pale greens, and deep and pale blues—supplemented +by the ingenious touches of black and white, +are elements at the base of the colour emphasis characterizing +the entire pattern. For the purpose of making the sequent +analysis as lucid and instructive as possible, one of the four +triple-leaved conventional forms surrounding the central diamond +figure may be isolated, and its colourings alone considered; for +each of these not only comprises every kind of hue entering into +the design, but also illustrates the system of colour-mingling +adopted throughout the design. Starting with the minute spots +of scarlet—they are contingent, on the one side, with the purple +ground: and, on the other side, with the small curved strips of +orange. If the eye is allowed to single out and rest upon these +scarlet sections where they are in contiguity with the purple, +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_49">[Pg 49]</span> +it will be noticed that the scarlet gains a crimsonish hue; but +the eye takes simultaneous cognizance of the whole series of +hues—a feature of the pattern which markedly contributes to +the freshness of the individual colours. As a result of the +incompetency of the eye to view the colours separately, and also +on account of the method of arranging the colours, green at once +associates itself in the mind of the observer with scarlet, and +orange with pale green and deep blue. The law of contrasts +brings the complementary colours in affinity, and, as a consequence, +develops strength and fulness of hue. Impingement +of colours is by this means avoided. The white edging of the +leaves prevents the purple ground from affecting the purity of +the pale blue, and also imparts clearness of outline to the +ornament in general.</p> + +<p>The lessons to be learnt from this colouring may be summarized +as follows: First, pure complementary colours, when +adjacent, do not neutralize, but develop the qualities of each other; +second, that by an appropriate use of white and black, as agents +for separating colours, kindred hues may be arranged to produce +an attractive contrast; and third, a medium shade of green gives +lustre to scarlet, and palish green and deepish blue are complementary +to orange.</p> + +<p>Some useful ideas may be gleaned from this example in Colour +Contrasts for textile purposes. Thus, the small figures composed +of the tints, as arranged in one of the conventionalized leaves +of this design, may be grouped on a sateen system in a style +for fancy vestings. It is suggestive in other ways. Ideas +for cotton stripes or checks of a flannelette class may, for +example, be obtained from it. Stripes of the blue shades here +given, placed on a white ground, and brightened with a few +threads of the orange hue, would form harmonious colouring. +Again, a fabric of a dress-stuff description, in which the same +arrangement of tints is observed, but the colours softened or +tempered with black, could be appropriately coloured on this +system. In such an instance scarlet would be replaced by dark +brown (Shade I, <a href="#plate04">Plate <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a>); orange by reddish olive (Shade 9, +<a href="#plate06">Plate <abbr title="Six">VI.</abbr></a>); medium green by deep green (Shade 2, <a href="#plate06">Plate <abbr title="Six">VI.</abbr></a>); pale +green by toned green (Shade 3, <a href="#plate06">Plate <abbr title="Six">VI.</abbr></a>); blue by dark blue +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_50">[Pg 50]</span> +(Shade 7, <a href="#plate04">Plate <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a>); and pale blue by toned blue (Shade 9, +<a href="#plate04">Plate <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a>). It is evident from this group of shades that such a +brilliant blend of hues as that composing the design given in +<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 3, <a href="#plate08b">Plate <abbr title="Eight">VIII.</abbr></a>, may be turned to useful account; for in this +instance it has been made to form the base of a new scheme of +combining a number of dark colours adapted to a dress-stuff style. +Of course it will be noticed that the modified colours are related +in hue to the pure colours of the specimen of colour contrast +considered; hence it follows that if the original colouring is +characterized by balance of tone and harmony, the resultant +blend of shades must possess similar qualities mellowed and +tempered in intensity.</p> + +<p>One further thought on this plan of colour-mingling should be +alluded to. In the foregoing example in shade-deduction from a +combination of bright hues, dark colours have been employed; but +it is equally feasible to appropriate tints as follows: rose (Tint 6, +<a href="#plate04">Plate <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a>) for scarlet; pinkish orange (Tint 11, <a href="#plate06">Plate <abbr title="Six">VI.</abbr></a>) for +orange; pale blue (Tint 11, <a href="#plate04">Plate <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a>) for blue; lavender (Tint +10, <a href="#plate04">Plate <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a>) for light blue; pale green (Tint 5, <a href="#plate06">Plate <abbr title="Six">VI.</abbr></a>) for +green; and very pale green (Tint 4, <a href="#plate06">Plate <abbr title="Six">VI.</abbr></a>) for light green. +This series of tints, when associated with suitable quantities of +white, might be applied to textiles with satisfactory results, more +especially if the system of grouping given in <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 3, <a href="#plate08b">Plate <abbr title="Eight">VIII.</abbr></a>, +were adopted. Illustrations, based on this interesting specimen +of colour amalgamation, have been multiplied because they +indicate how useful “hints” in harmonious colouring may be +gleaned from an apparently extravagant though elegant arrangement +of hues.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp40" id="plate08a" style="max-width: 37.5em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/plate08a.jpg" alt="Colour contrasts-stripes"> + <figcaption style="color: blue;"> + <p class="center">Plate <abbr title="Eight">VIII</abbr><br> + <span class="allsmcap">EXAMPLES IN COLOUR CONTRASTS</span><br> + <span class="smaller">1, 2.

Figuring in Bright Colours.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>40. <i>Mono-chromatic or Analogous Contrasts.</i>—This kind of +colour contrast is extensively applied to all classes of decorative +work. Nature abounds with suggestive illustrations of the +principles of these colourings, a few of which may be described. +Amongst flowers and plant forms which exhibit contrasts in +reddish hues, the rose and stem of a forced rhubarb are +particularly good. Take the rose first. What a beautiful +delicate series of red tints it contains, and how mellow and +rich are its finely gradated tones! There is an entire absence +of harshness or even tendency to hardness of tinting in its +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_51">[Pg 51]</span> +colour composition. Ruskin, writing on gradation of hues, +observes: “The victorious beauty of the rose as compared with +other flowers depends wholly on the delicacy and quantity of +its colour-gradations, all other flowers being either less rich in +gradation, not having so many folds of leaf, or less tender, being +patched and veined instead of flushed.” A stem of rhubarb also +contains an infinite variety of gradations of crimson. At the base, +it commences with a saturated crimson which alters in intensity +to a palish pink. Not only are examples in red contrasts discovered +in natural forms, but also shadings and tintings of green, +blue, and brown. In the flimsy, delicate petals of the harebell +several gradations of blue occur, running from a deep to a palish +tint. For browns, the foliage of autumn only need be referred +to. The leaves teem with diversity of shade, yet all the colours +are of a brownish cast, varying from bright tan to rich russet. +Some species of sandstone and pebbles exhibit useful gradations +of fawn, such as cool and warm colours, especially suitable for +application to textile patterns.</p> + +<p>The chief characteristics of graduated contrasts—which compose +a large variety of colourings in decorative design—are +softness and mellowness of toning, combined with lustre and +force of effect. Compared with hue contrasts, they may lack +strength and precision of emphasis, but they possess a soft, +saturated fulness which makes them useful in the production of +fancy textures.</p> + +<p>41. <i>Toned and Tinted Contrasts.</i>—Mono-chromatic compositions +may be considered under two varieties, namely, Toned +and Tinted Contrasts. The former comprise all associations of +shades in which the colours have been toned or darkened by +admixture with black; while the latter are composed solely of +colours which have been tinted with white. These contrasts +comprise the most valuable assortments of colours seen in fabrics +produced for wearing purposes. Their quiet and mellow toning +makes them of great utility in textile designing. Probably +the largest proportion of fancy textures manufactured for men’s +wear, results from this sort of colour composition.</p> + +<p>Illustrations in this type of colouring deserve to be carefully +considered. The first example which will be alluded to is +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_52">[Pg 52]</span> +on <a href="#plate09a">Plate <abbr title="Nine">IX.</abbr></a>, <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 1. It is a toned contrast, being a mixture of +the three browns, Shades 1, 2, and 3 on <a href="#plate04">Plate <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a> The style is +suitable for either woollen or worsted materials, and is of a check +description. The mode of sketching shows the effect due to the +simple twilled weave used in its construction, as well as the +peculiar form of check resulting from the plan of blending the +shades. But it is the colour element of this fabric, with its +gradated contrasts, that is at this stage most important. The +three shades of brown have been combined thus in both warp and +weft: 8 threads of dark brown, 8 threads of medium brown, +8 threads of light brown, and 8 threads of medium brown. The +medium shade thus alternates with the dark and light colours, +maintaining one depth of contrast throughout the pattern. +Blues (Shades 7, 8, and 9, <a href="#plate04">Plate <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a>), greens (Shades 1, 2. and 3, +<a href="#plate06">Plate <abbr title="Six">VI.</abbr></a>), or olives (Shades 7, 8, and 9, <a href="#plate06">Plate <abbr title="Six">VI.</abbr></a>) might have +been selected with similar results as the browns of this illustration. +Three greys would also have shown the principle of this +type of contrast, for compositions of dark, medium, and light +greys form an endless diversity of textile patterns. But to +return to this brown example. The contrast is of a mellow +kind. There is no marked distinction between the shades, the +three composing a softly-toned coloured effect. This characteristic +of the style is of course attributable to the several shades +being derivatives of the same hue—the red element predominating +in each. Whatever kind of shaded or tinted contrasts +are considered, they are characterized by the same tone of +colouring seen in this pattern.</p> + +<p>In order to show the precise nature of this class of contrast +in tints instead of shades, another illustration is that in <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 2 +on <a href="#plate09b">Plate <abbr title="Nine">IX.</abbr></a>, composed in this instance of three lilac tints +similar to those given in <abbr title="Numbers">Nos.</abbr> 16, 17, and 18, on <a href="#plate06">Plate <abbr title="Six">VI.</abbr></a> +Again, the plan of the weave of the fabric is cassimere twill, +but the system of colouring has been diversified; thus, it consists +of 16 threads of the deep tint, 8 threads of the medium tint, +16 threads of the light tint, and 8 threads of the medium tint. +While this arrangement forms a somewhat more varied style +than the preceding method of combination, the tints of which it +is composed are distributed in equal quantities, producing a +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_53">[Pg 53]</span> +uniform colouring. Its quality of mellowness is even more pronounced +than that of <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 1. Being a light pattern, it possesses +a unique delicacy of toning. This applies to all compositions of +tints, which, when properly graduated, constitute the most +mellow type of colouring producible.</p> + +<p>These illustrations in Toned and Tinted Contrasts are typical +of the general effects obtainable by combining colours of the +same hue but of different degrees of lightness and shade; they +show that while effective compositions may be acquired with +shades or tints, yet they are usually deficient in that force of +contrast characterizing patterns containing a variety of hues.</p> + +<p>42. <i>Comparison of Contrasts by Shade and Contrasts by +Colour.</i>—Relatively considered, contrasts in several colours are +more definite and brilliant than contrasts in shades or tints; +hence the former are applied to all classes of decorative fabrics, +while the latter constitute the bulk of the colouring in textures +made for wearing purposes. Of course, both systems of colouring +largely overlap each other, making it impossible to limit +the classes of fabrics in which each finds expression; still, in the +general run of styles, tempered colours are the most appropriate +for the ground or foundation of wearable textures; while, on +the other hand, bright and positive colours impart the most +telling precision to ornamental forms. Hence it may be affirmed +to be a common law in textile colouring, that shades and tints +compose a large proportion of styles intended for garments, +whereas the special province of hue contrasts is in the development +of figured designs. Tartan checks or plaids (see <a href="#plate05">Plates <abbr title="Five">V.</abbr></a> +and <a href="#plate10"><abbr title="Ten">X.</abbr></a>) are amongst the principal exceptions to this rule.</p> + +<p>43. <i>Shaded and Tinted Compositions.</i>—These may either +result from the use of one or more colours. First, suppose an +instance in which blue shades are combined with blue tints, or +in which the same hue prevails throughout the whole of the +colouring. Thus, take the three shades given in <abbr title="Numbers">Nos.</abbr> 7, 8, and +9, and combine them to form a striped pattern with the three +tints, <abbr title="Numbers">Nos.</abbr> 10, 11, and 12, on <a href="#plate04">Plate <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a> Providing they are +arranged in the order here mapped out, they would constitute a +perfectly toned shade of blue. The gradations would run from +a deep shade to a light tint, or from an extreme dark to an +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_54">[Pg 54]</span> +extreme light blue. An idea of how shaded patterns are arrived +at in woven textures, in one hue of colour, may be gleaned from +this example, for it is evident from the elements of its arrangement +that a shaded effect may be produced in all kinds of hues, +such as brown, olive, and green, if they are capable of yielding a +sufficient diversity of toning.</p> + +<p>But, in addition to this method of associating tints and +shades, these colour derivatives are also combined in distinct +hues, forming a varied assortment of colourings. A ground +pattern, for example, consists solely of an arrangement of +shades; but, in order to give brightness to the style, a few fancy +threads of tints derived from other hues—possibly of opposite, +or may be of complementary, qualities to those from which the +shades have originated—may be called into requisition. This +principle of colouring may be clearly demonstrated by referring +to the brown check pattern given in <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 1, <a href="#plate09a">Plate <abbr title="Nine">IX.</abbr></a> To impart +a degree of freshness to this design, blue tinted threads +might be employed, say about two between each shade. Exactly +the same tint should not be introduced between the checks of the +several shades. For the darkest shade the deepest tint should +be used, for the medium shade the medium tint, and for the +light shade the light tint; in other terms, whatever the nature +of the shade, a corresponding tint is requisite. Balance of +colouring and of contrast is only attainable by strict adherence +to this rule. If the same tint were used for all the shades, it +would appear stronger and more pronounced in some sections +of the pattern than others. The blue tint which produces +exactly the desired contrast when associated with the light +brown of this pattern, would have a very different effect if +placed on the dark brown: so that in applying tints to a good +blend of shades, or shades to a good blend of tints, to secure +diversity and freshness of pattern, combined with uniformity of +contrast, care must be exercised in the selection and appropriation +of these fancy or brightening elements, otherwise they are +likely to prove more or less effective in some instances than +calculated, and to destroy the harmony of the whole colouring.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp100" id="plate09a" style="max-width: 43.75em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/plate09a.jpg" alt="Contrasts in Tone"> + <figcaption style="color: blue;"> + <p>Plate <abbr title="Nine">IX</abbr><br> + <span class="allsmcap">MONO-CHROMATIC CONTRASTS</span><br> + <span class="smaller">1.

Contrasts in Tints</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>The methods of acquiring Colour Contrasts by combining +tints and shades may be summarized as below: <abbr title="One">I.</abbr> Compositions +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_55">[Pg 55]</span> +of several Shades or Tones of the same Hue;⁠<a id="FNanchor_9_9" href="#Footnote_9_9" class="fnanchor">[9]</a> <abbr title="Two">II.</abbr> Compositions +of several Tints of the same Hue;⁠<a href="#Footnote_9_9" class="fnanchor">[9]</a> <abbr title="Three">III.</abbr> Compositions of Shades +of different Hues; <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr> Compositions of Tints of different Hues; +V. Compositions of Shades and Tints of the same Hue; and <abbr title="Six">VI.</abbr> +Compositions of Shades and Tints of different Hues.</p> + +<p>44. <i>Bright Colour Contrasts Modified with Black and White.</i>—Some +elaborate check patterns for dress and other materials +consist of bright colours. An example of this type of contrast +is supplied on <a href="#plate10">Plate <abbr title="Ten">X</abbr></a>. The colouring is harmonious and +choice; showing that the most potent colours may be used in +textiles with satisfactory results.</p> + +<p>However this pattern is examined, it is lustrous and rich in +composition. Possibly the black and white introduced into the +texture mellow and soften the general colouring, for they undoubtedly +subdue the strength of the contrast arising from three +such positive hues being in immediate affinity with each other. +It is already understood that these shades are of great utility as +mellowing agents when combined with bright colours. They +prevent the sharp contrast which sometimes ensues when several +lustrous hues are in close proximity with each other. Blue and +red in certain forms constitute a harmful contrast, the two producing +anything but delicate harmony. Vigorous as the contrast +is, in this instance it is not harsh or defective. There are several +elements which are conducive to its harmony. First, there are +the black and white threads just alluded to; second, the quantities +in which the several colours are associated; and third, the +peculiar effect due to the plan of interlacing the warp and weft +threads in the construction of the texture. Weaving largely +multiplies the effects due to a combination of colours, as is +instanced by this pattern, which, though only comprising four +distinct colours, and white and black, contains many varieties +of colouring. These result from the different colours crossing +and blending with each other in the formation of the check. +At intervals, the scarlet weft covers the scarlet, blue, green, +yellow, white and black warp yarns, producing a specific effect +in every transition. Analysis shows the various effects to +comprise solid checks of red, green, blue, yellow, black, and +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_56">[Pg 56]</span> +white; and mingled checks of the following shade couplets: +blue and red; yellow and red; green and red; blue and yellow; +blue and black; blue and white; red and black; red and white; +yellow and black; yellow and white; and black and white. +What a variety of lessons in colouring such a woven sample +teaches! The black and white on the red adds mellowness to +this bright colour, in addition to giving diversity of effect. The +white in other sections in contiguity with the medium green, and +crossing the yellow, has a like toning quality. The black against +the yellow enhances its brightness, but in juxtaposition with the +blue forms a soft shading, the latter making a clear definition of +colour with the shaded green effect to which it is adjacent.</p> + +<p>The quantities or proportions in which these colours are distributed +in the pattern should be observed. Any increase or even +variation in the quantities of each colour would produce a +different harmony of composition. Regard must, therefore, be +paid to the nature and potency of colours in determining their +scheme of association in textile design.</p> + +<p>45. <i>Successive and Simultaneous Colour Effects.</i>—In the above +pattern, both successive and simultaneous contrasts are found. A +simultaneous contrast is a blend or group of colours in which the +several hues are in proximity. The intermingled checks of red +and blue, yellow and blue, etc., are all illustrative of this type of +contrast. In successive contrasts, there may be the same colours, +but instead of being in juxtaposition they are separated; and, +consequently, do not act in perfect unison on the eye, but each +independently.</p> + +<p>Comparison of the results of these contrasts shows, that colours +suffer the most in lustre and purity of hue when in “simultaneous” +association. Several examples of this kind occur in the +pattern given. For instance, in those sections in which the red +and green are intermingled in equal proportions, both colours +undergo an apparent change in hue. In reality, it is simply the +fundamental law of all colour contrasts asserting its influence on +the colouring as a whole, whereby each hue is modified.</p> + +<p>Amongst some of the most salient principles of textile colouring +emphasized by this design that should be specially noticed, +are these: Colours are modified the most largely in hue when in +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_57">[Pg 57]</span> +actual contact; the stronger two or more colours, the less are +they changed by simultaneous contrast; bright colours on a dark +ground increase in luminosity, but are impoverished if applied to +light grounds; and lastly, that intense colours gain in saturation +on light grounds, but suffer in this quality on medium and dark +surfaces.</p> + +<p>46. <i>Methods of Neutralizing the Effects of Strong Colour Contrasts.</i>—It +has been pointed out that when any positive colours +are in immediate proximity, each suffers somewhat in purity of +hue. To obviate, or partially neutralize, this sequence of colour +association, some ingenious methods and technical devices are +adopted. As already explained, colours change the most in hue +by juxtaposition, so that the object to be attained is to separate +them without bringing the divisional lines into prominence. It +is not always feasible, in figured and fancy fabrics, to have the +colours detached; they frequently intermingle, and it is at the +points of actual contact where the skill of the colourist in obviating +a defective contrast, due to the proximity of two or more +brilliant hues, is exercised. <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 1, <a href="#plate11a">Plate <abbr title="Eleven">XI.</abbr></a>, illustrates this feature +of colouring. This pattern is composed of red and blue, and +contains small quantities of a third hue which are of value to +the harmony and contrast of the design. If the red had been +allowed to actually touch the blue ground, the figuring would +have lacked precision, and the colouring congruity of toning. +Moreover, as green is the contrasting colour of scarlet, it has +developed the figuring, and mellowed the effect of red on this +deep blue ground. Minus this intermediate colour, the contrast +would have been harsh, if not defective; but by its employment +richness has been given to the red and softness of tone to the +blue. Let it be supposed that red and blue were substituted in +succession by green and tan (Shades 6, <a href="#plate06">Plate <abbr title="Six">VI.</abbr></a>, and 3, <a href="#plate04">Plate +IV.</a>); by olive and rose (Shade 15, and Tint 5, <a href="#plate04">Plate <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a>); and +by lilac and primrose (Tint 16, <a href="#plate06">Plate <abbr title="Six">VI.</abbr></a>, and Tint 16, <a href="#plate04">Plate <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a>). +Tan, rose, and primrose to compose the figuring, and green, olive, +and lilac the ground in the new colourings. Now, in order to +prevent impingement of hues, divisional colours to take the place +of the green in the illustration should be selected, which, while +contrasting with the several hues employed for the figuring, +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_58">[Pg 58]</span> +should also harmonize with the ground colours. For the first +couplet, the pale blue (Tint 10, <a href="#plate04">Plate <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a>) may be used; for the +olive and rose combination, pea-green (Tint 4, <a href="#plate06">Plate <abbr title="Six">VI.</abbr></a>); while +for the lilac and rose blend, the salmon in Tint 11, <a href="#plate06">Plate <abbr title="Six">VI.</abbr></a>, will +be found useful. In each of these instances there is harmony +and contrast of colours, which would prominently develop the +figured sections of the design. To show these results, paint +two pieces of paper similar in hue to Shades 6, <a href="#plate06">Plate <abbr title="Six">VI.</abbr></a>, and +3, <a href="#plate04">Plate <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a> Having done this, place the tan sample—which +should be smaller than its companion—on the green slip, and then +surround it with a narrow slip of rose, Tint 4 of <a href="#plate04">Plate <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a> On +adding this last colour, a tasteful contrast will be formed by +the green spot and the rose edging; and also soft, mellow +harmony produced by this tint and the tan groundwork. +Should each of the colourings alluded to be similarly experimented +with, they would constitute equally pleasing combinations. +As important principles underlie this kind of colour +arrangement, it is advisable that numerous experiments o£ this +class should be made by the reader; for, in order to educate the +eye for colour contrast and harmony, practice in the combination +of hues is essential.</p> + +<p>47. <i>Harmony.</i>—Some colourists have propounded theories of +harmony which are quite untenable in practice. For example, one +scheme is based on the supposition that if the primaries are blended +in the proportions of 3 parts of red, 5 parts of yellow, and 8 parts +of blue, harmony of composition ensues. There can be no doubt +that the ratio of quantities materially affects the congruity of +tone of all shade assortments; but in designing it is not feasible +to work to any set of proportions. Colour harmonies are not to +be acquired by rigid adherence to a mathematical system of +arrangement. Theories of this kind cannot be said to be of +much technical value. Acute and cultured discriminative power +for colour is of more consequence in this art than theoretical +directions; the acquirement of what Rood calls “a delicate +colour emphasis” is difficult even when there is natural aptitude +for colouring. Systematic study of the works of designers of +acknowledged capacity, and of all accessible rare and well-coloured +woven specimens in harmony of tinting, should be +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_59">[Pg 59]</span> +made. Adopting this course, the student will acquire a ready +capacity for blending hues by such methods, as to compose +choice and harmonious results.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp44a" id="plate10" style="max-width: 25.9375em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/plate10.jpg" alt="Bright colouring in plaids"> + <figcaption style="color: blue;"> + <p>Plate <abbr title="Ten">X</abbr><br> + <span class="allsmcap">SPECIMEN OF BRIGHT COLOURING IN PLAIDS</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>48. <i>Principles of Harmony.</i>—Though Colour Harmony is +intricate, and more or less incapable of being reduced to rigid +principles, yet its general qualities may be clearly defined. For +instance, certain colours when amalgamated fail to produce congruous +patterns; whereas other colours invariably constitute +harmonious compositions.</p> + +<p>Harmony, moreover, is only attainable when the several +colours are combined in such proportionate quantities, and on +such principles of shade-association, that each hue employed will +conduce to the mellowness of the whole pattern. Should any +colour be conspicuous, it is sufficient to detract from the +harmony of the entire colouring. Balance of hues is an important +essential; and it is generally a feature dependent on the +proportions in which the several colours are combined. Examine, +for example, the blue-green and scarlet check on <a href="#plate11b">Plate <abbr title="Eleven">XI.</abbr></a>, <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 2. +Red is so much more potent than green, that when these two +hues are associated in the same pattern, the former requires to +be used less extensively than the latter. The common rule is +that those colours which are the intensest and strongest in hue +should be sparingly employed. When the various shades are of +equal depth, the quantities may be more uniform, being only +varied to such an extent as to impart precision to the leading +features of the design.</p> + +<p>Apart from hints that may be given in harmonious colouring, +and knowledge that may be acquired by study and experiment +in blending hues, in order to excel in this art the designer must +possess natural aptitude for the work.</p> + +<div class="p2 footnotes"><h4>FOOTNOTES:</h4> + +<div class="blockquot"> +<div class="footnote"><p class="unindent"><a id="Footnote_8_8" href="#FNanchor_8_8" class="label">[8]</a> Chevreul: <cite>The Laws of Contrast of Colour</cite>, p. 120.</p></div> + +<div class="footnote"><p class="unindent"><a id="Footnote_9_9" href="#FNanchor_9_9" class="label">[9]</a> <i>Analogous Colours.</i></p></div></div> +</div> +<hr class="chap x-ebookmaker-drop"> + + +<div class="chapter"> +<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_60">[Pg 60]</span></p> + <h2 class="nobreak" id="CHAPTER_IV"> + CHAPTER <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr> + </h2> + <h3> + COLOUR STANDARDIZATION. + </h3> +</div> + +<div class="blockquot"> +<p>49.

The manufacturer +of each of these styles of textures should select standards of +different degrees of brightness. In the second place, the colourist +must have free scope—he should not on any account be fettered—in +his work. Standardization may appear to impose restrictions. +But on considering the several, branches of textiles, it +is obvious that certain elemental ranges of shades are mainly +used in the several departments of woven manufactures, as, for +example, in fabrics for men’s wear, women’s wear, decorative and +other purposes. This not only suggests the possibility, but +renders it feasible—without placing limitation upon the originative +faculty of the designer—of adopting in practice a standard +set or series of selected colours from which other shades may, by +the process of blending, be acquired.</p> + +<p>This may be done with the object of (1) economy of colour +production, a limited set of colours yielding an unlimited set of +distinct shades; (2) the substitution of uncertainty of “colour” or +“shade” due to independent dyeings, by certainty of result due +to mixing; and (3) the manufacture of yarns by blending from +a set of fixed colours which may be stocked, producing new shades +as varied and solid in appearance as those obtainable in dyeing.</p> + +<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_61">[Pg 61]</span> +In the ordinary method of obtaining new shades by blending, +there is an absence of a scale of fixed colours; neither in the +blending is there a base of proportions, nor in the colours +combined a standard scheme of colour gradation. But in +standardization there is a distinct range of colours, each of +which is toned or graded to the same degree.</p> + +<p>50. <i>Systems of Colour Standardization.</i>—There are two +systems on which Colour Standardization may be effected, namely, +(1) the primaries, secondaries, and tertiaries may be adopted as the +initial colours; and (2) a series of initial colours may be determined +upon, each colour being graded from light to dark, and forming +a number of intermediate shades between the two extremes.</p> + +<p>Defining the first system, the Primary and Secondary colours +have each three distinctive hues, that is, the pure or spectrum +hue, and the two obtained by modification.</p> + +<p class="indent5 unindent smaller"> +Red, tinged with blue, forms crimson.<br> +Red, tinged with yellow, forms scarlet.<br> +Yellow, tinged with red, becomes slightly orange in tone.<br> +Yellow, tinged with blue, becomes slightly green in tone.<br> +Blue, tinged with red, becomes slightly purple in tone.<br> +Blue, tinged with yellow, becomes slightly green in tone. +</p> + +<p class="unindent">thus changing the hue, but to such a small degree that the +original colour predominates.</p> + +<p>The Secondaries and Tertiaries are subjective to similar +changes without eliminating the definite or spectrum colour.⁠<a id="FNanchor_10_10" href="#Footnote_10_10" class="fnanchor">[10]</a></p> + +<p>On this principle, eighteen base colours are obtained, all of +which, by the addition of white in variable quantities, may form +a series of tints, and by the addition of black, a series of tones; or +they may be softened in brilliancy by the addition of neutral grey.</p> + +<p>In such a scheme, it would probably only be found desirable +to modify the Tertiaries by mixing with black and white +respectively.</p> + +<p>The question of the brilliance of the initial colours is one that +has to be fixed according to the application of the scheme. To +mix pure white with the colours described would give, in many +instances, useful tints for the dress and decorative trades, and +also, if mixed with black, suitable tones for the same fabrics; +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_62">[Pg 62]</span> +but for ordinary textile purposes the pure elemental colours are +too bright. These would require to be dulled or subdued by +adding neutral grey to a definite scale of gradation.</p> + +<p>51. <i>Standardization by Selected Colours.</i>—The second method +of Standardization consists, as stated, in selecting a series of +recognized workable colours and graduating them to six or more +degrees. The principal colours are blue, green, and brown, with +the addition of blue green, olive, and heliotrope, or colours which, +with their gradations, are generally found most appropriate in +fabrics for wearing purposes. (See series A to J, <a href="#plate12a">Plate <abbr title="Twelve">XII.</abbr></a>)</p> + +<p>Having fixed upon the initial colour in each set, the question +of toning or gradation is all-important. A uniform scale of +gradation must be adhered to in each group. If this is departed +from, mixing would result in a want of balance of gradation.</p> + +<p>The base for the standard series of tones and tints are neutral +greys (see <a href="#plate12a">Plate <abbr title="Twelve">XII.</abbr></a>). Here the mixing of black and white may +be made to give ten or twelve or more tones with similar degrees +of difference. A scheme of gradation formed in this way is, +applicable to any type of blend composed of a dark and a light +shade, corresponding to black and white in the grey. Between +the two extreme colours, several shades may be introduced, and +yet uniform toning maintained; for whichever series of colours is +selected, it will be seen that the movement from a dark shade to +a lighter, in any part of the series, is correct as to depth and +tone. This must be an absolute law in mixing the same number +of colours in any series, or any group, providing that the scale +of tones has been accurately produced in each kind of colour.</p> + +<p><a id="par52"></a>52. <i>Analysis of Standardization Scheme, Plate <abbr title="Twelve">XII.</abbr></i>—The +chart contains in specimens 1 to 6, series A to J, the simple or +dyed colours which have been selected as the base or scale +standards.

In +other words, if the difference in tone or the difference in hue is +pronounced, mixtures and not solid shades are formed.</p> + +<p>53. <i>Use of Standards in Blending.</i>—In both the Woollen and +Worsted trades, blending is an important department of yarn +manufacture. Solid shades are obtainable in piece-dyes, but +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_64">[Pg 64]</span> +mixtures have to be acquired by the blending of coloured +materials. The designer and colourist has resource to the combination +of colour units in the blending of fibres in the production +of shades and mixtures possessing novelty of tone. In this task +he has two considerations: (1) the choice of the separate or +distinct colours which, prior to blending, must form, in juxtaposition, +harmony and contrast; and (2) the proportionate +quantities in which they are to be combined. The latter, as +every colourist has proved, may destroy the value of the former. +Much of the success of colouring, whether in the material or the +yarn, depends upon the relative weight, intensity, and proportions +in which the colours are united. Now, when a scheme of +standardization has been formed, and is used, the proportionate +parts or quantities are according to a fixed mathematical scale, +but the discovery of the correct colours to blend according to any +series of these proportions is left to the trained faculty of the +designer or expert, who must have regard to the fabrics and style +of design to which they are to be applied.</p> + +<p>The proportionate scale which is used does not affect the +latitude for the exercise of the faculty for colour combination, +but rather presents conditions which are so varied and yet +definable, as to give a certainty of result as to depth and nature +of colouring due to the process of blending.</p> + +<p>There are two great principles on which the art of Colour +Blending in the raw materials is accomplished, namely⁠—</p> + +<p class="hangwide">(1) The origination of blends or mixtures in which tone +gradation is practised.</p> + +<p class="hangwide">(2) The origination of mixtures composed of several Colours +to produce different hues or shades, but these to be of +the same weight or tone.</p> + +<p>In both, it is a problem of how the colour modification is to be +attained. From the explanation given, it is obvious that in the +first principle of blending, a fixed scale of proportions may be +practised, so that the real essence of the work consists in selecting +colours which harmonize with each other and coincide with the +proportions adopted; or, in other words, the relative contrasts of +colour must be in accordance with the relative proportions. That +is to say, if a bright colour, though harmonizing with other +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_65">[Pg 65]</span> +colours in the mixture, is used in too large a measure, the mixture +will be unsatisfactory.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp80" id="plate11a" style="max-width: 43.75em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/plate11a.jpg" alt="Figured Pattern"> + <figcaption style="color: blue;"> + <p>Plate <abbr title="Eleven">XI</abbr><br> + <span class="allsmcap">RED, GREEN AND BLUE COLOURING</span><br> + <span class="smaller">1.

The +scheme is, however, sufficiently complete for the ordinary styles +of woollen, worsted, and other classes of fabrics. For costumes, +vestings, cottons, and silks, richer colours would be desirable. If, +for example, the principle of colouring was in relation to cottons +and silks, then the “tints” of the standards would be found +chiefly applicable, white and light grounds being mainly used; +on the other hand, for fabrics with dark or medium grounds, the +“tones” of the standards would be selected.</p> + +<p>This standard scheme of colours, systematically toned, forms a +practical workable base of colouring, one which, in the first place, +in the use of the pure colours, makes it feasible, in the production +of patterns, to obtain (<i>a</i>) ranges in which the contrast of colour in +each pattern is absolutely uniform, and (<i>b</i>) ranges in which there +may be perfect gradation from the dark to a light shade, and +yet the same quality of contrast of colour in each pattern in the +range.</p> + +<p>In the second place, the scheme provides, by the mixture with +black, grey, and white in succession, a means of acquiring a wide +range of mixtures, each series of which runs by natural and +constant degrees from a comparatively light to a dark result.</p> + +<p>Third, it is possible by this system, in blending two or more +colours, to acquire (<i>a</i>) graded series of mixtures of exactly corresponding +depths of tone; and (<i>b</i>) varieties of mixtures in light, +medium, and dark shades of similar depth of tone, but of +different hues.</p> + +<p>And lastly, the system is applicable to the production of distinct +colours, such as would possess similar qualities to colours dyed +in the wool, yarn, or piece.</p> + +<div class="p2 footnotes"><h4>FOOTNOTES:</h4> + +<div class="blockquot"> +<div class="footnote"><p class="unindent"><a id="Footnote_10_10" href="#FNanchor_10_10" class="label">[10]</a> + See also <abbr title="paragraphs">Pars.</abbr> <a href="#par8">8</a> and <a href="#par9">9</a>.</p></div></div> +</div> +<hr class="chap x-ebookmaker-drop"> + + +<div class="chapter"> +<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_66">[Pg 66]</span></p> + <h2 class="nobreak" id="CHAPTER_V"> + CHAPTER <abbr title="Five">V.</abbr> + </h2> + <h3> + MIXTURES. + </h3> +</div> + +<div class="blockquot"> +<p>55.

Weave Mixtures.</p> +</div> + +<p class="unindent"><a id="para55"></a>55. <i>Varieties of Mixture Patterns.</i>—There are five methods of +making mixture patterns, namely, (<i>a</i>) by carding several colours +of fibrous materials together, producing <i>mixture woollen</i> yarns; +(<i>b</i>) by combining in the process of <i>drawing</i> two or more slivers +of different colours, producing <i>mixture worsted</i> yarns; (<i>c</i>) by +combining in the process of <i>roving</i> two or more slivers of +different colours, producing “<i>marl</i>” <i>worsted</i> yarns; (<i>d</i>) by using +fancy yarns; and (<i>e</i>) by mixing two or more classes of threads +in the weaving process. Each system is extensively practised; +but the most intermingled effects ensue from blending the various +coloured elements in the fibrous form. This system of producing +mixtures yields a yarn in which the separate particles of colour, +however diverse, are uniformly distributed throughout its length. +Carding affords every facility for obtaining a softly toned blend, +or one in which the filaments of distinct colours are perfectly +mixed and intermingled. The shades are, as it were, united in +this instance in the powdered or most minute particled form +possible in textile compositions; whereas the methods of combining +twist yarns, and of weaving shades of distinct colours +together to compose mixture effects, consist of blending comparatively +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_67">[Pg 67]</span> +larger particles of colours. Perfect promiscuity, as a +consequence, characterizes mixtures produced in the willowing +and carding processes. These compositions are also distinguished +by softness and mellowness of tone, entirely foreign to corresponding +effects got by other methods. So completely are the +elements associated on this system, that if blue and yellow wools +were compounded they would constitute a green mixture, not so +pure, however, as if pigments were amalgamated, for reasons +alluded to in the sequel, but still they form a suggestion of this +process of combination. If the same colours were united in the +yarn state, even in the form of twist threads, they would still +appear as separate hues; in other words, the yellow would +remain yellow, and the blue would remain blue. To borrow an +illustration, these methods of compounding fragments of colours +in the manufacture of so-called mixture patterns may be compared +with chemical and mechanical mixtures of substances; for just +as in the former the bodies unite to compose a third substance, +and in the latter they are mixed but not changed, so in +blending colours in the fibre the mixing may be so complete as +to yield an additional shade, but in blending them in the thread +each hue retains its individuality. Twist-yarn mixtures possess +a motley appearance of a broader character than those of +blends in the wool or material, but still the richness of intermingling +of tints is not wanting. In self-coloured yarn patterns +of a mixture class the patchy character and detachment of +individual colours are increased, while the mellowness and toned +softness of the composition are diminished.</p> + +<p>56. <i>Elements of Mixture Colouring.</i>—All mixtures require +mellow treatment as to colour constituents. Patterns of this +order should not be characterized by a patchy, but by a tinted +appearance; every hue employed should be useful in composing +an indefinite series of minute and closely mingled colour effects. +To produce such styles no single hue should be allowed to obtain +greater distinction or more prominence than other adjacent +colours. Bright colours like red, crimson, blue, and yellow, +seldom require to be used in large quantities. Black and white, +browns, tans, medium blues, medium greens, olives, and other +toned and tinted colours, form the main colouring of mixture +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_68">[Pg 68]</span> +compositions: the more potent hues find a province in enriching +and imparting lustre into these patterns.</p> + +<p>The principal colours should generally be of a tempered type; +still, it is important to use bright and decided hues. Murky, dull, +and insipid shades should be avoided, as they are only capable +of yielding dingy effects. The fragmentary nature of mixture +colourings largely affects the lustre of the pattern resultant. +Two colours which, when combined in large quantities, may +possess congruous attributes, on being broken up into particles +and intermingled lose lustre. In blending colours in the natural +state, the separate hues are distinguishable after carding, for +each, in the carded sliver, helps to constitute quite a new and +additional shade. If, for example, claret, fawn, and bright +orange wools, in quantities of four parts of claret and one part +of fawn and one part of the orange were scribbled together, +neither the orange, fawn, nor claret would in the resulting “blend” +possess precisely its original hue. Traces of each would be noticeable, +but a species of indefinite drabbish-brown mixture, streaked +with filaments of orange, would be the composition obtained.</p> + +<p>57. <i>Importance of Pure Materials.</i>—Bright and lustrous +mixtures can only be secured by using pure wools. Such colourings +are not feasible in the low materials used in making some +classes of woven goods. Scotch mixtures will always excel in +brilliant tinting so long as fibres of a mungo, shoddy, and extract +class are rejected by manufacturers north of the Tweed. Having +a good foundation to work upon—a fibre that will not only take +a vivid colour but retain it—Scotch textures, notably Bannockburn +and heather mixtures, are unsurpassed in lustre and mellowness +of toning. Mixtures made in centres of the low woollen +industry are not comparable with them as regards freshness of +colouring. Of course, a passable imitation of the pure wool +production is made, but the fabric lacks not only bloom and +fulness of colouring, but quality and softness of handle. How is +it feasible to get these elements of good mixtures developed +to the same degree in these inferior articles, made of materials +which in some instances have been utilized time after time in +made up garments, and as frequently ground up or reduced to +filaments, scribbled, spun into yarn, and woven into a marketable +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_69">[Pg 69]</span> +fabric, as are obtainable in the genuine woollen texture? +If mixtures bright in colouring are to be acquired, resource must +be had to wools of a sound quality. Stress is laid upon these +points because they lie at the basis of good colouring in mixture +styles; and also on account of the necessarily futile attempts +made by some manufacturers to secure corresponding richness +of composition in a mungo, or partially mungo production, as +characterizes an all-wool article, which it is important to understand +is totally impossible, for the simple fact that the better +the raw material, the more lustrous the coloured effects secured.</p> + +<p class="unindent muchsmaller">[TN: Row labels, top to bottom, for Plate XII panels<br> +rows 7 and 8: Tints or Admixtures with White<br> +rows 1 through 6: Standard Shades<br> +rows 9 and 10: Tones or Admixtures with Black]</p> + +<div class="break"> +<figure class="figcenter illowp54a" id="plate12a" style="max-width: 31.5625em;"> +<table style="color:blue;"> +<tr class="smallest"> +<td class="tdc colwidth"><b>Neutral<br>Greys</b></td> +<td class="tdc colwidth"><i>X A</i></td> +<td class="tdc colwidth"><b>Shade A -<br>Blue</b></td> +<td class="tdc colwidth"><i>X B</i></td> +<td class="tdc colwidth"><b>Shade B -<br>Green Blue</b></td> +<td class="tdc colwidth"><i>X C</i></td> +<td class="tdc colwidth"><b>Shade C -<br>Blue Green</b></td> +</tr> +</table> + <img class="w100" src="images/plate12a.jpg" alt="part 1 of plate 12"> + <figcaption style="color:blue;"> + <p class="xxs">X A Series - Mixtures of Neutral Grey and Standard A<br> + X B Series - Mixtures of Standards A and B<br> + X C Series - Mixtures of Standards B and C</p> + </figcaption> +</figure> +</div> + +<div class="break"> +<table style="color:blue;"> +<tr class="smallest"> +<td class="tdc colwidth"><i>X D</i></td> +<td class="tdc colwidth"><b>Shade D -<br>Green</b></td> +<td class="tdc colwidth"><i>X E</i></td> +<td class="tdc colwidth"><b>Shade E -<br>Yellow Green</b></td> +<td class="tdc colwidth"><i>X F</i></td> +<td class="tdc colwidth"><b>Shade F -<br>Yellow Brown</b></td> +<td class="tdc colwidth"><i>X G</i></td> +</tr> +</table> +<figure class="figcenter illowp56a" style="max-width: 32.8125em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/plate12b.jpg" alt="part 2 of plate 12"> + <figcaption style="color:blue;"> + <p class="xxs">X D Series - Mixtures of Standards C and D<br> + X E Series - Mixtures of Standards D and E<br> + X F Series - Mixtures of Standards E and F</p> + </figcaption> +</figure> +</div> + +<div class="break"> +<figure class="figcenter illowp56a" style="max-width: 32.75em;"> +<table style="color:blue;"> +<tr class="smallest"> +<td class="tdc colwidth"><b>Shade G - <br>Brown</b></td> +<td class="tdc colwidth"><i>X H</i></td> +<td class="tdc colwidth"><b>Shade H -<br>Red Brown</b></td> +<td class="tdc colwidth"><i>X I</i></td> +<td class="tdc colwidth"><b>Shade I -<br>Purple</b></td> +<td class="tdc colwidth"><i>X J</i></td> +<td class="tdc colwidth"><b>Shade J -<br>Warm Blue</b></td> +</tr> +<tr class="smallest"> +<td colspan="4"></td> +<td colspan="3" class="tdc">Intermediate Shades produced by mixing the + standard shades A<sub>1</sub> and B<sub>1</sub>, A<sub>2</sub> and B<sub>2</sub>, etc.</td> +</tr> +</table> + <img class="w100" src="images/plate12c.jpg" alt="part 3 of plate 12"> + <figcaption style="color:blue;"> + <p class="xxs">X G Series - Mixtures of Standards F and G<br> + X H Series - Mixtures of Standards G and H<br> + X I Series - Mixtures of Standards H and I<br> + X J Series - Mixtures of Standards I and J</p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p class="center" style="color:blue;">Plate <abbr title="Twelve">XII.</abbr> <span class="allsmcap">CHART Of SCHEME OF COLOUR STANDARDIZATION</span>.<br> + <span class="small">Originated and Compiled by the Author and Mr. Thomas Hollis</span></p> +</div> + +<p>58. <i>Several Classes of Mixtures Compared.</i>—The diversity of +mixtures, acquired by blending several shades of fibres, is very +large, comprising an infinite range of light, medium, and dark +effects, in both woollen and worsted fabrics. There is, however, +one quality characteristic of every species of this type of +mixtures, namely, a rich, mottled aspect of colouring. Whether +considered in the fibrous state or in the woven fabric, this mingled +but continuous poly-tinted appearance is noticeable. Where the +separate hues occur, and are lost to view, or how numerous they +are, it is only possible to determine after careful examination. +All the hues are scattered equally throughout the mixture, +hence the blend in every part possesses similar qualities of bloom +and diversity of tinting. These mixtures may be distinguished +from those obtained by other processes, by the manner in which +the various colourings are intermingled.</p> + +<p>If a mixture fabric made on this system were compared, by +analysis, with one got by using twist yarns, or by threads of +divers colours in both warp and weft, some interesting results +would be obtained. To dissect a mixture fabric produced by +“blending,” the yarns of which the texture is composed would +require to be reduced to the original filaments. The proportions +in which the colours are combined, are far more difficult to arrive +at than the nature of their hues. Having by this method +secured the exact colour elements, some data has been discovered +upon which to base experiments, which, if properly conducted, +will lead to the determination of the quantities in which the +colours have been combined in the production of the composition. +Ordinary twist-yarn mixtures do not offer so many difficulties +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_70">[Pg 70]</span> +to the analyzer. First, as to their colour constitution: this is +easy to discover if the different kinds of threads are classified, +which can be done by unravelling the texture. Next, ascertain +the colour composition of each by untwining the twists or +separating the threads used in their construction. By adopting +this system,of analysis, both the exact hue of the colours and +the quantities in which they have been combined may be +obtained. The reason why the routine of dissection is, in this +case, comparatively simple, is because the coloured factors of the +fabric may be feasibly separated, whereas in the preceding class +of mixtures the isolation of the various hues of the filaments +employed is more difficult to effect. To discover the composition +of a mixture in which self-coloured yarns have been used, it is +only necessary to ascertain the methods of warping and wefting, +or the plan of combining the yarns in the production of the +fabric. Evidently, in these two last styles of mixtures, exact +analysis of the colourings, both as to quantities and hues, is quite +feasible, but in the first kind the proportions, as well as the +precise colours, are difficult to acquire.</p> + +<p>59. <i>Simple Blends.</i>—The most economical species of mixtures +belonging to this class is that obtained by combining any one +colour with white. Mixtures of this kind may be defined as +tinted wools, for the process of production exactly coincides +with that of forming tints with pigments. They differ, however, +from the latter in appearance. A tint obtained by mixing +red with white, for example, constitutes quite an even surface +of pink; but mix white and red wools in similar quantities, +and something more than a rose compound is produced, namely, +a mottled, intermingled colouring, whether seen in the material, +yarn, or piece. Equal quantities of blue and white, green and +white, and orange and white wools, all form colourings streaked +with their composing hues. It will be evident that this class +of colour amalgamation opens up a wide field for investigation. +First, there is the range of colours with which white +may be associated, comprising both positive and tempered hues +of a primary, secondary, and tertiary character. Second, there +is the considerable diversity of proportions in which the elements +forming the mixtures may be combined; for either the white +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_71">[Pg 71]</span> +or colour may preponderate, or the two shades may be equally +mixed. In addition to these mixtures, which are of the most +elementary class, there are those resulting from blending black +with other colours, and from compounding materials of two +or more colours. The two former kinds are utilized in the +manufacture of yarns for serge dress textures, for which +fabrics they are particularly well adapted. The tints and shades +on <a href="#plate04">Plates <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a> and + <a href="#plate06"><abbr title="Six">VI.</abbr></a> illustrate the results obtained by this +scheme of blending. In combining wools, however, or other +materials, though the same proportionate quantities of tinting +and toning elements were used as in forming these examples, +still compounds of a somewhat different character would ensue, +arising from the colour factors being of a fibrous character.</p> + +<p>60. <i>Blends of Wools and Pigments Compared.</i>—It is important +that the dissimilarity between wool and pigment +mixtures should be thoroughly understood; for it will be +quite evident from the nature of these substances that, though +in each the same quantities of similar colours were blended, +yet the resulting compositions would be characterized by many +features of difference. To these reference will next be made. +When two or more shades of wools are amalgamated, each +colour—however well the materials are grouped and intermingled +in scribbling, carding, and spinning—retains its individuality +of hue, which, of course, is opposed to the law of +pigment combinations, in which all traces of the original colours, +as separate hues, disappear by admixture. Still, when fibrous +materials are associated, a sort of new shade, streaked more +or less with its composing elements, is obtained. For example, +a species of bluish-fawn mixture would result from blending +wools as follows:⁠—</p> + +<table class="autotable"> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">9</td> + <td class="tdl">parts</td> + <td class="tdc">of</td> + <td class="tdl">dark brown.</td> + <td class="tdr">6</td> + <td class="tdl">parts</td> + <td class="tdc">of</td> + <td class="tdl">fawn.</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">4</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">pale blue.</td> + <td class="tdr">4</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">green.</td> +</tr> +</table> + +<p class="unindent">But while the resultant composition in this example might be +designated a kind of fawn, yet, if it should be closely examined, +the brown, pale blue, and green would be discovered, which +give bloom and saturation of tone to the whole shade. Providing +the same elements were mixed in pigments, they would +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_72">[Pg 72]</span> +yield quite a different result. In only one particular would +it correspond to its wool contemporary—it would be a fawn +shade; more murky and dingy, however, and scarcely recognizable +as being composed of exactly the same colours in like +proportions. When paints are mixed, all colours, as individual +hues, are totally obliterated, hence a shade is formed in this +instance in which the green and blue can hardly be distinguished, +the brown and fawn with which they are associated +largely neutralizing their effect.</p> + +<p>Of course their presence is perceivable, but not to the same +degree as in wool mixtures, for the simple reason that, whereas +in this latter instance, the fibres of blue and green are mixed +and grouped with those of brown and fawn, and the four +colours in association form a brownish-fawn mixture, tinted +with each of its colour elements, in the case of pigments the +particles of various colourings entirely disappear, and combine +to constitute a perfectly new shade of somewhat indescribable +qualities. It follows that, in one sense, fibrous blends of colours +are more effective than those of pigments, for they not only +possess the nature of new shades, but the several hues of which +they are composed are kept unchanged, enhancing the beauty +and intensity of the whole combination. Each colour of +filament remains, and is traceable in the mixture as a separate +hue, and thus a pleasing and attractive compound is obtained; +one, moreover, only producible by blending different colours +of fibrous materials. These effects are alone seen in woven +textures, and in that class of fabrics in which the colours +have been blended prior to weaving or in the carding operations. +Should twist yarns be employed instead of various +hues of fibres, a more patchy colouring results (see Pattern 2, +<a href="#plate07b">Plate <abbr title="Seven">VII.</abbr></a>); one, indeed, in which the colour factors are more +prominently separated, and hence devoid of those qualities of +neatness and softness invariably associated with mixtures produced +in the processes of scribbling, carding, and spinning. +Passing to mixtures got in the loom by self-coloured yarns, a +still further divergence from a one-shade mixture, resulting from +blending several colours, is obtained; for here the several tints +employed remain quite detached and distinct. Undoubtedly, +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_73">[Pg 73]</span> +in woven fabrics, the most elegant style of mixture is that +secured by combining the colours in the material form, or in +mixing them in the production of the thread; which method +produces a promiscuous shade, tinted, freshened, and brightened +with every element of colour entering into its composition; and +which constitutes, moreover, quite an evenly-balanced colouring.</p> + +<p>61. <i>Modes of Testing Compositions of Colours.</i>—Two methods +of testing the effect of combining different shades may be +practised. First, the most handy system consists in mixing +various colours of pigments. Although it is barely possible to +represent in this manner the precise result any compound of +shades would have in textile materials when scribbled, carded, +and spun into yarn, still a fairly accurate idea of the tone +and general aspect of a mixture of tints may thus be arrived +at. Tests of this kind also serve another purpose—they foster +a taste for colouring, and develop the faculty of judging the +depth and brilliance of the tone and tint of mixtures in +general. This method of testing new sets of colours for +mixtures is important. The pigments should be used in solution, +which, for convenience, may be kept in small bottles, so +that, in mixing, the minutest quantities can be readily and +accurately measured off. When thus working with liquid +colours, in order to properly test any group of shades, a +surface should first be prepared of the principal colour in the +mixture. Should this be black, brown, or any other dark +colour, it will be necessary to mix the bright colours with +white. After the body of the mixture—that is, in this instance, +the black or dark brown—has been obtained, the whole should +be completed by stippling on to it the other colours in +succession, care being exercised not to apply a new colour +before that previously used has become perfectly dry. Let an +illustration be considered. A mixture of colours which it is +required to put through this test is compounded thus:⁠—</p> + +<table> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">4</td> + <td class="tdl pad6">parts</td> + <td class="tdc">of</td> + <td class="tdl pad6">black.</td> + <td class="tdr pad1">2</td> + <td class="tdl pad6">parts</td> + <td class="tdc">of</td> + <td class="tdl pad6">medium green.</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">3</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl pad6">scarlet.</td> + <td class="tdr pad1">1</td> + <td class="tdl pad6">part</td> + <td class="tdc">of</td> + <td class="tdl pad6">white.</td> +</tr> +</table> + +<p>The first process would be to prepare the black surface, +employing for the purpose four parts from the bottle containing +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_74">[Pg 74]</span> +this pigment in the liquid form. After this has been done, +the scarlet, which requires to be first mixed with white, would be +stippled over the black, leaving intervals or small patches of the +black ground uncoloured. The scarlet dried, two parts of green +would be similarly added, and lastly one part of white. In each +addition of colour minute spaces should be left of black, and +when the last tint has been applied, there should be distinct +streaks of the several colours, the black, of course, largely preponderating. +If this routine is carefully observed, almost any +variety and proportions of colours may be represented. Necessarily +there is an absence in the blend thus acquired of that +mingled colouring so characteristic of wool mixtures, but still +the result is sufficiently accurate to enable the colourist to +form a just conception of the value of any shade composition.</p> + +<p>Now for the second method of experimenting with colour +elements in the origination of new mixtures. Here, wools are +used; small hand cards being constructed for the purpose. +This is obviously the best system when the exact shades of +wools can be acquired, but this is often both difficult and +expensive. Where the spinning of mixture yarns is a speciality, +it is, however, advantageous to have a small stock of wools in +as many shades as possible, which the colourist can have +access to and blend in any proportion his ingenuity may +suggest.⁠<a id="FNanchor_11_11" href="#Footnote_11_11" class="fnanchor">[11]</a> In adopting this practical system of experimenting, +the several colours selected for combination ought first to be +compared on a convenient surface, preferably black, and then +the quantities of the separate tints determined upon. This +accomplished, mixing would follow, which consists of placing +the various samples on the wire of two hand cards, and then +passing the teeth of one card between those of its companion +till the filaments have become as perfectly mingled as if the +work of mixing had been effected by the scribbling and +carding operation. Assuming, for the purpose of illustration, +the colours selected to be brown, blue, fawn, and sage-green, +and the proportions as follows: 3 parts of brown to 1 +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_75">[Pg 75]</span> +part of each of the remaining shades, then, providing the +quantities have been weighed off, the several shades would +be combined and mixed by the process just described. Care +must be exercised not to overload the cards, or blending will +only be imperfectly accomplished. Concluding that “carding” +has been satisfactorily effected, a compound shade of a slatish +or smokish class will be the result, which will contain visible +traces of all the colour elements of its composition, namely, +of brown, blue, fawn, and sage-green.</p> + +<p>Both the “pigment” and the “fibrous” systems of experimenting +with colour for blending purposes should be extensively +practised. The former may be adopted with success when wools +are not accessible, while the latter gives a result identical in +every respect to that acquired in manufacturing operations.</p> + +<p>62. <i>Mixtures composed of Two Shades.</i>—These are of three +kinds; first, those in which white is a factor; second, those in +which black is used; and third, those in which two fancy colours, +other than black or white, are combined, as brown and lavender, +purple and gold, and tan and drab. Mixtures of this kind may +not only be economically produced, but are simple and neat in +composition. Many of them are largely used in the production +of both woollen and worsted yarns, and are produced in light, +medium, and dark shades. In textures where a neat effect is +requisite, they make most satisfactory combinations. Still, they +lack diversity of tint; and, as compared with blends containing +a larger assortment of colours, they are characterized by tameness. +Of course their degree of freshness and lustre is proportionate +to the brightness of the hues amalgamated. If these +are washy and murky, the resulting combination will be +unsatisfactory. While it is impossible to enumerate all the +colours suitable for this species of blending, yet it may be +remarked that one of the hues should, at any rate, possess bloom +and force of tone; not necessarily harshness of hue, but fulness +of tint and definite emphasis of shade, in order that it may be +capable of affording colour character to the mixture in which it +is used. Such colours as claret, maroon, deep purple, russet, +chocolate, tan, warm olive, full-toned drab, blue, and green drab, +are appropriate for this purpose.</p> + +<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_76">[Pg 76]</span> +63. <i>Compounds of Two Colours in which White is used.</i>—Blends +of this class are both numerous and important. They are +of many tones, depths, and intensities. Three illustrations are +given on <a href="#plate13">Plate <abbr title="Thirteen">XIII.</abbr></a>, comprising light and medium compositions. +The first specimen (<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 1) results from mixing 3 parts of +white with 1 of brown; the second (<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 2) is composed of 3 parts +of fawn and 2 of white; and the third (<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 3) consists of 3 +parts of reddish purple and 1 of white. In the first and last of +these mixtures the proportions are the same, but in the former, +white is the prevailing, and brown the subordinate tint, while +in the latter, lavender is the main element, and white simply the +secondary factor of the blend. This leads to the consideration +that in forming such mixtures it is imperative to determine, in +the first place, whether white or the colour element, whatever +that may be, is to preponderate in the mixture about to be +produced. Having decided upon this point, some calculation +should be made as to the extent in which one element is to be +overpowered by the other. The illustrations will assist us in the +solution of this problem. Starting with the brown and white +combination, it is quite apparent that, in this instance, it has +been sought to acquire an effect of a light character, one, in a +word, just tinged or toned with a brownish element. As a +consequence, white should preponderate, but the point arises to +what degree. If the proportions were four parts of brown to +one part of white, the mixture would be too pale; if three parts +of white and two parts of brown were combined, the mixture +would assume a dark cast, for the brown element would be too +potent; hence the proportions from which the illustration has +been obtained are the most appropriate for producing a light-shaded +compound. Results of this kind can only be arrived at +by experiment. Theory merely expounds the principles of the +art, practice alone can illustrate and verify them. With pigments, +the reader may acquire much useful and reliable knowledge +of these combinations; or by dyeing for himself in a small vessel +a number of different shades, which is no difficult task, and +using the hand cards alluded to in a previous paragraph, he +may become a competent and skilful combiner of fancy shades +for mixture yarns. +</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp49" id="plate13" style="max-width: 20.5625em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/plate13.jpg" alt="Blend of wools"> + <figcaption style="color: blue;"> + <p>Plate <abbr title="Thirteen">XIII</abbr><br> + <span class="allsmcap">BLENDS OF COLOURED WOOLS</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_77">[Pg 77]</span> +64. <i>Illustrations in Mixtures composed of White and a +Second Colour.</i>—Mixture 3, <a href="#plate13">Plate <abbr title="Thirteen">XIII.</abbr></a>, is compounded of reddish +purple and white. It is suitable for either worsted or woollen +yarns intended for dress goods made in the plain weave or in +the simple twill. It also forms a yarn capable of giving good +results when blended with Mixture 1 of the same Plate. Stripes +and check patterns formed of these two mixtures, make very +neat and attractive styles. The pinky aspect of Mixture 3 +causes it to be applicable to textures for ladies’ costumes, in +which brightness and warmth of colouring are often a valuable +acquisition to the fabric. The white beautifully softens the red +purple, the two shades in union, and in the proportions rendered, +forming a satisfactory mixture.</p> + +<p>The remaining sample in these mixtures (<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 2, <a href="#plate13">Plate <abbr title="Thirteen">XIII.</abbr></a>) +is the most suitable for tweeds, yet considered. As a compound +shade, it possesses many excellent features for both summer and +autumn styles. Here, as already stated, white is the minor +element of the composition. While in the two preceding +examples it predominates, here it simply acts as a tinting factor +which gives softness and mellowness to the green drab forming +the bulk of the mixture. The utility of white for this purpose +is thus clearly seen.</p> + +<p>Below are furnished some additional examples in this description +of mixtures:⁠—</p> + +<p class="indent35"><abbr title="One">I.</abbr></p> +<p class="p0 unindent indent20">3 parts of light bluish drab.<br> +1 part of white.</p> + +<p class="indent35"><abbr title="Two">II.</abbr></p> +<p class="p0 unindent indent20">3 parts of tan.<br> +1 part of white.</p> + +<p class="indent35"><abbr title="Three">III.</abbr></p> +<p class="p0 unindent indent20">3 parts of olive brown.<br> +1 part of white.</p> + +<p class="indent35"><abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></p> +<p class="p0 unindent indent20">3 parts of slatish fawn.<br> +1 part of white.</p> + +<p class="indent35"><abbr title="Five">V.</abbr></p> +<p class="p0 unindent indent20">2 parts of deep chocolate brown.<br> +2 parts of white.</p> + +<p class="indent35"><abbr title="Six">VI.</abbr></p> +<p class="p0 unindent indent20">4 parts of chocolate.<br> +1 part of white.</p> + +<p class="indent35"><abbr title="Seven">VII.</abbr></p> +<p class="p0 unindent indent20">6 parts of white.<br> +4 parts of deep slatish blue.</p> + +<p class="indent35"><abbr title="Eight">VIII.</abbr></p> +<p class="p0 unindent indent20">3 parts of white.<br> +2 parts of fawn. +</p> + +<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_78">[Pg 78]</span> +<abbr title="Numbers">Nos.</abbr> <abbr title="One">I.</abbr>, <abbr title="Two">II.</abbr>, and <abbr title="Three">III.</abbr> are specially suitable for yarns employed +in the manufacture of dress and other thin fabrics of a bright +and cheerful tone. <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr> is an interesting compound after +the nature of <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 2, <a href="#plate13">Plate <abbr title="Thirteen">XIII.</abbr></a>, but deeper and stronger in cast. +Such mixtures are most useful in the production of fancy tweeds +and woollen and worsted textures intended for men’s wear. +Blends <abbr title="Five">V.</abbr> and <abbr title="Six">VI.</abbr> are also appropriate for tweed goods. +They are both of a brownish character, but the latter is the +darker and more pronounced in tone. <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> <abbr title="Seven">VII.</abbr> might be +defined as a slatish blue mixture. It makes a good fancy yarn, +and, in fine worsted, a thread suitable for thin fabrics for +costumes. The last of these combinations possesses a very +mellow appearance. The fawn is a shade between olive and +brown, approaching a species of tan. By altering the proportions +to three parts of fawn and one part of white, an excellent +mixture results, which might be used in combination with <abbr title="Number Eight">No. +VIII.</abbr> in the production of checks and stripes and a large diversity +of other patterns.</p> + +<p>65. <i>Mixtures composed of Black and another Colour.</i>—These, +if anything, have a more extensive application than the mixtures +just alluded to, and are probably more diversified in composition +and colouring. They are largely employed in the production of +yarns for dark and medium-shaded goods. As the illustrations +furnished on <a href="#plate13">Plate <abbr title="Thirteen">XIII.</abbr></a> indicate, many useful combinations +may be obtained on this method. The first example (<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 4, +<a href="#plate13">Plate <abbr title="Thirteen">XIII.</abbr></a>) that may be considered, is a russet-brown mixture. +Probably, the russet is a degree too warm, but, for some purposes, +the blend is all that could be desired. Bloom, mellowness of +cast, and rich fulness of tint are its chief characteristics. As a +tweed mixture produced by using two colour factors, it is +invaluable. It contrasts with the following mixture, <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 5 of +the same Plate, which results from blending one part of black +with one part of light olive. The olive used is more drab than +orange, and in association with the black assumes a greenish +cast. By combining yarns made of this mixture with yarns +made of the preceding mixture, some good patterns might be +produced, simple, but neat in composition; the streaks of russet +in the one harmonizing and contrasting with the filaments of +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_79">[Pg 79]</span> +olive in the other. The qualities of bloom and warmth lacked +by this latter example are possessed by the russet blend, while +the mellow characteristic of the olive mixture, when associated +with the russet, yields a compound colouring of tasteful +properties.</p> + +<p>But one further illustration, <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 6, + <a href="#plate13">Plate <abbr title="Thirteen">XIII.</abbr></a>, in this species +of blend calls for description, namely, a black and fawn combination +in which fawn is the principal hue. It is illustrative +of the diversity of effect that may be acquired by mixing two +colour elements. As the fawn composes the bulk of the blend, +it possesses, when viewed at some distance, a brownish tone, but +on closer examination the small flakes of fawn colouring assume +a rich bloom as well as a soft, mellow aspect.</p> + +<p>Other examples in this style of mixture, not illustrated, may +be briefly described, the colourings of which are:⁠—</p> + +<table> +<tr> +<td class="tdc pad4" colspan="3"><abbr title="One">I.</abbr></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">5</td> +<td class="tdc pad6">parts of</td> +<td class="tdl">black.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">2</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">tan.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdc pad4" colspan="3"><abbr title="two">II.</abbr></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">1</td> +<td class="tdc pad6">part of</td> +<td class="tdl">black.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">1</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">tan.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdc pad4" colspan="3"><abbr title="three">III.</abbr></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">6</td> +<td class="tdc pad6">parts of</td> +<td class="tdl">black.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">3</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">bluish green.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdc pad4" colspan="3"><abbr title="four">IV.</abbr></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">4</td> +<td class="tdc">parts of</td> +<td class="tdl">black.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">5</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">dark purple.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdc pad4" colspan="3"><abbr title="five">V.</abbr></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">3</td> +<td class="tdc">parts of</td> +<td class="tdl">black.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">2</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">sage green.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdc pad4" colspan="3"><abbr title="six">VI.</abbr></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">4</td> +<td class="tdc">parts of</td> +<td class="tdl">black.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">3</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">drabbish fawn.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdc pad4" colspan="3"><abbr title="seven">VII.</abbr></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">4</td> +<td class="tdc">parts of</td> +<td class="tdl">black.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">1</td> +<td class="tdc">part of</td> +<td class="tdl">lilac (medium shade).</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdc pad4" colspan="3"><abbr title="eight">VIII.</abbr></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">6</td> +<td class="tdc">parts of</td> +<td class="tdl">black.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">1</td> +<td class="tdc">part of</td> +<td class="tdl">rose pink.</td> +</tr> +</table> + +<p>Combinations <abbr title="One">I.</abbr> and <abbr title="Two">II.</abbr> are quite dark. The former is a +warmish, and the latter a somewhat cool colouring. Yarns from +these two mixtures harmonize well when associated in the same +pattern. The tan used in <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> <abbr title="One">I.</abbr> + is similar to <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 3, <a href="#plate04">Plate <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a>, +and the bluish green to <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 2, + <a href="#plate06">Plate <abbr title="Six">VI.</abbr></a>, but rather more blue in +tone. Mixture <abbr title="Two">II.</abbr> is a medium colouring, suitable for suitings +and the general run of fancy tweeds. Warmth, freshness, and +lustre are its main and characterizing elements. <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr> is a +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_80">[Pg 80]</span> +unique colouring. It forms an admirable dark thread. A fabric +in which the warp is composed of yarns made of this mixture +and woven with yarn from Blend <abbr title="One">I.</abbr> is an excellent combination +of tints. Mixtures <abbr title="Five">V.</abbr> and <abbr title="Six">VI.</abbr> are both of a medium tone. <abbr title="Number Five">No. +V.</abbr> is rather dull in tone as compared with <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> <abbr title="Six">VI.</abbr>, but both are +useful colourings. Blends <abbr title="Seven">VII.</abbr> and <abbr title="Eight">VIII.</abbr> are of a different +character. In these examples the colour element is small, but +comparatively light and lustrous in tint. The object has been +to obtain a black composition just streaked with filaments of a +bright shade.

The colours generally used for +this purpose are very deep purple, rich blue, and red purple. +The quantities of such hues are small, but sufficient to impart +freshness of tone or lustre to the mixture. Blue is used +chiefly in brightening light greys. For example, a much +fresher light grey is formed by the following proportions than +if black and white were alone used: 6 parts of white, 4 parts +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_82">[Pg 82]</span> +of black, and 1 part of blue. Though the blue only constitutes +one-eleventh of the mixture, still it imparts freshness. An +excellent medium grey, warmed with reddish purple, can be +secured thus: 8 parts of black, 4 parts of white, and 3 parts +of red purple. Deep purple is one of the most suitable hues for +dark greys, as it possesses both the qualities of warmth and +lustre, and is a most potent hue. Two examples follow in which +it is used with satisfactory results:⁠—</p> + +<table> +<tr> +<td class="tdc pad4" colspan="3"><abbr title="One">I.</abbr></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">6</td> +<td class="tdc pad6">parts of</td> +<td class="tdl">black.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">2</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">deep purple.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">1</td> +<td class="tdc pad6">part of</td> +<td class="tdl">white.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdc pad4" colspan="3"><abbr title="Two">II.</abbr></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">3</td> +<td class="tdc pad6">parts of</td> +<td class="tdl">black.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">3</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">white.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">2</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">deep purple.</td> +</tr> +</table> + +<p>Both these mixtures possess richness and depth of tone, and +are preferable to the common greys insomuch as they are +fuller, more lustrous, and mellower in composition; <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> <abbr title="One">I.</abbr> is a +dark, and <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> <abbr title="Two">II.</abbr> a medium shade.</p> + +<p>68. <i>Coloured Greys.</i>—Mixtures of this kind are mainly compounded +of black and white, but the colouring element introduced +may be so potent in hue as to impart quite a tinted aspect +to the shade. It will be sufficient for the purposes of illustration, +to treat of mixtures of this class in which red, blue, yellow, +orange, green, and purple, or the primary and secondary hues, +are used as the tinting factors. It is very rarely that more than +one colour is employed in the same blend, as the examples given +will show. Four standard coloured greys, in which red is the +tinting element, are as follows:⁠—</p> + +<table> +<tr> +<td class="tdc pad4" colspan="3"><abbr title="One">I.</abbr></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">1</td> +<td class="tdc pad6">part of</td> +<td class="tdl">black.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">1</td> +<td class="tdc pad6">„</td> +<td class="tdl">white.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">1</td> +<td class="tdc pad6">„</td> +<td class="tdl">red.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdc pad4" colspan="3"><abbr title="Two">II.</abbr></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">2</td> +<td class="tdc pad6">parts of</td> +<td class="tdl">black.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">1</td> +<td class="tdc pad6">part of</td> +<td class="tdl">white.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">1</td> +<td class="tdc pad6">„</td> +<td class="tdl">red.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdc pad4" colspan="3"><abbr title="Three">III.</abbr></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">2</td> +<td class="tdc pad6">parts of</td> +<td class="tdl">white.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">1</td> +<td class="tdc pad6">part of</td> +<td class="tdl">black.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">1</td> +<td class="tdc pad6">„</td> +<td class="tdl">red.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdc pad4" colspan="3"><abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">2</td> +<td class="tdc pad6">parts of</td> +<td class="tdl">red.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">1</td> +<td class="tdc pad6">part of</td> +<td class="tdl">black.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">1</td> +<td class="tdc pad6">„</td> +<td class="tdl">white.</td> +</tr> +</table> + +<p>These proportions, giving typical results, will be adopted +throughout the exposition of these mixtures; that is to say, when +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_83">[Pg 83]</span> +the tinting element is changed to blue or orange, the same +quantities will be combined as in those furnished in the above +examples.</p> + +<p>In <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 1 the shades are blended in equal proportions, hence +there is no tint preponderating in the resultant mixture, +which is a species of brownish grey, neat in composition, and +one that is useful in textile designing. Black predominates in +Mixture <abbr title="Two">II.</abbr>, resulting in the production of a more appropriate +shade than that formed by <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> <abbr title="One">I.</abbr> for autumn and winter +cloths. Referring to <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> <abbr title="Three">III.</abbr>—white is the chief element, hence +a medium compound shade is acquired: somewhat pinky in +appearance, owing to the entrance of white and scarlet into the +blend, but still the whole is toned and increased in depth of +composition by the admixture of black. It is, on account of +its richness, more suitable for yarns for dress fabrics than for +heavy goods for men’s wear. The same remark applies to +Mixture <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr>, in which red is the preponderating hue. But +this is a bright and cheerful colouring, and one that makes an +excellent fancy yarn. These reddish-grey mixtures all form +valuable shades for winter styles, as they are decidedly cheerful +and warm in aspect, and produce a kind of pattern both bright +and comfortable in character.</p> + +<p>Grey, in conjunction with yellow, forms a species of drab +mixture, which finds appropriate use in the manufacture of +summer textures. Taking the same order of mixing as furnished +in the red greys, the following results are obtained:⁠—</p> + +<table> +<tr> +<td class="tdc pad4" colspan="3"><abbr title="Five">V.</abbr></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">1</td> +<td class="tdc pad6">part of</td> +<td class="tdl">black.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">1</td> +<td class="tdc pad6">„</td> +<td class="tdl">white.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">1</td> +<td class="tdc pad6">„</td> +<td class="tdl">yellow.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdc pad4" colspan="3"><abbr title="Six">VI.</abbr></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">2</td> +<td class="tdc pad6">parts of</td> +<td class="tdl">black.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">1</td> +<td class="tdc pad6">part of</td> +<td class="tdl">white.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">1</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">yellow.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdc pad4" colspan="3"><abbr title="Seven">VII.</abbr></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">2</td> +<td class="tdc pad6">parts of</td> +<td class="tdl">white.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">1</td> +<td class="tdc pad6">part of</td> +<td class="tdl">black.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">1</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">yellow.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdc pad4" colspan="3"><abbr title="Eight">VIII.</abbr></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">2</td> +<td class="tdc pad6">parts of</td> +<td class="tdl">yellow.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">1</td> +<td class="tdc pad6">part of</td> +<td class="tdl">black.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">1</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">white.</td> +</tr> +</table> + +<p>The equal quantities constitute quite a drab blend. In this +example there is first the association of the black and white +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_84">[Pg 84]</span> +elements constituting mid grey, which receives additional lustre +from co-mixture with yellow, which tinges the whole composition +a drabbish olive. An agreeable variation may be made by +employing a bright tan in the place of yellow. On allowing +the black element to preponderate, as in <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> <abbr title="Six">VI.</abbr> blend, a much +darker result is attained, one, however, in which the olive cast +is preserved, though the bulk of the composition is dark grey. +A pleasing mixture ensues when white (<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> <abbr title="Seven">VII.</abbr> blend) is +made the maximum element. It is soft and bright in colouring, +and of extensive utility in the production of fancy yarns and +fine worsted textures. Perhaps when yellow is the main shade +(<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> <abbr title="Eight">VIII.</abbr> blend) the cast of the mixture assumes a too ochre-like +aspect, but the yarn resulting from this composition has +nevertheless its specific province in woven design.</p> + +<p>Black and white mixed with blue form a valuable series of +mixtures, more or less applicable to all classes of fancy goods. +When the quantities of the several shades are equal (1 part +black, 1 white, 1 blue), the mixture formed is of a peacock blue +tone, streaked with grey. This mixture may be applied both as +a fancy and as a ground shade, according to the texture being +produced. Increasing the black (2 parts of black, 1 white, and +1 blue) results in the formation of a dark bluish grey, applicable +to a large variety of fabrics. By giving preponderance to +the white (2 parts of white, 1 black, and 1 blue), a slatish blue +grey is obtained, which, in combination with certain brown +mixtures, is capable of forming elegantly coloured patterns. +When the blue element is the principal hue (2 parts of blue, +1 black, and 1 white), the mid grey, constituting one-half of +the compound, assumes a mellow, quiet blue tone, making a +mixture specially appropriate for goods, in which cheerful but +soft colouring is an important feature of the design.</p> + +<p>It is evident, from these examples, that a wide field of +colouring is opened up in the admixture of black and white with +the primary colours. In the illustrations considered, only four +sets of proportions have been dealt with, but by multiplying +these it will be obvious that an endless diversity of results, even +with these five shades—black, white, red, yellow, and blue—can +feasibly be acquired. But when it is taken into account that +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_85">[Pg 85]</span> +other hues besides those named are used in combination with +black and white, it will at once be seen that the possibilities of +this preliminary method of combining colours for textile work are +largely increased. The subject cannot be followed further than +the secondary colours at this stage: these, in conjunction with +the primary combinations just described, will give a fairly comprehensive +view of the styles of compound shades obtained in +practice by this system.</p> + +<p>In the first place, allusion may be made to the admixture of +orange with black and white. Should the quantities be equal +(1 part black, 1 white, and 1 orange), a drabbish grey is produced, +a degree warmer in hue than if yellow were the colouring factor. +On doubling the quantity of the black element (2 parts black, 1 +white, and 1 orange) a greyish olive mixture tinged with a +reddish tone is formed; while a light fawn mixture is produced +if the white preponderates (2 white, 1 black, and 1 orange). +A tannish grey composition, suitable for fancy yarns, results +from the proportionate quantities being 2 parts of orange, 1 part +of black, and 1 part of white.</p> + +<p>Green, when associated with black and white on this system, +does not constitute mixtures well adapted for yarns for fabrics +of a heavy description, but yields compounds useful in the +decoration of dress and other thin textures. These blends +partake of a species of mellow, mingled, greenish grey. Such +blends are more pleasing to the eye in woven fabrics than solid +green, possessing a softer, quieter, and a more satisfactory tone. +Beginning with white, black, and green, equally compounded, a +mixture is obtained that may be appropriately described as a +slatish green, the grey element imparting to the blend a rich +mellow cast. By increasing the black factor (2 black, 1 white, +and 1 green), the slatish tone is augmented, because it is due +to the association of this shade with the green element of the +blend. As black is, in this instance, the principal shade, the +mixture, while mellow and greenish, is decidedly deep and full +in tone. The employment of white as the leading shade (2 +parts of white, 1 black, and 1 green) yields an interesting combination +between a pea and a slate green. If the yarn made +from this mixture, were associated in the same pattern with +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_86">[Pg 86]</span> +that resulting from blend <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> <abbr title="Three">III.</abbr> of the red series, an exquisite +assortment of tints would be obtained. It is by blending the +yarn product of one combination with that of others that +attractive colourings are arrived at. When the proportions +are 2 parts of green, 1 part of black, and 1 part of white, the +compound has too greenish a cast to be of extensive use in +textile designing, hence this mixture is chiefly used in the form +of a fancy or lively thread.</p> + +<p>Allusion has now only to be made to the purple-grey combinations. +First, when the proportions are 1 part of black, +1 part of white, and 1 part of purple, a distinctly purple grey +is produced, owing to the extraordinary potency and diffusiveness +of this secondary. Making black the predominant +factor, a more useful compound from a textile standpoint is +acquired; perhaps slatish in cast, but, nevertheless, warm and +cheerful in tint. Should white preponderate, a pure slatish grey, +just tinged with the warm, lustrous hue of purple, ensues. These +two last combinations, in addition to the mixture resulting from +compounding 2 parts of purple, 1 part of black, and 1 part of +white, are chiefly useful in the form of fancy threads. If purple +is employed in grey mixtures, for tweeds, and other medium and +heavy textures, it must be in lesser proportions than here given, +indeed on the principle indicated in the examples supplied in +<a href="#para66">Paragraph 66</a>.</p> + +<p>Many other colours besides the primaries and the secondaries +are blended with black and white in the production of mixture +yarns, but the illustrations that have been treated of, will enable +the reader to arrive at methods of combining other tints or +shades, than those supplied in these mixtures—the most useful +of all compound shades—namely, light, medium, and dark +greys.</p> + +<p>69. <i>Two-Colour Mixtures.</i>—Next to the series of blends obtained +by combining black or white with another colour, mixtures resulting +from associating two colour elements are the most +commonly produced. In addition to being the least costly of all +fancy mixtures, into which black and white are not imported, +they are neat, simple, and elegant in composition. Examples are +given in <abbr title="Numbers">Nos.</abbr> 7, 8, and 9, + <a href="#plate13">Plate <abbr title="Thirteen">XIII.</abbr></a> The first is compounded +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_87">[Pg 87]</span> +of 3 parts of bright brown and 2 parts of lavender; the second +of 4 parts of claret and 1 part of gold; and the third of 3 parts +of tan and 1 part of drab. In mixtures of this class, one shade +should always be chosen for constituting the bulk of the compound; +and this, of course, should be of such a character as to +be suitable for application to fabrics intended for wearing purposes. +Turning to these examples, it will be seen that shades of +this kind have been adopted as the principal factors, for in one +instance, dark brown is the body colour, in another claret, and in +the third instance, tan. So that this law of using a comparatively +mellow and unostentatious colour for the bulk of the combination +has, in this type of mixtures, almost universal application. +Alluding specially to the brown-and-lavender blend, the object +here has been to secure an intermingled shade of rather more +than medium depth. Both colours are prominent, yet they +constitute quite a new shade of recognized utility in textile +manufacturing. In the claret-and-gold mixture, claret largely +predominates, and imparts depth and body of tone to the resulting +compound. The function of the gold-coloured fibres is +essentially to brighten and freshen the whole. The last example +is quite a distinct species, having no common elements with the +two preceding, beyond the fact that it only contains two factors +of colouring, tan and drab. As these shades are more or less +allied in hue, the mixture acquired by combining them is slightly +wanting in diversity of tinting; yet it is a style of blend admirably +adapted for producing fancy yarns for light goods in +woollen materials. Two shades of brown, blue and slate, and +olive and drab, similarly blended, would all form creditable +mixtures. Some of the Bannockburn blends only contain two +colours, though apparently full of variety of tinting. The +peculiar nature of the wool fibre substantially contributes to the +richness and elegance of these two-colour compounds.</p> + +<p>70. <i>Multi-Shade Mixtures.</i>—The general principles of the art +of blending have now been explained, and it is not needful to +treat extensively of the remaining kinds of mixtures. By the +aid of further illustrations, the methods of combining any +reasonable number of colours in the constitution of “stock” for +fancy yarns, may be indicated. First, consider the claret-brown +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_88">[Pg 88]</span> +blend given in <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 10, + <a href="#plate13">Plate <abbr title="Thirteen">XIII.</abbr></a>, and composed of 4 parts of +claret, 1 part of drab, and 1 part of gold. The colours combined +not only harmonize when mixed, but also when separated. If +any one of the colours were removed, the combination would be +incomplete, showing the perfect union of the tints selected. +Should four colours be blended, increased freshness and lustre of +combination may be acquired, as is instanced by <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 11, which +consists of 4 parts of black, 2 parts of drab, 1 part of scarlet, and +1 part of white. As in the previous example, a dark shade is +here employed for the bulk of the mixture, the other tints combining +to impart brightness to the whole colouring. The touch +of scarlet is very appropriate, giving warmth and tone; the +drab is useful as a filling-in factor, while the black and the white +give that general mellowness which characterizes the whole +blend.

For +many reasons they are not so extensively produced as raw-material +mixtures: thus, they are more costly; they do not +generally yield such elegant effects; and they lack that brilliance +of colouring so universally characteristic of the latter description +of mixtures. The twist used for this purpose includes two-, +three-, and four-ply yarns, and curl, knop, cloud, and other fancy +threads. Black and white twist mixtures in woollen, worsted, +and cotton goods are extremely common. A more marked, and +perhaps more streaky class of effects, is obtained by using these +yarns than by employing mixture threads. If the twists were +of the cloud kind, real spangles, more or less elongated, of black +and white shades would be formed in the woven fabric; whereas +if curl twists were adopted, loops of black and white would be +irregularly spread over the surface of the cloth. Generally, the +most elementary weaves are used in the construction of these +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_90">[Pg 90]</span> +goods, such as the plain make, and the common four-end and +six-end twills. In worsteds, large quantities of these mixtures +are made, the finest of these threads yielding a satisfactory species +of intermingled colouring.</p> + +<p>72. <i>Marls.</i>—A series of grey and coloured mixtures obtained +by the second method of blending (Class C, <a href="#para55">Par. 55</a>) is illustrated +in <a href="#plate14">Plate <abbr title="Fourteen">XIV</abbr></a>. These yarns show the principle of obtaining a +marl mixture worsted thread, after combing and drawing, or in +the operation of roving. An intermediate style of mixture is +thus produced between that due to blending coloured slivers in +drawing, and that due to folding or twisting two or more coloured +yarns into a compound thread. The blending of the coloured +elements is not, on this system, so complete as by the first +method; nor yet are the specks of colour so distinct as in mixture +yarns obtained in twisting. “Marls” made in this way are +combined in stripe and check patterns with similar mixture +yarns developed by doubling or folding.</p> + +<p>The proportionate quantities of black and white in Series A +and A′, and of black and a colour in Series B, B′ are as +follows:⁠—</p> + +<p class="center"> +<span class="smcap">Plate <abbr title="Fourteen">XIV.</abbr></span><br> +<br> +<span class="smcap">Marls, Series A and B.</span> +</p> + +<table class="muchsmaller"> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">Specimen</td> +<td></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr vlt"><abbr title="One">I.</abbr>=</td> +<td class="lefthang">1 black thread twisted with 1 marl thread + =25% white or colour and 75% black.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr vlt"><abbr title="Two">II.</abbr>=</td> +<td class="lefthang">1 black thread twisted with 1 marl thread + =50% white or colour and 50% black.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr vlt"><abbr title="Three">III.</abbr>=</td> +<td class="lefthang">1 black thread twisted with 1 marl thread + =75% white or colour and 25% black.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr vlt"><abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr>=</td> +<td class="lefthang">1 marl = white or colour 25% and black + 75%; twisted with 1 marl thread = 25% white or colour and 75% black.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr vlt"><abbr title="Five">V.</abbr>=</td> +<td class="lefthang">1 white thread twisted with 1 marl thread =25% + white or colour and 75% black.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr vlt"><abbr title="Six">VI.</abbr>=</td> +<td class="lefthang">1 white thread twisted with 1 marl thread =50% + white or colour and 50% black.</td> +</tr> +</table> + +<p class="center"> +<span class="smcap">Marls, Series A1 and B1.</span> +</p> + +<table class="muchsmaller"> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">Specimen</td> +<td></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr vlt"><abbr title="One">I.</abbr> =</td> +<td class="tdl">1 marl thread = white 25%, black 75%; + twisted with 1 marl thread = white 25%, black 75%.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr vlt"><abbr title="Two">II.</abbr> =</td> +<td class="tdl">1 marl thread = white 50%, + black 50%; twisted with 1 marl thread = white 25%, black 75%.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr vlt"><abbr title="Three">III.</abbr> =</td> +<td class="tdl">1 marl thread = white 50%, black 50%; + twisted with 1 marl thread = white 50%, black 50%.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr vlt"><abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr> =</td> +<td class="tdl">1 marl thread = white 75%, black 25%; + twisted with 1 marl thread = white 50%, black 50%.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr vlt"><abbr title="Five">V.</abbr> =</td> +<td class="tdl">1 marl thread = white 75%, black 25%; + twisted with 1 marl thread = white 75%, black 25%.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr vlt"><abbr title="Six">VI.</abbr> =</td> +<td class="tdl">1 white thread twisted with 1 marl thread = white 75%, black 25%.</td> +</tr> +</table> + +<p>In <abbr title="Numbers">Nos.</abbr> <abbr title="One">I.</abbr> to <abbr title="Five">V.</abbr>, Series A′ and B′, each yarn is composed of +two marl threads twisted together, but <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> <abbr title="Six">VI.</abbr> consists of a +white thread twisted with a marl; and in Series A and B, <abbr title="Numbers">Nos.</abbr> +<abbr title="One">I.</abbr>, <abbr title="Two">II.</abbr>, and <abbr title="Three">III.</abbr> are composed of a marl and black: <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr> of +two marls, and <abbr title="Numbers">Nos.</abbr> <abbr title="Five">V.</abbr> and <abbr title="Six">VI.</abbr> of a marl and white. +</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp53" id="plate14" style="max-width: 22.125em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/plate14.jpg" alt="Specimens of Marl yarns"> + <figcaption style="color: blue;"> + <p>Plate <abbr title="fourteen">XIV</abbr><br> + <span class="allsmcap">SPECIMENS OF “MARL” YARNS</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_91">[Pg 91]</span> +73. <i>Weave Mixtures.</i>—These are least manufactured of any of +the three classes of mixtures.

According to the kind of fabric being +produced, the nature of the materials composing it, and its +structural arrangement, the scheme of colouring practised varies. +Suitings, trouserings, mantlings, dresses, vestings, shawls, rugs, +carpets, and other important typical textures, are all coloured on +distinct principles. Worsteds are not treated in a colour sense +precisely on the same system as woollens, nor silks as cottons. +Simple weaves allow of more varied colouring than diagonals +and other intricate crossings; figured designs of a floral or +geometrical character, than those resulting from combining +several small weaves; single-make than double- and treble-make +patterns; ordinary decorative fabrics, than plushes and lenos, +and so on. Yet there are some principles of textile colouring +common to all species of woven design. Certain methods of +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_93">[Pg 93]</span> +grouping yarns in elementary plans of interlacing warp and +weft yield, under all conditions, the same style of effects. As a +well-known combination of lines makes the key pattern, so in +textile designing there are methods of classifying and uniting +shades which cannot but produce one form of pattern. While +in subsequent chapters it will be needful to specialize and indicate +the complex modes of colouring practised by the weaver, +here the general principles of the art will be simply expounded.</p> + +<p>75. <i>Types of Woven Colourings.</i>—All varieties of textile +colourings may be classified under two great heads, which are +capable of subdivision, as in the Table appended.</p> + +<p class="p2 center"><a id="Table_7"></a> +<span class="smcap">Table <abbr title="Seven">VII.</abbr></span><br> +<br> +<span class="smcap">Illustrating the Types of Woven Colourings.</span><br> +<br> +<span class="allsmcap"><abbr title="One">I.</abbr> COLOUR IN SIMPLE AND FANCY WEAVES.</span> +</p> + +<div class="blockquot"> +<p>(<i>A</i>) <i>Single-make Cloths.</i>—Woollen, worsted, cotton, linen, and +silk textures, in plain, twilled, mat, sateen, corkscrew, leno, +diaper, and other weaves.</p> + +<p>(<i>B</i>) <i>Backed, Double, and Compound Cloths.</i>—Effects produced +principally for men’s wear, in both woollen and worsted yarns; +also rugs, travelling maudes, winter mantlings, and blankets.</p> +</div> + +<p class="center allsmcap"> +<abbr title="Two">II.</abbr> COLOUR IN FANCY AND FIGURED PATTERNS. +</p> + +<div class="blockquot"> +<p>(<i>A</i>) <i>Single Fabrics.</i>—Stripes, checks, and drafted patterns for +dresses, mantlings, ulsterings, blouses, and other textures.</p> + +<p>(<i>B</i>) <i>Backed, Double, and Combination Patterns.</i>—Woollen +and worsted patterns for men’s garments; shawls, mantlings, +rugs, “Kidder,” Scotch, and other carpets; also damasks and +decorative fabrics.</p> + +<p>(<i>C</i>) <i>Figured Patterns Coloured in the Weft.</i>—Vestings, dresses, +matelasses, and cords.</p> + +<p>(<i>D</i>) <i>Figured Patterns Coloured in the Warp.</i>—Spotted and +figured styles of various descriptions in simple and complex +makes, fancy dress patterns, mantles, plushes, velvets, astrachans, +and carpets.</p> + +<p>(<i>E</i>) <i>Patterns in which the Figure is developed by both Warp and +Weft Colouring.</i>—Silk and worsted robes, and elaborately ornamented +patterns in an endless diversity of textures and materials.</p> +</div> + +<p class="p2"><span class="pagenum" id="Page_94">[Pg 94]</span> +76. <i>Single-Weave Colourings.</i>—The single-make cloths, named +in Group A of the first class of coloured effects, are textures not +only single in structure, <i>i.e.</i>, not backed, but composed of one +weave of a simple character. Here some of the most elementary +types of textile colouring occur. Many of the patterns produced +in these weaves are due to the arrangement of the shades of the +warp and weft. They form a species of woven design which is +purely technical in construction. The artistic knowledge requisite +to their origination is exercised in the selection and +combination of colours. As regards the elements which give the +pattern its form or outline, these are solely of a technical nature, +and relate to dexterity and ingenuity in the invention of novel +plans of cloth construction, and of applying to such makes those +schemes of colouring which will most effectively develop their +structural composition. This class of textile pattern may be +described as Woven Colour Design, for it is one in which the +all-important principle consists in devising new systems of +shade arrangement and distribution. When considering pattern +as obtained in simple weaves, this feature of design is the +most prominent for examination. Scotch tweeds, as well as +various classes of fancy woollens for suitings, trouserings, and +flannels, some styles of cotton fabrics, and a considerable diversity +of worsted, silk, and linen fabrics, are examples in this style of +pattern. The more or less complex nature of these textiles is +determined by the intricacy of the weave employed, and the +plan of grouping the shades. Irregular makes or crossings, such +as diagonals, fancy twills, diamond and broken weaves, are more +difficult to treat with colour than simple twills and hopsacks. +The comprehensiveness of this type of textile colouring will be +evident when it is mentioned that in the plain weave, and the +cassimere twill, there is practically no limit to the variety of +patterns obtainable in stripes, checks, diagonals, small figures, +mixtures, spotted, and other styles.</p> + +<p>77. <i>Colour in relation to Backed, Double, and Compound +Cloths.</i>—The fabrics named in Section B of Part <abbr title="One">I.</abbr> of <a href="#Table_7">Table <abbr title="Seven">VII.</abbr></a> +are much more intricate in structure than those alluded to in +the previous paragraph, and hence require greater technical skill +in colour treatment. As these cloths are multi-ply in the weft, +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_95">[Pg 95]</span> +in the warp, or in both warp and weft, they can only be +economically and advantageously coloured when their build or +structure is thoroughly understood. The yarns employed in the +composition of the face pattern have to be kept distinct from +those forming the back of the fabric, and <i lang="la">vice versâ</i>. Frequently, +the colouring of the face forms a different style from that on the +back, in which case a combination of at least two principles of +colouring takes place.</p> + +<p>The range of patterns in these makes is very diversified, but +it is confined to a somewhat limited class of goods, as indicated +in the Table. Winter fabrics for men’s and women’s wear are +the principal goods to which these weaves are applied, so that +for climatic reasons light and fancy patterns are only exceptionally +in demand, a fact which somewhat simplifies the application +of colour to these styles. Some heavy tartan travelling rugs +and wraps are also constructed in this type of weave. In the +ordinary backed textures composed of one make on the face, the +patterns are mostly of a simple stripe or check arrangement, but +in rugs and heavy cloths elaborate and complex blends of shades +obtain.</p> + +<p>78. <i>Colour applied to Single-make Figured Fabrics.</i>—These +form the A Group of textures given in Part <abbr title="Two">II.</abbr> of the Table. +In addition to the effect in this instance due to association of +colours, there is design or pattern produced by a combination of +weaves differing in structure or build, and moreover in appearance +in the woven fabric. The weaves may be arranged to form +stripes, checks, and figures. The classes of goods to which these +designs are applied are numerous, including trouserings and +coatings in woollen and worsted yarns, fancy dress goods, mohair, +silk, and other classes of mantlings, ulsterings, silk handkerchiefs, +cotton textures, and decorative fabrics. The principles involved +in this type of textile designing comprise the application of +colour in the development of simple weave effects, and its introduction +into designs composed of several weave elements to give +precision and smartness of figuring. Before colour can be +suitably applied here, its effect on the elementary crossings must +be clearly apprehended. The designs containing various makes, +such arrangements of fancy shades have to be used as will +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_96">[Pg 96]</span> +emphasize exactly the several parts of the whole style, and not +result in the suppression of some sections and in too bold a +development of others. The larger the number of weaves entering +into any single design, the greater the intricacy of colour +application. When colour, in relation to the <i>A</i> Group of fabrics +in the first section of the Table, is understood theoretically and +practically, its functions and scope in this branch of designing +may be readily mastered.</p> + +<p>79. <i>Fancy Shades applied to Backed and Double Weave +Combination Designs.</i>—Winter goods of a figured order for +apparel are included in Group <i>B</i> of the Figured Patterns. This +class of textiles also comprises some styles of shawls, mantlings, +and rugs. Many types of striped trouserings, in which two +double makes occur, come within the scope of this useful group +of textiles. Generally, if the method of colouring is simple, the +combination of weaves is diversified; but should the latter only +comprise a few elements of weaving, more complex schemes of +colouring are requisitioned. This order of patterns, moreover, +includes certain species of textile effect not producible by having +recourse to any other principle of weaving, but those appertaining +to double-cloth combinations. Regarding the style +of figuring feasible, it may be either elementary or elaborate +in arrangement. Every description of ornamentation can be +developed, from the simplest rectangular pattern to the most +fantastic and complex blend of floral and other forms. It is +this feature of this principle of design and colouring which +makes it useful in the production of various kinds of reversible +fabrics—textures figured and wearable on both sides, such as +shawls, Austrian blankets or rugs, and carpets. Yet while the +application of colour to these designs may yield these elaborate +loom productions, the same scheme of colouring applied to the +identical type of weave designs, may give such patterns as +obtain in fancy trouserings, suitings, mantlings, and ulsterings +of infinite variety of style. The structure and weave composition +of these fabrics, and modes of gaining effects in them by colour, +will be explained in detail later.</p> + +<p>80. <i>Colour in Designs in which the Figures are produced by the +Weft Yarns.</i>—In Group <i>C</i> the Textiles mentioned are vestings, +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_97">[Pg 97]</span> +dresses, matelasses, and curl fabrics. This is an interesting type +of weave design in which colour is of great utility in developing +the integral parts of the figures composing the pattern. Warp +yarns in these goods are only of secondary importance, the +figured elements of the styles being solely the product of the +weft yarns. These are, therefore, of various shades, while the +warp is generally, although not necessarily, of one colour. +Strictly speaking, these fabrics may be several fold in the weft, +but they are invariably single in the warp. The extreme fancy +character of the textures to which this principle of designing +and colouring is applicable, is indicative of its scope. It is +specially useful in fancy vesting styles, and is absolutely +essential to the construction of one important class of matelasses, +and also invaluable in the weaving of some kinds of curl cloths +made for mantlings.</p> + +<p>81. <i>Figured Effects obtained by Warp Colouring.</i>—This is +the reverse of the preceding principle of intertexture. All the +fabrics enumerated in Class <i>D</i> are constructed on this system. +They have one weft and several warps, the number of the latter +varying according to the multiplicity of colours forming the +pattern. Warp colouring is applicable to an extensive variety of +fabrics. Commencing with the simplest type first, this system +of colouring plays an important part in spotted designs, or +patterns in which the distinguishing feature is a series of spots +or minute specks of bright colours. These effects appear in +suitings, mantlings, dresses, and cotton goods, including fabrics +for small-ware purposes. Very elaborate dress styles are also +figured by several sets of warp colourings. Here the weft is +a sort of binding agent, uniting into one compact and firm +fabric the various elements of warp colouring. Velvets and +figured plushes, comprising astrachans and pile goods made in +imitation of animal skins, in addition to Brussels, Axminster, +and velvet-pile carpets, owe their design composition to the +employment of two or more layers of warp threads.</p> + +<p>82. <i>Colour in Textiles Figured by both Warp and Weft Yarns.</i>—This +is the most comprehensive of all classes of textiles to +which colour is related. The most elaborate patterns made in the +loom, and the most costly, are the product of combining both warp +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_98">[Pg 98]</span> +and weft colouring. It is quite evident, on consulting <a href="#Table_7">Table <abbr title="Seven">VII.</abbr></a> +of the different types of textile colouring, that, in theory, +the <i>E</i> Group of fabrics results from combining the systems of +weaving included in Groups <i>C</i> and <i>D</i>, but, in practice, as +subsequent analysis will demonstrate, other details of designing +and colouring are involved in the execution of this class of +fabrics than those here comprised. As this species of colouring +finds expression in all the types of figured woven effects specialized +in the above mentioned styles of fabrics, it is useless to +attempt further classification. These styles are intricate in +build and unique in principles of intertexture. Usually, they +are neither purely double, nor yet purely single in construction, +but embrace schemes of designing and colouring, such as may +only be mastered by those who previously study the former +fabrics to which colour is applied, and which are named in +<a href="#Table_7">Table <abbr title="Seven">VII.</abbr></a></p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp100" id="fig5a" style="max-width: 43.75em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig5a.jpg" alt="plain weave"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 5.</span>—<i>A</i>, <i>B</i>, <i>C</i>.</p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp100" id="fig5b" style="max-width: 93.5625em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig5b.jpg" alt="twill weave"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 5.</span>—<i>D</i>, <i>E</i>, <i>F</i>.</p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>83. <i>Pattern Design.</i>—This style of pattern results solely +from the methods of grouping fancy warp or weft yarns, or +both these elements of textile fabrics. It may be appropriately +designated “Colour” to distinguish it from “Weave” design; +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_99">[Pg 99]</span> +for, if the colours are removed from such patterns, all effect is +destroyed. Colour here yields both the form of the design and +the beauty of the style. No type of textile designing is more +extensively utilized than this, for the styles resultant are +characterized by neatness and by great utility. Pattern design +relates not only to the artistic grouping or blending of shades, +but to their arrangement. The latter is a factor which has to be +suited to the build of the weave. The same plans of colours +are capable of yielding quite distinct effects in two different +weaves. <a href="#fig5a">Fig. 5, <i>A</i>, <i>B</i>, and <i>C</i></a>, and <a href="#fig5b">Fig. 5, <i>D</i>, <i>E</i>, and <i>F</i></a>, demonstrate +this important principle of textile colouring. The weaves +(marked ⊡’s for weft) are plain in <a href="#fig5a">Fig. 5, <i>A</i>, <i>B</i>, <i>C</i></a>, and [2\2] or +cassimere twill in <a href="#fig5b">Fig. 5, <i>D</i>, <i>E</i>, <i>F</i></a>.

The plain make so +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_100">[Pg 100]</span> +determines the crossing of the warp and weft yarns, that the +white picks always float under the grey threads and over +the white threads, while the grey picks always float under +the white and over the grey threads, hence the solidity of the +respective lines of colour is uninterrupted, and a pattern produced +of a simple stripe order. Coming to the twill weave, it +distributes the colours differently. Each pick floats over and +under two threads at a time, so that the picks at every interlacing +cover, or are covered, by both a grey and a white thread. +Let it now be shown what is the result of this. Supposing the +first thread and pick to be grey (<a href="#fig5b">Fig. 5, <i>F</i></a>) and the second thread +and pick white, then, if the effect of the interweaving of the +first pick is traced, it will be obvious how it forms part of the +minute diagonal pattern sketched in <a href="#fig5b">Fig. 5, <i>F</i></a>. This pick floats +over a grey and a white, and then under a grey and a white +thread, so that a small transverse line of grey is formed equal in +length, not to a float over <i>two</i>, but <i>three</i> threads, for although +the extent of the weft float is two, yet the grey thread adjoining +it enlarges it in effect to three. Next take the second pick. It +floats over the second and third threads, and, being white, makes +a transverse line of this shade of similar dimensions to the +preceding pick, because the fourth thread in the warp is white, +and in the texture is added to the two-weft float. If picks +three and four are examined, it will be noticed that they give +like results, only the positions of the small lines of colours are +moved one thread in each case to the right, causing the diagonal +effect in the fabric to move to the right. Analyzing the first +and second threads, it will be seen that they make short vertical +lines, equal in length to flushing over three picks in succession. +Take the first thread, which is grey: it is depressed on the +first pick, being covered by the grey pick, then up twice; the +second thread is also down on the first pick, then down on the +second pick, being covered by the white weft, and afterwards +elevated over picks three and four, forming a float of white of the +same size as if the thread had flushed over three succeeding picks.</p> + +<p>These illustrations show how the structure of the weave +modifies the effect of the colours. This relation of weave to +colour, as regards systems of arranging fancy shades, is one of +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_101">[Pg 101]</span> +the technical elements of textile colouring. Weaving principles +cannot be ignored; they must always be considered, as they are +capable both of destroying or of beautifying a set of colours.</p> + +<p>Pattern design also relates to the invention of novel methods +of grouping fancy threads, or to the assortment and distribution +of the several colours in both warp and weft. Independent of +the somewhat subtle question of harmony of tints which has +to be considered here, such schemes of blending warp and weft +threads of appropriate colours have to be devised as will give +various styles in the same order of colourings and the same +weave. By a modification of the plan of combining the yarns +great variety of pattern may be obtained. Even when limited +to this mode of producing pattern in the loom, novelty and force +of style is feasible. The simplest alteration in the grouping of +the threads frequently gives quite a new cast to the design. +There are three features of Pattern Design that are intimately +associated with the character of the pattern originated: <abbr title="One">I.</abbr> the +selection of appropriate shades; <abbr title="Two">II.</abbr> their classification and arrangement +as to quantity; and <abbr title="Three">III.</abbr> the invention of such a plan +of combining these colours in the fabric as will be in accordance +with the construction of the weave or design composing the cloth.</p> + +<p>84. <i>Styles due to Colouring only.</i>—The patterns produced +wholly by varying the plan of associating colours in textiles +may in a general sense be grouped under four heads, viz., Stripes, +Checks, Mixtures, and small Figured Effects. These designs +obtain in a large variety in all kinds of materials.</p> + +<p>85. <i>Stripes.</i>—Treating of each description of style analytically, +stripe patterns may be primarily examined. They consist of +bands or lines of different shades, varying in width, running +lengthways of the fabric, that is, in the direction of the warp. +The distinctive characteristic of a stripe is its line-like composition. +All patterns of this order are nothing more than a blend of +lines of divers shades and of various dimensions, extending from +end to end of the piece. For trouserings, suitings, and some styles +of dress and mantling cloths, no form of pattern is better adapted. +The prominence of the several bands of colour, their solidity and +distinctness, or their intermittent character and subdued or toned +aspect, are all qualities depending on the structure of the fabric +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_102">[Pg 102]</span> +and its weave composition, which will be subsequently noticed. +If the pattern in striped styles is principally a warp product, +the weft is only a supplementary feature of the design, being +employed, firstly, to bind the warp ends together and thus form +a wearable fabric; and, secondly, to constitute an appropriate +groundwork on which the warp colourings may be correctly +developed. Proper emphasis of the colours composing the stripes +is acquired by employing a suitable shade of weft, and by adopting +that system of crossing or weaving which will, in addition to +yielding the requisite strength and firmness of fabric, sufficiently +interfere with the continuity of the fancy shades introduced into +the warp. Stripes are of various dimensions and arrangements. +Some are mere lines, and no wider than the diameter of the +threads employed; others are many inches broad. One colour +may be so introduced as to form bands of different widths. +Thus, if brown and black were the colours at command, they +could be so combined as to give styles of several descriptions in +which the bands of the respective shades would always be of +corresponding widths; or they might be combined on such a +principle as to form sets of stripes of variable sizes. To a considerable +extent, the character of these patterns is governed by +the class of texture in which they appear. Instances of this +occur in the various fabrics produced in the loom. Generally, +for example, stripes for trouserings are not wide, but of small +and medium sizes, and soft and neatly toned in colouring. For +ulsterings, dresses, and mantlings, much broader effects, more +elaborate in arrangement, and of greater force of colouring, are +required. In cotton blouses, small styles are the most valuable, +but in cotton fancies for dresses there are no definite limits to +the width of the stripes and to the intricacy of the plan of +colouring.</p> + +<p>86. <i>Checks.</i>—These may be considered as forming the second +great class of patterns in which colour is the all-important +element. Of course reference is only made at this time to that +type of check in which the weave is a simple factor. No allusion +is made to, or consideration taken of, weave compounds which of +themselves will form a species of check. The checks now being +examined are those resulting from adopting the same or a +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_103">[Pg 103]</span> +similar order of weft as warp colouring. In other words, if the +arrangement of warp yarns were 10 threads of black and 2 +threads of white, the weft would be the same, forming a solid +square of black, surrounded by a skeleton square of white. The +term “check” is suggestive of the appearance of these styles +and of the scheme of their construction. The warp colourings, +however complicated in arrangement and diverse in composition, +to produce a perfect check must be crossed or “checked,” as the +operation is technically called, in precisely the same manner and +by exactly the same shades in the weft. The plaids on <a href="#plate05">Plates <abbr title="Five">V.</abbr></a> +and <a href="#plate10"><abbr title="Ten">X.</abbr></a> are typical examples of the principles of checking. +Here it is evident that each set of colours in the warp when +woven with corresponding shades of weft forms a square of +colour perfectly solid. The blue threads of warp and weft make +blue checks; the green, squares of this colour; and the black +and yellow also checks of these shades. The size of the check is +determined by the mode of grouping the yarns, the coarseness of +the texture, and the thickness of the yarns of which it is composed. +Many of the principles of woven colouring applicable to +stripes also apply to checks, which strictly speaking are patterns +striped both in transverse and lineal directions.</p> + +<p>87. <i>Mixtures.</i>—The mixtures implied here may be defined as +small all-over effects in which the various colours used are so +fully co-mingled that the particular part played by any one +colour is not observable. They require the most mellow treatment +of all coloured styles. Nothing of a loud character +succeeds, nor appears attractive in these textures. Mellow, smart, +and choice combinations are desired. The pattern should present +not so much a patchy, as a rich and tinted appearance—every +colour utilized in its formation associating with its neighbours +to compose one indefinite blend of minute effects. To produce +styles of this order no single colour should be distinct and louder +than the rest, nor be allowed to intrude on the eye more than +another—complete harmony of colouring and uniformity of +tone are absolutely essential. But one shade more pronounced in +tint or more powerful in hue—being of a deeper intensity than +its associates—is sufficient to destroy the beauty of the whole +combination. This being the case, the system of mixing the +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_104">[Pg 104]</span> +several shades must be such that all colours will be equally +emphasized; for evidently lack of equality in the prominence +of the various colour elements amalgamated, destroys the +essential character of these useful and valuable styles.</p> + +<p>Mixtures obtain principally in woollen yarns, whose fibrous +surfaces are well adapted for mixing the hues combined +thoroughly, and without producing a fabric in which the +colours form patches or spangles of variable sizes and shapes. +All mixture effects are minute in character, and are produced +for suitings, dress fabrics, etc. In softness and mellowness +of tinting, these are not comparable with similar styles +resulting from using mixture yarns, but they form such an +important description of woven pattern as to deserve specific +analysis.</p> + +<p>In Donegal (Pattern 1, <a href="#plate26a">Plate <abbr title="Twenty-six">XXVI.</abbr></a>) and other extreme +fancy mixtures, specks of bright colour are obtained in the +yarn, which give richness of character without that complete +mixing of fibres which is the ordinary style of blend.</p> + +<p>88. <i>Figures.</i>—Necessarily these are very minute in dimensions +and limited in form. Perhaps they might be also appropriately +designated spotted patterns, but as the figures are of definable +shapes, and are arranged on various bases, the former term +appears the more suitable. This species of colouring is applied +to cotton and woollen and worsted fabrics. Invariably the +weaves are of an elementary grade. In these, neat and minutely +figured styles are developed in considerable variety. Thus in +the plain weave alone, several distinct patterns are obtainable; +while in the celtic, or mat, and in the cassimere and six-end +twills somewhat more broken-up figuring is acquired, which for +some makes of cloths is preferable to designs consisting of pronounced +and decided forms.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp74" id="plate15a" style="max-width: 31.25em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/plate15a.jpg" alt="two colour"> + <figcaption style="color: blue;"> + <p>Plate <abbr title="Fifteen">XV</abbr><br> + <span class="allsmcap">REGULAR STRIPES</span><br> + <span class="smaller">1.

It is due to changing the positions of the +colours in relation to the intersections of the weave. Analysis +of the fabric shows that in Sections <i>A</i> the light threads float +<em>over</em> the light picks and the dark threads <em>over</em> the dark picks; +whereas in Parts <i>B</i> the opposite rule obtains, viz., the light +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_107">[Pg 107]</span> +threads float <em>under</em> the light picks and the dark threads <em>under</em> +the dark picks. As a consequence, the lines of colours in <i>A</i> are +vertical, while those in <i>B</i> are horizontal. This arrangement of +pattern is entirely due to the system of warp colouring, which +is as follows:⁠—</p> + +<table class="autotable"> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">1</td> + <td class="tdc">thread of</td> + <td class="tdl">grey.</td> + <td class="tdl">⎫</td> + <td class="tdl" rowspan="2"><i>A.</i></td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">1</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">white.</td> + <td class="tdl">⎭</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">1</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">white.</td> + <td class="tdl">⎫</td> + <td class="tdl" rowspan="2"><i>B.</i></td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">1</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">grey.</td> + <td class="tdl">⎭</td> +</tr> +</table> + +<p class="unindent">The weft is 1 pick of white and 1 pick of grey throughout the +pattern.

The diversity of lines adds to the richness of the +pattern. Had they been equal in size, there would have been +stiffness of form and want of harmony of colour. The green +and the pink would have been too pronounced in tone, but by +adapting the width of the stripe to the brightness of colour, +harmony and contrast are maintained.</p> + +<p><abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 1, <a href="#plate18">Plate <abbr title="Eighteen">XVIII.</abbr></a>, is still richer in colouring and in variety +of stripe.

This is one pattern in itself, but in order to +combine it with the second stripe <i>B</i>, without colour impinging +upon colour, there is down either side dividing lines in white. +Stripe <i>B</i> consists of four sizes of lines in addition to the white, +in pale blue, pink, gold, and sage green.

For instance, to form +a brown shade by this method, at least three or five tones—the +larger the number the better, and the more complete the gradation—of +this colour would be required, such as very dark, dark, +medium, light, and very light brown. Each shade should be +continued for a suitable number of threads, taking them in +succession, and running from dark to light, and <i lang="la">vice versâ</i>.

They +obtain in all species of colouring, such as subdued and tempered +shades, and bright and lustrous tints. They are characterized by +diversification of arrangement, outline, and dimensions. As a +rule, the check styles appearing in cotton, silk, and worsted yarns +are clearer in pattern than those produced in woollen fabrics, +which are frequently more or less indistinct and intermingled in +composition. Possibly no form of design or method of grouping +shades is more extensively worked than that of checking. It +affords scope for novelty of pattern construction. Figured goods +occasionally possess a checked surface of mellow colouring, on +which the floral or geometrical design is distributed. Not infrequently +this check groundwork enhances the fabric and +pattern in which it occurs, giving diversity of surface to the +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_120">[Pg 120]</span> +former, and developing with suitable precision the integral parts +of the latter. But in addition to this principle of textile design +being utilized in figured fabrics according to the system indicated, +it is adopted in the construction of a wide series of styles. +Shawls, mantlings, shirtings, flannels, suitings, coatings, dress +fabrics, and other classes of textiles are coloured with this +description of pattern. For dress materials and shawls, tartan +and plaid checks are produced in a great variety of shades and +systems of blending; in tweeds, ulsterings, and Irish homespuns, +somewhat loud and broad checkings are applied, generally soft +in colouring. When suitings and coatings are considered, the +checks are usually small in size and neat in colour.</p> + +<p>Checks vary in size and form from minute squares to patterns +consisting of solid squares of colour several inches in a repeat; +and from compact rectangular spaces of colour to intermingled line +patterns, but which still form a decided square or check design.</p> + +<p>102. <i>Principles of Checking.</i>—There are many systems of +checking, yet there are some principles of construction common +to every class of check pattern. For example, whatever plan of +colourings obtains in the warp, in order to make a perfect +check the same set of colourings must be employed in the +weft. This is the ordinary method of checking; it is the crossing +of the warp shades with corresponding weft shades which +constitutes the square or check divisions. All checks are +formed of rectangular spaces of colours. Such designs may be +defined as compositions of squares of various sizes, of distinct +shades fitting into each other to form a complete pattern. When +producing these styles, the first work to be accomplished is the +arrangement of the warp threads, which will determine the plan of +the check. Supposing this to be, for instance, the pattern given +in <a href="#fig14">Fig. 14</a> on page 111, then, in order to convert it into a check, +the same order of wefting as warping would require to be adopted, +which would yield a large check of black—formed by the eight +ends of this shade in the warp and weft—filled in with a series +of outline checks of white surrounding solid squares of black; or +consider the tartan plaid given on <a href="#plate10">Plate <abbr title="Ten">X.</abbr></a> It is a plaid comprising +in each repeat several sets of checks or square divisions. +First, there are the line checks of yellow, lavender, dark green, +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_121">[Pg 121]</span> +and white; second, the squares of blue; third, the squares of +scarlet; and fourth, the main checks of green. These various +squares are so combined as to make a perfect pattern, or one +in which each rectangular space neatly fits into the squares of +colour with which it interchanges. In producing such a fabric, +the system of colouring the warp is primarily determined as +indicated, the wefting being a counterpart of it; though not +necessarily so, because the idea is rather to maintain the clear +squares of colour than precisely the same number of shots or +picks as threads per inch.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp95" id="plate17" style="max-width: 31.5625em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/plate17.jpg" alt="Fancy tweeds"> +</figure> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp100" id="plate17b" style="max-width: 31.25em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/plate17b.jpg" alt="Fancy Tweeds"> + <figcaption style="color: blue;"> + <p>Plate <abbr title="Seventeen">XVII</abbr><br> + <span class="allsmcap">FANCY TWEEDS</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>It will be obvious that on this principle any form of check may be +acquired; for by colouring, say, the shaded stripes given on <a href="#plate16b">Plate +XVI</a>. in the weft as in the warp, shaded checks would result. +There is, however, one technicality to be considered, which adds +to the intricacy of this kind of pattern construction, namely, the +weave of the fabric. So long as the weaves employed, float the +warp and weft equally and regularly on the respective sides of +the fabric, the same balance of colouring is acquired in both the +direction of the warp and weft; but should the weave bring +more warp than weft, or more weft than warp, on to the face, +then whichever factor predominates, it will be impossible to +obtain a check style in which both the warp and the weft +colouring will be equally pronounced. If, for instance, <a href="#fig13">Fig. 13</a> +were changed into a check, in order to obtain the same precision +of white colouring across as lengthways of the piece, some +alteration in the structure of the weave would be necessary. +This will be evident on consulting <a href="#fig13a">Fig. <span class="allsmcap">13A</span></a>, the plan of the +weave of this striped fabric. It will be observed that this weave +floats ⅘ths of the warp to ⅕th of the weft on the face; hence, if +it should be used as here given, and the same order of colouring +practised in the weft as in the warp, the white lines in the weft +would be less distinct on the face than on the back of the cloth, +for they only cover one thread out of five. To get a similar +prominence of white in the weft as is seen in the warp of the +fabric, the weave would have to be extended to twenty threads +and picks, and the 19th and 20th picks modified in such a +manner as to bring ⅘ths of the weft ⅕th of the warp on the +face of the texture. When, as in common twills and other +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_122">[Pg 122]</span> +simple weaves, there are equal quantities of warp and weft yarns +appearing on both sides of the fabric, no difficulties of this kind +arise in converting a stripe into a check pattern.</p> + +<p>There are various kinds of “broken” checks in which the +combination of warp shades is made to appear like a check by +weaving it with some order of weft colouring which, while +forming a series of transverse lines of colour, will develop the +fancy yarns in the warp which constitute the main element of +such patterns. These, as well as other recognized types of +checking, which are particularly effective in the woven fabric, +and illustrative of the general principles of this class of textile +colouring, will now be described.</p> + +<p>103. <i>Several Styles of Checks.</i>—Check patterns may be classified +under three heads, as follows:⁠—</p> + +<table class="autotable"> +<tr> + <td class="tdr"><abbr title="One">I.</abbr></td> + <td class="tdl">Checks composed of Two Colours.</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr"><abbr title="Two">II.</abbr></td> + <td class="tdl">Checks composed of Three or more Colours.</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr"><abbr title="Three">III.</abbr></td> + <td class="tdl">Shaded and Irregular Checks.</td> +</tr> +</table> + +<p>A considerable range of patterns is obtained in two shades; +if the principles of checking with two shades are fully mastered, +the more advanced species of check designs in which a large +variety of colours obtains, will be readily understood. Indeed, +it may be said that checks of three or more colours are elaborations +of two-shade patterns. When a diversity of colours is +employed, it does not follow that large quantities of each shade +are used, but as a rule two shades compose the general cast of +the pattern, while the additional hues are so many brightening +factors. The art of checking consists in the skilful application +of two or more shades, so that several useful schemes of grouping +the threads in such patterns may be considered separately.</p> + +<p>Intermingled and irregular checks are composed of square +spaces of colour lacking clearness of character, and are useful for +tweeds and certain classes of worsted goods.</p> + +<p class="p2 center"> +<span class="smcap">Checks composed of Two Colours.</span> +</p> + +<p>104. <i>Forms of Checking in Two Shades.</i>—These are illustrated +in <a href="#fig15">Figs. 15</a> to <a href="#fig23">23</a> inclusive. The illustrations furnished are +typical of the different systems of combining two shades in +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_123">[Pg 123]</span> +making check patterns. The forms of checking are, strictly +speaking, unlimited. Beginning with the smallest check, consisting +of two ends of a dark and two ends of a light shade +alternately, the forms increase in intricacy and dimensions until +patterns of several inches in size, and comprising several types +of checking, are acquired.</p> + +<p>105. <i>Common Check.</i>—The commonest form of check is given +in <a href="#fig15">Fig. 15</a>. It results from arranging the warp and weft threads +as follows:⁠—</p> + +<table class="autotable"> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">8</td> + <td class="tdc">or any</td> + <td class="tdc">number</td> + <td class="tdc">of threads of</td> + <td class="tdl">black.</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">8</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">white.</td> +</tr> +</table> + +<p>Of course the number of threads of each colour, as well as the +shades, may be varied. This style of check is worked in shepherd +plaids and in other patterns, and in all kinds of materials. +The weaves generally employed are plain, cassimere twill, and +mat, each make giving suitable clearness to the colours.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp49" id="fig15" style="max-width: 26.25em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig15.jpg" alt="Common check"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 15.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp49" id="fig16" style="max-width: 30.875em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig16.jpg" alt="Common check modification"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 16.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>106. <i>Modification of Common Check.</i>—<a href="#fig16">Fig. 16</a> shows how, by +a simple variation in the order of colouring the common check, +it may be changed in character. This modification destroys the +stiffness of the pattern. The plan of colouring in this example +is as follows:⁠—</p> + +<table> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">8</td> + <td class="tdl pad6">threads of</td> + <td class="tdl">black.</td> + <td class="tdl pad2">8</td> + <td class="tdl pad6">threads of</td> + <td class="tdr">white.</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">2</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">white.</td> + <td class="tdl pad2">2</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdr">black.</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">8</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">black.</td> + <td class="tdl pad2">8</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdr">white.</td> +</tr> +</table> + +<p class="unindent">An outline check of black is thus arranged to divide the squares +of white into four sections, and an outline check of white to +similarly divide the squares of black. It is a neat and useful +form of pattern. Though only consisting of two shades, it comprises +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_124">[Pg 124]</span> +five effects, namely, solid squares of black, white, and +squares of black and white equally mixed; and also of outline +checks of black and white. Other colours besides those in +which it is sketched are used in great variety, and it is a style +applied with satisfactory results to rugs, shawls, dresses, cottons, +woollens, and worsteds, being altered in size in the several fabrics +according to the degree of loudness required.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp50" id="fig17" style="max-width: 25.0em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig17.jpg" alt="Check 2 size squares"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 17.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp50" id="fig18" style="max-width: 25.0em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig18.jpg" alt="check modified"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 18.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>107. <i>Check consisting of Two Sizes of Squares.</i>—Another +valuable form of check, and one that is extensively utilized, is +that in <a href="#fig17">Fig. 17</a>. It is a combination of two sets of squares of +different sizes; it is given in the most elementary form, the plan +of colouring being twelve threads of black and six threads of +white, but it is rarely employed without being subjected to +various modifications. Some of these modifications may be +alluded to. In the first example, the large checks of black, and +also of white, are bisected. This is done without increasing the +shade, as follows (<a href="#fig18">Fig. 18</a>):⁠—</p> + +<table> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">5</td> + <td class="tdc pad6">threads of</td> + <td class="tdl">black.</td> + <td class="tdr pad2">2</td> + <td class="tdc pad6">threads of</td> + <td class="tdr">white.</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">2</td> + <td class="tdc pad6">„</td> + <td class="tdl">white.</td> + <td class="tdr">2</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">black.</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">5</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">black.</td> + <td class="tdr">2</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">white.</td> +</tr> +</table> + +<p class="unindent">In this way, the stiffness of the pattern is removed and a check +obtained on the same base, but containing fuller variation of +construction. Secondly, the square of black might be warped +and woven thread and thread, while the square of white should +remain solid, making a pattern suitable for flannel shirtings. +One further modification to which this style is subjective, consists +in bisecting the square of black or of white, but preferably +the former, because it contains the largest number of threads.</p> + +<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_125">[Pg 125]</span></p> +<figure class="figcenter illowp50" id="fig19" style="max-width: 25.0em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig19.jpg" alt="Overcheck"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 19.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp50" id="fig20" style="max-width: 25.0em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig20.jpg" alt="overcheck modified"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 20.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>108. <i>Pattern composed of Solid Squares and of an Overcheck.</i>—An +over-check is a small line of colour forming a skeleton +square, filled in with solid squares of several shades. This base—illustrated +in <a href="#fig19">Fig. 19</a>—is employed in dress fabrics, shawls, +and ulsterings, and, in small effects, in suitings and mantlings. +The yarns are arranged—4 threads of black, 2 threads of white, +4 threads of black, 10 threads of white, 10 threads of black, and +10 threads of white. The characteristic feature here is that only +every alternate square of black is bisected, causing the small line +of white which divides it to form an over-check equal in size +to four of the black or white squares. This outline or skeleton +check contains one solid square of black, four squares of white, +and four squares of black and white twilled.

The example given—<a href="#fig22">Fig. 22</a>—only contains +two sizes of checks, but such designs may be composed of a +much larger series of different-sized squares. Here the plan of +grouping is also elementary, including a set of eighteen small +squares of black and white separated by similar-sized checks of +white and black twilled, and also a number of large checks of +black and white.

The object of the arrangement is to +graduate from a series of small to a series of large checks. +In the fabric, the respective checks appear to run into each +other. No less than eight sizes of squares occur in this example, +varying from a check of two to sixteen threads, the order of +colouring being thus:⁠—</p> + +<table> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">2</td> + <td class="tdc pad6">threads of</td> + <td class="tdl">white.</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">4</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">black.</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">6</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">white.</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">8</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">black.</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">10</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">white.</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">12</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">black.</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">14</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">white.</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">16</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">black.</td> +</tr> +</table> + +<p class="unindent">When using fine materials and high counts of yarns the series +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_128">[Pg 128]</span> +of gradations is largely extended, continuing to checks containing +as many as forty-eight and even sixty-four threads. +Occasionally, the check is graduated from a maximum to a +minimum size on both sides of the extreme large square, and not +simply shaded off on one side as in the illustration.</p> + +<p>112. <i>Broken Check in Two Colours.</i>—A species of irregular +check in two colours is given in <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 1 + on <a href="#plate19a">Plate <abbr title="Nineteen">XIX.</abbr></a> The order +of the threads is not intricate, being 8 threads of maroon, 8 +threads of green, 2 threads of maroon, and 2 threads of green, +and forms a mellow check style. This arises, first, from the +corresponding strength of the two shades used; second, from +the system of blending practised; and third, from the manner +in which the weave distributes the threads. This pattern +illustrates what neat effects may be acquired in two shades by +an appropriate method of combining colours which contrast and +harmonize. The style under consideration is composed of the +contrasting colours green and maroon, which, when of corresponding +intensities, as in this illustration, produce harmony. +This is evident by the sense of completeness which characterizes +the style when it is examined. It does not require any additional +hue to brighten or freshen it, for it is apparently rich and +mellow in colour composition.</p> + +<p>The plan of grouping the shades causes the full checks of +maroon and green to be in contact with each other, while the +two threads of the respective hues give a shaded tone to the +pattern—the colours seeming to vanish into each other. When +making checks in which softness rather than loudness of +effect is desirable, this toning of one colour into another is a +very requisite element.</p> + +<p>113. <i>Basket Check in Two Colours.</i>—Basket checks are +obtained in two shades, and comprise two sizes of checking. +They are produced in both four-and six-shaft twills, and also in +fine yarns in the eight-end make. They contain four varieties +of work, due to the manner in which the several sets of threads +interlace with each other. A reference to <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 2, <a href="#plate19b">Plate <abbr title="Nineteen">XIX.</abbr></a>, +will make it evident what is the nature of these effects. This +is a basket check which has been woven in the cassimere twill, +and in the order of threads which follows:⁠—</p> + +<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_129">[Pg 129]</span></p> +<table class="autotable"> +<tr> + <td class="tdr" rowspan="2">For 64 threads.</td> + <td class="tdl">⎧</td> + <td class="tdl">4</td> + <td class="tdc">threads of</td> + <td class="tdl">slate.</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdl">⎩</td> + <td class="tdl">4</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">white.</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr" rowspan="2">For 48 threads.</td> + <td class="tdl">⎧</td> + <td class="tdl">2</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">slate.</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdl">⎩</td> + <td class="tdl">2</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">white.</td> +</tr> +</table> + +<p class="unindent">The four-and-four grouping gives the shepherd-plaid effect +bracketed <span class="allsmcap">A</span>, and the two-and-two grouping the fine and minute +checking bracketed <span class="allsmcap">B</span>. The remaining effects in the pattern are +due to the four-and-four wefting crossing the two-and-two +warping—part <span class="allsmcap">C</span>,—and the two-and-two wefting crossing the +four-and-four warping in section <span class="allsmcap">D</span>. In woollen, worsted, and +other yarns this style of check is largely developed. In the +illustration the sizes of the respective checks are not the same, +the large plaid effect extending over 64 and the small plaids over +48 threads; but in some patterns they are exactly of the same +dimensions. When the six-end twill is used, the shades are not +grouped in fours and twos, but in sixes and threes, as in the +example:⁠—</p> + +<table class="autotable smaller"> +<tr> + <td class="tdr" rowspan="2">For 48 threads.</td> + <td class="tdl">⎧</td> + <td class="tdl">6</td> + <td class="tdc">threads of</td> + <td class="tdl">white.</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdl">⎩</td> + <td class="tdl">6</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">fawn or brown and white twist.</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr" rowspan="2">For 48 threads.</td> + <td class="tdl">⎧</td> + <td class="tdl">3</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">white.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdl">⎩</td> + <td class="tdl">3</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">fawn or brown and white twist.</td> +</tr> +</table> + +<p>One feature in colouring these checks is that no strong +contrast of shades is suitable. Seeing that the system of grouping +the shades is enough to produce ample diversity of style, +loudness of colouring is unnecessary. From the illustration +given, it will be seen that there is no marked distinction of hue +in the colours combined. Such shades as white, and slate and +white twist; white, and brown and white twist; and white, and +blue and white twist, all yield patterns of the requisite depth of +contrast. These examples are in light shades, but this type of +checking also obtains an important place in dark patterns for +ulstering and mantling fabrics.</p> + +<p class="p2 center"> +<span class="smcap">Checks of Three or more Colours.</span> +</p> + +<p>114. <i>Principle of Checking with Three Colours.</i>—The principles +of design and colouring involved in making check styles in three +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_130">[Pg 130]</span> +shades are more intricate than those relating to checking with +two colours. More ingenious patterns, fuller of detail and more +diversified in composition, are producible with three than two +shades. The third colour is important and valuable in toning +and mellowing the check arrangement. Thus, supposing a light +and dark shade formed the principal sections of a check +composition, then by introducing into it a third and intermediate +colour, increased softness of effect could be acquired and harshness +of contrast obviated. Check arrangements of this class are +employed in many types of woven goods, and are particularly +useful in designing for some species of suitings, mantlings, cotton +and silk fabrics. They are not so formal in cast as two-shade +patterns, the square spaces of colour being better toned. Some +of the most generally adopted systems of grouping the shades +in these styles are represented in <a href="#fig24">Figs. 24</a> to <a href="#fig32">32</a> inclusive. By +comparing them with the checks obtained +in two colours given in <a href="#fig15">Figs. 15</a> to <a href="#fig23">23</a>, it +will at once be evident that they contain a +more complete range of effects and are +more diversified in outline than the preceding +examples. The function of the third +shade and its utility in improving the +aspect of the patterns will also be observed. +<a href="#fig25">Fig. 25</a>, for instance, though a simple +arrangement, possesses a mellower character than any of the +checks developed in two shades. The grey factor not only +increases the multiplicity of effects appearing in the patterns, +but enhances the value of the respective checkings by giving +a softly-toned cast to them. Amongst the forms of check combinations +illustrated in these figures are the common three-shade +pattern, the set check, the compound base, the counter-change +base, the interchanging base, and counter-change with over-check +base.</p> + +<figure class="figleft illowp35" id="fig24" style="max-width: 25.0em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig24.jpg" alt="Three-colour check"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 24.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>115. <i>Ordinary Three-shade Check.</i>—The commonest and +most elementary form of three-coloured checking is that in +which the squares of colour are equal in size, <i>e.g.</i>, 10 black, +10 grey, and 10 white. When the squares of each colour are +large, the check is satisfactory; but if they are minute, say +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_131">[Pg 131]</span> +about four threads each, and composed of neat colourings, it is +improved in character. Should the colours be dark, medium, +and light, or black, grey, and white, a shaded check is +formed of limited gradation. In greys, blues, browns, or +slates, this arrangement makes a very useful form of pattern, +and one that may be modified in various ways. It might, +for example, be shaded off on both sides by allowing the +intermediate shade to alternate with the dark and light colours. +Another change may be effected by bisecting one of the +squares of colour, say the black, with two ends of a lighter +shade, in which instance one outline check would be obtained +in each repeat of the pattern, which would give quite a +new aspect to the style. If this idea of dividing the checks +is further worked, a considerable range of appropriate modifications +of this base may be acquired. Let one example be +considered. Alter this form by arranging the shades as below +(<a href="#fig24">Fig. 24</a>):⁠—</p> + +<table class="autotable"> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">4</td> + <td class="tdc">threads of</td> + <td class="tdl">black.</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">2</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">medium grey.</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">4</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">black.</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">4</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">medium grey.</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">2</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">black.</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">4</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">medium grey.</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">4</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">white.</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">2</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">medium grey.</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">4</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">white.</td> +</tr> +</table> + +<p class="unindent">According to this scheme the check would be completely changed, +though the base remains unaltered. Each square of colour is +here divided into four sections. The black checks are divided +with an outline check of grey, the grey with an outline check of +black, and the white with an outline check of grey. It will be +clear from this method of modifying the simple order of colouring, +that it is an elementary principle of grouping three shades +to form a check which may be utilized in the development of +fancy patterns.</p> + +<p>116. <i>Set Check.</i>—A check pattern in which certain squares—namely, +black in the illustration—form the main feature of +the design, and are set at corresponding distances apart, with +the respective shades alternately intervening, is supplied in +<a href="#fig25">Fig. 25</a>.

With these, and a proper method of +grouping the yarns, a pattern may be produced of a shaded +character. The weave used, if the order of shade arrangement +is diversified, must be of a simple type. An example will +demonstrate the principle of developing this useful description +of woven design. It is given in <a href="#fig32">Fig. 32</a>, and is a shade in black +and white, the cassimere twill being the weave used in constructing +the fabric. There are several features of this pattern +which may be considered. Obviously it is a compound check, +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_137">[Pg 137]</span> +combining both the ordinary and shaded schemes of checking. +A set of common checks of a shepherd plaid type surround +the shaded check proper. The shaded effect consists of three +factors, which may be separately examined. In the square +spaces, in which white is the main element, a light shade is +acquired by gradually decreasing the quantity of black and +increasing the quantity of +white yarns until a perfect +edging of white is acquired. +Next there are lines of a +deeper shade, due to the +threads used in the composition +of the principal check +crossing those which occur +in the shaded white checkings; +and lastly, there is +the broken square of black, +which decreases by degrees in +intensity from the centre to +its respective edges. Though +the shading as a whole is +not uniformly continued, for +there is a somewhat sudden +change from dark to light +shading, yet at this juncture the effect obtained is softly toned. +Mellowness of gradation is an important element of the pattern.</p> + +<figure class="figleft illowp40" id="fig32" style="max-width: 25.0em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig32.jpg" alt="Shaded check"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 32.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>The irregular manner in which the white and black yarns +appear, like specks on the surface of the fabric, arises from the +employment of a print thread in which these shades alternate +in lengths of about ⅜ths of an inch. Solid black and white +threads alone would not yield the intermingled effect so prominent +in this style. They would produce a much stiffer and more +uniform result. If this system of checking should be applied +to woollen and worsted or cotton goods, twist yarns may be +employed in place of the printed threads. These, in all species +of designing, give more intermingled patterns than self-coloured +yarns, and for this reason are useful in the production of shaded +effects.</p> + +<p><span class="pagenum"

white, is formed by the threads included within <i>A</i> and <i>B</i>. +This will be seen on examining the plan of colouring. At <i>A</i> +there are six parts of white to one part of black and white print +yarn; but at <i>B</i> there is a small quantity of print yarn only—the +toning from extreme white to a complete mixture of black and +white having been gradually effected by the intervening groups +of shades. From <i>C</i> to <i>D</i> the dark shade is produced. Not containing +as many changes as the light shade, it is more decided +in composition. Practically this shade commences at <i>B</i>, which +connects it with the adjoining gradated square of white and +black. At <i>C</i>, however, the first move to black begins, for here +black and print yarns are equally mixed. The number of black +threads now increases until Section <i>D</i> is reached, when it begins +to diminish, ultimately shading off to a group of print threads +as indicated at <i>E</i>. From this stage the white shade is renewed, +and continues to the end of the pattern.</p> + +<p>Apart from its value as a principle of shading, this style is +extremely suggestive of what may be accomplished by grouping +two shades in woven fabrics of a simple or common twill class.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp75" id="fig33" style="max-width: 31.25em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig33.jpg" alt="Weave shaded check"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 33.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>122. <i>Shaded Checks in Two Colours due to using Designs +Composed of Various Weaves.</i>—These patterns are in some +respects simpler to produce than the preceding class of check. +There is no diversity of shade arrangement in such styles, the +warp and weft being solid colours throughout. Now in an +ordinary twill such colouring would not give any form of check, +so that this is quite a distinct principle of checking. It is one +that is applied to worsted, silk, and cotton, but not to woollen +textures to any large extent. The combination of weaves +necessary is not so well adapted for development in woollen, as +in the other classes of threads named. Colouring being simple, +the design is correspondingly intricate. If this is well constructed +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_140">[Pg 140]</span> +it will yield a shaded pattern, though the warp and +weft yarns be of precisely the same colour, size, and quality. +When this sort of shade is formed, a better effect is produced in +such yarns as worsted and silk. Cotton or woollen threads +would not give the same effect in designs arranged on the +principle of a gradual movement from a maximum warp to a +minimum weft flush, and inversely, as in <a href="#fig33">Figs. 33</a> and <a href="#fig34">34</a>. The +essential of shading consists in diversity of tinting. A brown, +or any other shade, is producible if several colours of brown of +variable depths are combined, but not otherwise. What in this +instance is impracticable from a colour standpoint, is feasible by +a suitable arrangement of weaves. The shade that may thus +be produced is not, of course, so clear and pronounced as that +due to a diversity of colouring, for it simply results from the +difference in effect of the flushes of warp and weft yarns composing +the pattern. As there is some visible distinction in the +brightness of the floats of warp and weft respectively, if the +weaves constituting the design are arranged on such a principle +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_141">[Pg 141]</span> +as to tone one into the other, they produce an effect of a shaded +type. According to the example furnished, one set of weaves +which combines admirably on this method is that derived from +a sateen base. But these are not the only weaves used, many +varieties of twills being employed for similar purposes; but +sateens give the most uniform shades of any class of weaves +that can be utilized. On referring to <a href="#fig33">Figs. 33</a> and <a href="#fig34">34</a>, it will be +seen that the weaves differ from each other in the extent to +which they flush the warp and weft yarns on the face of the +texture. To construct a shaded pattern of this kind, commence +with the extreme warp-flush weave, adjoining which place the +weave most closely approaching it in structure; the diminution +in warp and the increase in weft flush continuing from one +weave to another, until the extreme or maximum weft flush is +attained. In such a scale of shades, the extreme warp- and weft-flush +weaves represent opposite ends of the shade, the weaves intervening +completing the gradation or toning of the pattern.

A pattern composed of small checks is +here obtained, analysis of the colourings showing the warp and +weft to consist of different shades. Thus, while the order of +warping is 5 threads of light fawn, 1 thread of green, 4 threads +of slate, 5 threads of light fawn, and 5 threads of slate; the +weft is 4 picks of black, 1 pick of scarlet, 5 picks of bluish +grey, 5 picks of black, and 5 picks of bluish grey. The +contrast between the warp and weft shades defines the weave, +which, if the warp and weft colourings had been alike, would, +in some parts of the pattern, have been indistinct.</p> + +<p>The point to be observed in this type of colouring, is to employ +shades of similar intensities in both warp and weft; thus, in +this example, the slate is almost as prominent in the woven +fabric as the black, the light fawn as the bluish grey, and the +green as the scarlet. It is only by securing this balance of hues +that harmonious colourings are producible in broken check +patterns. Should any particular colour be stronger in character +than others, it destroys some of the elements of the pattern. +This principle of cross checking is also applied to various classes +of striped fabrics, in which it is desirable to partially subdue the +continuity of the warp colourings.</p> + +<p>125. <i>Examples in the Colouring of Tartans.</i>—These may be +defined as squares of colour varying in size and arrangement, +and are, strictly, an elaborate scheme of check design entirely in +colouring. One interesting feature of these plaids is that the +colours are usually of the same depth or degree of intensity, as +illustrated by the Erskine plaid, a compound of bright scarlet +and green. These two contrasting and complementary hues +form a good checking. It is not, however, always the case that +complementary colours are blended; for instance, the Montgomery +tartan is composed of green and blue, two colours which, if not +of the proper hue and intensity, would produce an incongruous +pattern. Hence, here, as in many other plaids, it is a question +of using the correct depth and hue of colour.</p> + +<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_146">[Pg 146]</span> +Tartans illustrate the hues which combine harmoniously, and +also the quantities or areas in which bright colours unite in a +satisfactory manner.</p> + +<p>As illustrations of this, the Macdonald and Hunting Menzies +may be compared. In both, exactly the same colours are used, +with entirely different effects. The Macdonald, in consequence +of the large quantity of scarlet entering into its composition, is a +bright plaid; whereas the Menzies is much softer and mellower +in appearance. The larger the variety of colours, the more +interesting the result in the pattern. If, for instance, the Duke +of Rothesay, a three-colour tartan, is compared with the Hay, +a five-colour one, the value of the larger number of hues in +multiplying the diversity of colouring will be understood. Both +are satisfactory compounds of coloured yarns, but the superior +richness of the Hay is apparent. In each, red, green, and white +are used, with the addition of black and yellow in the Hay. +The Rothesay has a large square of red, divided with stripes of +white, whereas in the Hay a similar space of red is subdivided +with stripes of white, black, and green. In the Rothesay the +green sections are crossed with lines of red; but in the Hay, +with lines of yellow and red, forming a check rich in colouring.</p> + +<p>126. <i>Types of Tartans.</i>—Tartans may be classified as +follows:⁠—</p> + +<p class="unindent indent20"> +1. Plaids in two colours.<br> +2. Plaids in three colours.<br> +3. Plaids in four colours.<br> +4. Plaids in five colours.<br> +5.

The Menzies is produced in red +and white, red and black, black and white, and red and green, +the last being termed the Hunting Menzies.</p> + +<p>The black and white Menzies, in its original form, is illustrated +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_147">[Pg 147]</span> +in <a href="#fig36">Fig. 36</a>, the order of shades in both warp and weft being as +follows:⁠—</p> + +<table class="autotable"> +<tr> + <td class="tdl">Black</td> + <td class="tdr">96</td> + <td class="tdr">12</td> + <td class="tdr">24</td> + <td class="tdr">6</td> + <td class="tdr">6</td> + <td class="tdr">24</td> + <td class="tdr">12</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdl">White</td> + <td class="tdr">16</td> + <td class="tdr">16</td> + <td class="tdr">8</td> + <td class="tdr">36</td> + <td class="tdr">8</td> + <td class="tdr">16</td> + <td class="tdr">16</td> +</tr> +</table> + +<p class="unindent">It is a forcible scheme of checking which may be developed on +various lines.

The MacKinnon in particular is characterized +by simplicity of form and scheme of colouring; the +Dundas is a heavier base; and the Fraser full of details and of +shade contrasts. They are also dissimilar in colour qualities. +The MacKinnon and Dundas are both dark plaids, the former +being composed of brown, green, scarlet, and white, and the +latter of black, green, scarlet, and blue.

Many of these, as well as the plaids +themselves, when developed in subdued colourings, are suitable +for styles in dress and mantle fabrics. In recent years they +have also been developed in the foundation of plush and other +textures. They are specially suitable for such textures, inasmuch +as the contiguity of the figuring formed in velvet or loop pile +destroys any stiffness of character which lines of colour, cutting +each other at right angles—as in all check patterns—must more +or less possess. To the student of colour contrast and harmony +these patterns are interesting and suggestive. They are +illustrative, not only of how bright colours may be blended +without yielding patterns in which the contrasts are displeasing, +but also of the quantities of the colours which give the +most harmonious composition. As they are distinctly textile +colourings, and are the product of weaving, they possess qualities +which are not to be found in any other type of colouring. The +field which has been covered has by no means been fully explored. +There are many possibilities in this branch of textile work which +can only be analyzed by systematic experiments conducted in +the loom.</p> + +<hr class="chap x-ebookmaker-drop"> + + +<div class="chapter"> +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_159">[Pg 159]</span> + <h2 class="nobreak" id="CHAPTER_VIII"> + CHAPTER <abbr title="Eight">VIII.</abbr> + </h2> + <h3> + SIMPLE COLOURINGS. + </h3> +</div> + +<div class="blockquot"> +<p>131.

They give +different effects, according to the weave in which they are +developed. The one-and-one system is applied chiefly to plain +and twilled weaves, in which it constitutes two styles of patterns +very extensively produced in ordinary fancies. First, in the +plain make, it forms the hairline stripe sketched in <a href="#fig5a">Fig. 5<span class="allsmcap">C</span></a>; and +in the cassimere twill, the step-diagonal effect sketched in <a href="#fig5b">Fig. 5<span class="allsmcap">F</span></a>. +Both are useful textural styles. In cottons, silks, and fancy +woollens and worsteds, this order of threads can be made to +produce patterns of some intricacy of composition by simply +employing in one instance the two plain makes given in <a href="#fig60">Figs. 60</a> +and <a href="#fig60a">60<span class="allsmcap">A</span></a>, + and in the other instance the two twills given in <a href="#fig61">Figs. +61</a> and <a href="#fig61a">61<span class="allsmcap">A</span></a>. Should the plain weaves be combined, say, in such +a manner as to make a stripe, and this design woven in the one-and-one +system of colouring, the woven result would consist of +a band of lines of the respective colours running longitudinally +in the fabric, and of a band of transverse lines of the same +shades. This is a principle which is capable of being utilized in +the construction of elaborately figured designs.</p> + +<p>When the weaves supplied in <a href="#fig61">Figs. 61</a> and <a href="#fig61a">61<span class="allsmcap">A</span></a> are combined, +and the resultant design woven in this order of shades, in such +sections of the fabric as <a href="#fig61a">61<span class="allsmcap">A</span></a> occurs, the pattern produced +consists of small step effects twilling to the right, but in the +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_163">[Pg 163]</span> +sections composed of <a href="#fig61">Fig. 61</a>, of similar effects twilling to the +left; hence, by combining these in the form of stripes, checks, +or figures, woven patterns are obtainable diversified in aspect +and arrangement.</p> + +<p>Next, as to the two-and-two system (Class A, Scheme <abbr title="Two">II.</abbr>, of +Simple Colourings) of combining shades. This is another plan +of grouping colours for certain elementary crossings. Its +effects in the [2/2] twill and the mat or celtic are typical of the +general style of pattern obtainable.</p> + +<p>The results produced in the twill are those in <a href="#fig162">Figs. 62</a>, <a href="#fig62a">62<span class="allsmcap">A</span></a>, +and <a href="#fig62b">62<span class="allsmcap">B</span></a>. The different effects are due to the employment of +distinct wefts. Thus, in <a href="#fig62">Fig. 62</a> the weft is grey, in <a href="#fig62a">Fig. 62<span class="allsmcap">A</span></a> +white, and in <a href="#fig62b">Fig. 62<span class="allsmcap">B</span></a> the same as the warp, or two picks of +grey and two picks of white. When the grey weft is used, a +stripe of grey adjoining an intermittent stripe of white is +obtained; when white forms the weft, a small line of white +adjoins a broken line of grey and white; but when a corresponding +method of wefting is adopted as warping, a small broken +check effect is acquired.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp30a" id="fig62" style="max-width: 21.5em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig62.jpg" alt="two-and-two"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 62.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp30a" id="fig62a" style="max-width: 22.125em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig62a.jpg" alt="two-and-two"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 62a.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp30a" id="fig62b" style="max-width: 19.875em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig62b.jpg" alt="two-and-two"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 62b.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>Changing the weave to hopsack or mat alters the patterns +resultant. If the weft be black in this two-and-two colouring, +and the weave four-end celtic, a style is constructed similar +to that given in <a href="#fig63">Fig. 63</a>, or a pattern with a black ground +on which squares of solid white are regularly distributed +at uniform distances apart. Substituting white for the black +weft, a texture with a white foundation and a black square +spot, just the reverse of <a href="#fig63">Fig. 63</a>, is produced; whereas if the +weft is the same as the warp, a style composed of solid lines +of black and white, or a pattern of a hairline description, +results.</p> + +<p>These examples clearly set forth the principles of weaving in +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_164">[Pg 164]</span> +relation to methods of colouring. Here the same order of threads—though +extremely simple—in two different crossings of an +elementary structure, forms quite distinct effects. In the cassimere +twill more intermingled, and hence less severe patterns, +are formed than in the mat or hopsack. They consist of small +indefinite stripes and of a minute and irregular check. But in +the mat, the same warp colouring gives a well-defined check +composition, even when the wefts are all one colour, and instead +of a broken check in the fabric when the +weft is similar to the warp, as in the twill, +a stripe of a decided arrangement is got.</p> + +<figure class="figleft illowp30" id="fig63" style="max-width: 22.6875em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig63.jpg" alt="bird's eye spot"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 63</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p><a id="para134"></a>134. <i>Figured Styles in Common Weaves +in One-and-One Colouring.</i>—The principles +of woven effect, just elucidated, whereby +a combination of plain or twilled weaves +may, in the simplest arrangement of colours, +be made to produce in the texture two dissimilar +patterns, may be utilized in the development of figured +designs. Usually these figured fabrics necessitate the adoption of +various schemes of weaving and colouring in their manufacture; +whereas in this type of design there is no elaboration either of +weave or colour. These are particulars of construction peculiar +to patterns acquired on this system.</p> + +<p>A feature of designs of this class consists in the uniform +appearance and sound wearing qualities they impart to the +woven fabric. Some kinds of figured textiles are more or less +loose on the surface and in structure, owing to the diversity of +weave floats requisite to develop the objects or figures composing +the designs. No arrangement of this sort, involving intricacy +of cloth structure, is needed in gaining patterns by this scheme +of weaving. The fabrics, though in some instances elaborately +figured, are plain or twill throughout, according to the makes +employed—hence the textures are even, firm, and neat in both +appearance and construction. Effects of this order are more +subdued in tone and possess a mellower aspect than figured +styles due to combining various principles of weaving and +colouring.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp75" id="fig64" style="max-width: 37.5em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig64.jpg" alt="Small spotted design"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 64.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>Reference to <a href="#fig64">Figs. 64</a> and <a href="#fig65">65</a> will indicate, first, how the +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_165">[Pg 165]</span> +designs are constructed; and, second, how the textural results +are acquired. <a href="#fig64">Fig. 64</a> is a small spotted design composed of two +plain makes. In constructing these designs, the form of the figuring +is primarily sketched out on point paper, and the weaves +subsequently added. When the two makes are in contact, there +must not be more than a float of three. Having worked out +the design on point paper, the next matter to be arranged +is the development of the ground sections in vertical, and the +figured parts in transverse lines of colour, as in <a href="#fig65">Fig. 65</a>, which is +a sketch of the textural effect produced by this design. In all +designs constructed on this base, it is a rule that the fancy shades +in the warp and weft shall, in conjunction, be arranged to form +the striped effects described. When the design given in <a href="#fig64">Fig. 64</a> +is warped and woven 1 thread black and 1 thread white, these +two shades form stripes lengthways of the piece in the ground +portion of the fabric, for the black picks cover the black threads +<i>only</i>, and the white picks the white threads <i>only</i>, while the +small figures are developed in short transverse stripes; because, +in such sections, the weave in the design causes the black picks +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_166">[Pg 166]</span> +to float over the white threads and the white picks to float over +the black threads.</p> + +<figure class="figleft illowp50" id="fig65" style="max-width: 37.5625em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig65.jpg" alt="Spotted design"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 65.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>Now consider the effect of the same order of shades in the +design composed of cassimere twills given on <a href="#plate21">Plate <abbr title="Twenty-one">XXI</abbr></a>. This +style illustrates the process by which the sketch furnished in +<a href="#fig66">Fig. 66</a> is transferred on to point paper and prepared for the +loom. Designs for these fabrics are worked out on the same +system as the preceding example. A comparison of <a href="#fig65">Fig. 65</a> with +<a href="#fig66">Fig. 66</a> brings out several points of dissimilarity. These do not +arise from any variation of +the plan of colouring, but of +the plan of interlacing the +threads in constructing the +fabric. The vertical and +transverse lines of <a href="#fig65">Fig. 65</a> +are substituted by neat diagonal +effects, and a pattern +of more diversified outline +and arrangement obtained. +It has been pointed out that +the thread-and-thread scheme +of shades yields, in the cassimere +twill, the two effects seen in <a href="#fig66">Fig. 66</a>. When the weave +runs to the right, the black and white diagonal effect runs to +the left, and <i lang="la">vice versâ</i>; so that in preparing the designs for +the loom it has, in the first place, to be decided whether the +ground or the figured sections shall be developed in the minute +diagonals of shades moving to the right. Generally, it will be +found that this effect is most suitable for the ground.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp74" id="plate21" style="max-width: 43.4375em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/plate21.jpg" alt="Simple twills"> + <figcaption style="color: blue;"> + <p>Plate <abbr title="Twenty-one">XXI</abbr><br> +<span class="allsmcap">FIGURING IN SIMPLE TWILLS</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p><a id="para135"></a>135. <i>Utility of the One-and-One Principle in Figured Textiles.</i>—The +scheme of textile colouring and designing analyzed in the +previous paragraph is applicable to a large diversity of goods, +including cotton, silk, worsted, and woollen fabrics.

Black and white shepherd plaids +are made on this base, a useful form and size of check resulting +from its employment. Some of the effects got in the cassimere +twill by warping four threads of grey and four threads of white, +and wefting with white and grey, and with the same order of +shades as in the warp, are sketched in <a href="#fig72">Figs. 72</a>, + <a href="#fig72a">72<span class="allsmcap">A</span></a>, <a href="#fig72b">72<span class="allsmcap">B</span></a>. The +check style here is particularly neat. It is produced in a variety +of colours for almost all kinds of fabrics. When the four-end +mat weave is used, a species of star check is formed, as seen in +<a href="#fig73">Fig. 73</a>. A considerable range of patterns ensues from adopting +this order of colours and combining the cassimere and mat +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_172">[Pg 172]</span> +weaves in the construction of stripe, check, and diagonal designs. +Thus, supposing the last type of weave-combination were employed, +then in such parts of the diagonal where the twill occurred, +the shepherd plaid effect would result, but the hopsack sections +would yield the star check style, so that diagonal bands of these +respective patterns, regularly alternating, would extend across +the fabric.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp50" id="fig73" style="max-width: 31.3125em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig73.jpg" alt="Four-and-four"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 73.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp50" id="fig74" style="max-width: 30.75em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig74.jpg" alt="Four-and-four"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 74.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<figure class="figleft illowp25a" id="fig74a" style="max-width: 19.5625em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig74a.jpg" alt="Fancy eight-shaft"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 74a.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>139. <i>Four-and-Four Method applied to Fancy Weaves.</i>—There +are various patterns obtained in this order of threads by +using other weaves than the twill or mat. As an illustration in +these effects, <a href="#fig74">Fig. 74</a>, which has been produced in the weave +given in <a href="#fig74a">Fig. 74<span class="allsmcap">A</span></a>, may be examined. It is a small spotted +design; the minute crosses of white, surrounded by rectangles +of black, are determined in shape and dimensions +by the arrangement of warp and weft flushes composing +the crossing. The weft yarn of this pattern +is all black. Comparing this style with that +sketched in <a href="#fig72">Fig. 72</a>, which is composed of the +same order of threads, it will be observed that any +modification of weave alters the pattern resultant. +In the weave furnished in <a href="#fig74a">Fig. 74<span class="allsmcap">A</span></a>, the white threads only +show on the face of the texture where the blank spaces occur; +whereas, in the cassimere twill employed in the construction +of the sample shown in <a href="#fig72b">Fig. 72<span class="allsmcap">B</span></a>, the white warp threads float +on the face of the fabric on the same system as the black picks. +The pattern given in <a href="#fig74">Fig. 74</a> indicates how, by resorting to novel +schemes of weaving, the simplest methods of colouring may be +made to produce distinct patterns.</p> + +<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_173">[Pg 173]</span> +Employment of other weaves than the twill and mat give +equally satisfactory results. Such makes are, of course, multiplied +in proportion to the ingenuity of the designer.

They are mainly employed when +well-pronounced patterns are required in fine yarns, in which +instances they yield far more effective styles than the schemes +of shades from which they are derived. In both worsted and +cotton dress textures and tweed mantlings, they are largely used.</p> + +<p>Both systems are illustrated. The six-and-six plan, and the +styles it gives in the six-end twill, are furnished in <a href="#fig75">Figs. 75</a>, + <a href="#fig75a">75<span class="allsmcap">A</span></a>, +and <a href="#fig75b">75<span class="allsmcap">B</span></a>. + The same methods of weft colouring have been +practised as in other sketches, showing the changes resulting +from varying the weft from light to dark, and from having it +exactly like the warp. <a href="#fig76">Fig. 76</a> has been produced in the eight-shaft +twill, and is composed of 8 threads of black and 8 threads +of white in both warp and weft.

They are of three distinct styles. The +style of pattern now acquired depends on the method in +which the respective shades meet each other in the weave. +The several effects obtained, when the [3/3] twill is used, are +shown in <a href="#fig80">Fig. 80</a>. This has been developed in the weave +given in <a href="#fig80a">Fig. 80<span class="smcap">a</span></a>, which is a small check design composed +of six-end twill, running in two directions. Let the sections +of the woven pattern acquired in <a href="#fig80">Fig. 80</a> be analyzed +separately. It must be understood that the order of shades +is the same throughout, namely, that in Scheme <abbr title="One">I.</abbr> of Class B +of the Regular Simple Colourings. Hence the diversification +of style here noticed is a resultant of weave and not of +colour combinations. The different effects acquired in Sections +<i>A</i>, <i>B</i>, and <i>D</i>, show that makes of various constructions have +been employed. A distinct style obtains, for instance, in Part +<i>A</i> from Part <i>B</i>. In the former, lines of black are set at right +angles to other lines of this shade, while the grey and white +yarns form diagonals; but in <i>B</i> all the three shades run +diagonally. Section <i>C</i> is practically the same as <i>B</i>, while <i>D</i> +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_178">[Pg 178]</span> +is also similar, only twilling to the left. The parts lettered <i>A</i>, +<i>B</i>, <i>C</i>, and <i>D</i> in the design, Fig. <span class="allsmcap">80A</span>, correspond to those just +described. One other effect may be got in the six-end twill +besides those considered in this order of threads, namely, that +in which two diagonals, grey and white, twill to the left, or the +opposite to what they do in <i>A</i>, and small transverse lines of +black be set across similar vertical lines. If the positions of +the shades were altered, the grey or the white yarns might +be made to form the disconnected spots.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp30a" id="fig81" style="max-width: 18.875em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig81.jpg" alt="Three 2's"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 81.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp40b" id="fig82" style="max-width: 25.125em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig82.jpg" alt="Three-3's"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 82.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>A further principle of colouring suggested by this illustration +is, that the same plan of shades and method of weaving +are capable of yielding different woven results according to +the system on which they are combined. Thus, as has just +been indicated, without modifying the scheme of colours, the +check design in the six-shaft twill gives the effects sketched +in <a href="#fig80">Fig. 80</a>. Parts <i>A</i> and <i>D</i> are formed by one weave running +to the right, yet how different they are in character! To +what is the difference due? The design shows that the black +threads and picks do not meet each other in the same way, +for while in Part <i>A</i> of <a href="#fig80a">Fig. 80<span class="allsmcap">A</span></a> the first pick is two threads +down, three up, three down, three up, and one down; in Part +<i>D</i> it is three up and three down, so that in reality the first +pick in <i>A</i> corresponds to the fifth pick in <i>D</i>. Still, though +the order of the threads is the same in both sections, the +methods on which the colours are crossed in the respective +parts of the texture are dissimilar, hence corresponding results +cannot possibly ensue. This difference of effect, arising from +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_179">[Pg 179]</span> +commencing colouring on certain threads and picks of the +weave, increases the variety of styles obtainable in the same +order of threads and principle of intertexture.</p> + +<p>143. <i>Various Three-shade Patterns.</i>—Amongst other Simple +orders of colouring composed of three shades are those given +in Schemes <abbr title="Two">II.</abbr>, <abbr title="Three">III.</abbr>, and <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr> of Class B.

Only two of these principles are illustrated, namely, +the three-2’s and the three-3’s. It will be evident from the +sketches, <a href="#fig81">Figs. 81</a> and <a href="#fig82">82</a>, that these patterns belong to a useful +class of effects. <a href="#fig81">Fig. 81</a> is a neat form of intermingled check. +Such compounds of shades as the following may be applied:⁠—</p> + +<p class="center"><abbr title="One">I.</abbr></p> + +<table class="autotable"> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">3</td> + <td class="tdc">threads of</td> + <td class="tdl">citron (<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 9, <a href="#plate03">Plate <abbr title="Three">III.</abbr></a>).</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">3</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">olive (<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 1, <a href="#plate03">Plate <abbr title="Three">III.</abbr></a>).</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">3</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">russet (<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 7, <a href="#plate03">Plate <abbr title="Three">III.</abbr></a>).</td> +</tr> +</table> + +<p class="center"><abbr title="Two">II.</abbr></p> + +<table class="autotable"> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">3</td> + <td class="tdc">threads of</td> + <td class="tdl">dark blue (<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 7, <a href="#plate04">Plate <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a>).</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">3</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">dark olive (<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 13, <a href="#plate04">Plate <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a>).</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">3</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">dark brown (<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 1, <a href="#plate04">Plate <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></a>).</td> +</tr> +</table> + +<p class="center"><abbr title="Three">III.</abbr></p> + +<table class="autotable"> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">3</td> + <td class="tdc">threads of</td> + <td class="tdl">light olive (<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 9, <a href="#plate06">Plate <abbr title="Six">VI.</abbr></a>).</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">3</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">lilac (<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 17, <a href="#plate06">Plate <abbr title="Six">VI.</abbr></a>).</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">3</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">fawn (<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 10, <a href="#plate06">Plate <abbr title="Six">VI.</abbr></a>).</td> +</tr> +</table> + +<p>The <abbr title="One">I.</abbr> and <abbr title="Three">III.</abbr> of these colourings are suitable for dress +fabrics, but the <abbr title="Two">II.</abbr> is adapted for tweed suitings. This form +of pattern should also be developed in mixture and twist +yarns in woollen, worsted, and cotton materials.</p> + +<p>As a result of employing this scheme of shades, three sets +of checks, each formed within the other, are obtained in the +fabric. By examining <a href="#fig81">Fig. 81</a>, it will be observed there is +first the check of black; second, the check of grey; and third, +the check of white. The character of the style due to the +weave is apparent in this illustration. There is also perfect +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_180">[Pg 180]</span> +balance of shades. This feature, which mainly results from +the twill employed in the construction of the pattern, contributes +to the general character of the style. Still, it will +be noticed that the manner in which the black threads interlace +produces a different check from that resulting from the +grey or white yarns.</p> + +<p><a href="#fig82">Fig. 82</a> gives a more irregular style than <a href="#fig81">Fig. 81</a>, on account +of the weave being repeated three times, and the order of the +shades twice, before one complete pattern is acquired. This +arises from there being nine threads in the plan of shades—3 +of black, 3 of grey, and 3 of white—and six threads in the +weave. The pattern sketched in <a href="#fig82">Fig. 82</a> in one particular +resembles the preceding style, +for the shades combined form +three broken checks, but in +other characteristics it is +quite different. The element +of black is exactly proportionate +to that of grey or +white, and each shade constitutes +a well-defined series +of minute effects, which, by +repetition, bring out the check character of the style. It is a +base that is improved by diversity of colouring. In combination +with <a href="#fig81">Fig. 81</a>, wefted either three-2’s or three-3’s, it yields stripe +and check designs of a broad character.</p> + +<figure class="figleft illowp50" id="fig83" style="max-width: 25.0em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig83.jpg" alt="Hairline in 4 shades"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 83.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>144. <i>Simple Colourings composed of Four Shades.</i>—Each of +the four arrangements in Class C of Simple Colourings is +illustrated. Scheme <abbr title="One">I.</abbr> is given in <a href="#fig83">Fig. 83</a>. It forms a hairline +stripe of four colours if produced in the swansdown weave, +when the order of the wefting is 1 pick black, 1 pick dark +grey, 1 pick white, and 1 pick medium grey. This style is +applied to fancy woollens, and also to worsteds. It is a +standard colour-base for trouserings and fabrics in which a +fine line pattern is required. The same arrangement of +shades in the plain weave makes a mixture effect, and in the +common twill the colourings form a minute broken check.</p> + +<p><a href="#fig84">Fig. 84</a> results from the <abbr title="Two">II.</abbr> Scheme of Colouring given in +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_181">[Pg 181]</span> +Class C. The weave is cassimere twill, but the celtic or +mat, and other weaves of a regular construction on four and +eight shafts, are also used. Here are four more or less disconnected +checkings of colours forming an intermingled pattern, +choice in outline and soft in tone.</p> + +<p>A more pronounced style is got when the quantities of the +several shades are increased, and a weave selected of an open +structure. These points are brought out in <a href="#fig85">Fig. 85</a>, in which +the same arrangement of shades obtains as in <a href="#fig84">Fig. 84</a>, only +the quantity of each colour is increased one-third, and the six-shaft +twill substituted for the four-shaft twill. Broader effects +are therefore the result. Were this sketch repeated, to show the +outline of the pattern more clearly, it would be observable that +the black, dark grey, medium grey, and white shades all form +checkings, which, in the fabric, are quite distinct from each other. +As the order of shades here contains twelve threads, the six-shaft +twill is one of the best weaves that can be employed for regularly +and equally distributing the shades.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp40" id="fig84" style="max-width: 24.9375em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig84.jpg" alt="Four-2's"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 84.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp40" id="fig85" style="max-width: 25.125em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig85.jpg" alt="Four-3's"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 85.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>Eight-shaft makes being repeated three times before they +meet the plan of colours, give more irregular and mingled +effects.</p> + +<p>The last example in Simple Colourings obtained by combining +four shades is given in <a href="#fig86">Fig. 86</a>. It has been produced in the +Mayo weave, in <a href="#fig86a">Fig. 86<span class="smcap">a</span></a>. In common twills of more uniform +interlacings, it gives a pattern of more decided markings. The +Mayo weave has broken up the groups of fours into which the +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_182">[Pg 182]</span> +colours are divided. As a consequence, the resultant style is +characterized by softness and intermingled colouring. The +weave effect is an important feature. Either sets of hues of +different colours of the same depth, or sets of shades in one +colour, may be employed in this scheme.</p> + +<p>All the examples described in Regular Simple Colourings are +of a typical character, and in practice are diversified in colouring +and in weave.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp50" id="fig86" style="max-width: 25.0em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig86.jpg" alt="Four-2's"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 86.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp30" id="fig86a" style="max-width: 17.375em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig86a.jpg" alt="Mayo weave"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 86a.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>145. <i>Irregular Simple Colourings.</i>—These are patterns in +which the quantities of the different shades used, or the plans of +colouring as to succession of colours, are not uniform.

The former, +<a href="#fig94">Fig. 94</a>, has been developed in the six-end twill, and the latter, +<a href="#fig95">Fig. 95</a>, in the mat or celtic. They are two typical patterns. +The latter pattern appears to combine both check and figured +effects, the small detached lines of black producing the figured +appearance, and the grey shade, in combination with the black +and white, yielding the toned check characteristic. It is applicable +to all classes of simple fancies. It does not possess that +distinct check cast which is so apparent in <a href="#fig94">Fig. 94</a>. This style +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_188">[Pg 188]</span> +is really constructed on a similar principle to <a href="#fig93">Fig. 93</a>, for the +respective shades gradually decrease in quantity from the beginning +to the end of the pattern. All such arrangements admit of +two methods of colouring. In the first place, the darkest shade +may be made the principal factor, and in the second place, the +lightest shade. The intermediate colour—in this instance grey—is +invariably placed in the centre in this style of colouring.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp60" id="fig97" style="max-width: 44.3125em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig97.jpg" alt="Irregular Fig 96"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 97.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp60" id="fig98" style="max-width: 45.125em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig98.jpg" alt="Irregular effect"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 98.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>148. <i>“Irregulars” composed of Four Shades.</i>—The first of +these schemes gives an effect somewhat similar to that which +results from <a href="#fig93">Fig. 93</a>, only here the cassimere twill may be employed, +and probably a neater pattern acquired. In certain +weaves, such as <a href="#fig96">Fig. 96</a>, the Second Scheme, Class C, produces an +excellent type of suiting. It is illustrated in <a href="#fig97">Fig. 97</a>. If clearer +effects are needed, common twills should be used, such as the +six-end weave, which forms the pattern in <a href="#fig98">Fig. 98</a>. The <abbr title="Three">III.</abbr> +Scheme yields in the Mayo a very effective pattern, as is seen +in <a href="#fig99">Fig. 99</a>. Here the black yarns produce a broken line, while +the other colours constitute intermingled checkings. This is a +base, capable of being employed in the manufacture of various +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_189">[Pg 189]</span> +classes of fancy textures. Scheme <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr>, <a href="#fig100">Fig. 100</a>, is a neat method +of grouping shades for fancy checks. The pattern sketched has +been produced in the sixteen-shaft diagonal (<a href="#fig100a">Fig. 100<span class="smcap">a</span></a>), but it +might also be worked in common twill and mat weaves. Such a +diagonal adds, however, to the attractiveness of the intermixture +of shades. The characteristics of this example are due to the +system on which the threads of warp and weft interlace. The +pattern is a species of shaded check. From the tinted white to the +black there is a graduated shade of greys, and in the following +sets of colourings the same mellow toning would be observed.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp60" id="fig99" style="max-width: 25.0em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig99.jpg" alt="Irregular effect Mayo"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 99.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp45a" id="fig100" style="max-width: 24.8125em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig100.jpg" alt="Shaded check"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 100.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp40" id="fig100a" style="max-width: 25.0em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig100a.jpg" alt="Weave for Fig 100"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 100a.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<table class="autotable"> +<tr> + <td class="tdc" colspan="4"><abbr title="One">I.</abbr></td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">4</td> + <td class="tdc">threads of</td> + <td class="tdl">black.</td> + <td class="tdl"></td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">2</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">dark</td> + <td class="tdl">brown.</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">2</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">olive</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">4</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">light</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">2</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">olive</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">2</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">dark</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> +</tr> +</table> + <br> +<table class="autotable"> +<tr> + <td class="tdc" colspan="4"><abbr title="Two">II.</abbr></td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">4</td> + <td class="tdc">threads of</td> + <td class="tdl">black.</td> + <td class="tdl"></td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">2</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">dark</td> + <td class="tdl">grey.</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">2</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">light</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">4</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl" colspan="2">white.</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">2</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">light</td> + <td class="tdl">grey.</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">2</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">dark</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> +</tr> +</table> +<br> +<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_190">[Pg 190]</span></p> + +<table class="autotable"> +<tr> + <td class="tdc" colspan="4"><abbr title="Three">III.</abbr></td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">4</td> + <td class="tdc">threads of</td> + <td class="tdc">dark blue and</td> + <td class="tdl">dark grey twist.</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">2</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">medium grey twist.</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">2</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">light grey twist.</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">4</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">white twist.</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">2</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">light grey twist.</td> +</tr> +<tr> + <td class="tdr">2</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdc">„</td> + <td class="tdl">medium grey twist.</td> +</tr> +</table> + +<p>This colour-base may be applied to cotton textures and light +fabrics, when the colourings should +be considerably brighter than those +enumerated.

With only two shades it is possible to obtain +varied effects in this style of woven colouring. When three or +more shades are used, and several simple methods of grouping +shades practised, though the weave may be of a common twill +or mat description, Compound patterns may be quite elaborate +in arrangement. The elaborateness of the style resultant is +determined by several factors, such as the character of the types, +number of the Simple Colourings combined, and the diversity +of the shades employed. The simpler the schemes of colours +selected, the fewer the elements of the compound, the more +ordinary in cast and aspect is the pattern acquired. Still, the +commonest groupings of shades, even when combined on the +simplest system, form woven styles of considerable richness of +composition. One example, <a href="#fig102">Fig. 102</a>, is suggestive of the characteristics +of this species of textile colouring. It is the most +elementary type of compound, resulting from combining Methods +<abbr title="One">I.</abbr> and <abbr title="Two">II.</abbr>, supplied in <a href="#Table_9">Table <abbr title="Nine">IX.</abbr></a>, and consisting of black and +white. But it is a pattern which comprises several styles of +minute effects. It is divided into four rectangular spaces, <i>A</i>, +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_193">[Pg 193]</span> +<i>B</i>, <i>C</i>, and <i>D</i>: Each square is formed of a different kind of +textural design. Thus, in Section <i>A</i>, which is composed of two +threads of black and two threads of white in both warp and +weft, it will be noticed there are small irregular checkings +forming vertical lines; in <i>B</i>, where the one-and-one order of +warp colouring is crossed by the two-and-two order of wefting, +minute figures, or spots +of white, separately surrounded +with black, occur; +in Section <i>C</i> the same figures +obtain as in <i>B</i>, only they are +inverted, owing to the warp +and weft colourings meeting +each other in the reverse +way to what they do +in <i>B</i>; Section <i>D</i> consists +of small step-twill effects. +So there are thus, in this +pattern, four textural results +so associated as to +form a neat check design, +which is producible in +woollen, worsted, silk, and cotton yarns. It may be diminished +or increased in size, and modified in various ways. For example, +Checks <i>A</i> and <i>C</i> may be double the size of <i>B</i> and <i>D</i>; or several +striped patterns may be acquired by using Sections <i>C</i> and <i>D</i> +together and Sections <i>A</i> and <i>B</i>—the spaces of each effect being +determined by the class of fabric in which the style is produced. +For trouserings they must be comparatively small, but for dress +textures and mantlings they may be some inches in width. In +such shades and tints as are appended, both the original pattern +and the modifications named may be developed:⁠—</p> + +<table class="autotable"> +<tr> +<td class="tdc" colspan="7"><abbr title="One">I.</abbr></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdl" rowspan="2">For 24 threads.</td> +<td class="tdl">⎧</td> +<td class="tdl">1</td> +<td class="tdc">thread of</td> +<td class="tdc">Shade</td> +<td class="tdr">2,</td> +<td class="tdc">Pl. <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdl">⎩</td> +<td class="tdl">1</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdr">8,</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdl" rowspan="2">For 24 threads.</td> +<td class="tdl">⎧</td> +<td class="tdl">2</td> +<td class="tdc">threads of</td> +<td class="tdc">Shade</td> +<td class="tdr">2,</td> +<td class="tdc">Pl. <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdl">⎩</td> +<td class="tdl">2</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdr">8,</td> +<td class="tdc">„<br></td> +</tr> +</table> +<br> +<table class="autotable"> +<tr> +<td class="tdc" colspan="7"><abbr title="Two">II.</abbr> + <span class="pagenum" id="Page_194">[Pg 194]</span></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdl" rowspan="2">For 24 threads.</td> +<td class="tdl">⎧</td> +<td class="tdl">1</td> +<td class="tdc">thread of</td> +<td class="tdc">Shade</td> +<td class="tdr">7,</td> +<td class="tdc">Pl. <abbr title="Six">VI.</abbr></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdl">⎩</td> +<td class="tdl">1</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdr">13,</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdl" rowspan="2">For 24 threads.</td> +<td class="tdl">⎧</td> +<td class="tdl">2</td> +<td class="tdc">threads of</td> +<td class="tdc">Shade</td> +<td class="tdr">7,</td> +<td class="tdc">Pl. <abbr title="Six">VI.</abbr></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdl">⎩</td> +<td class="tdl">2</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdr">13,</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +</tr> +</table> +<br> +<table class="autotable"> +<tr> +<td class="tdc" colspan="7"><abbr title="Three">III.</abbr></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdl" rowspan="2">For 24 threads.</td> +<td class="tdl">⎧</td> +<td class="tdl">1</td> +<td class="tdc">thread of</td> +<td class="tdc">Tint</td> +<td class="tdr">4,</td> +<td class="tdc">Pl. <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdl">⎩</td> +<td class="tdl">1</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdr">4,</td> +<td class="tdc">  „  <abbr title="Six">VI.</abbr></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdl" rowspan="2">For 24 threads.</td> +<td class="tdl">⎧</td> +<td class="tdl">2</td> +<td class="tdc">threads of</td> +<td class="tdc">Tint</td> +<td class="tdr">4,</td> +<td class="tdc">Pl. <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdl">⎩</td> +<td class="tdl">2</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdr">4,</td> +<td class="tdc">  „  <abbr title="Six">VI.</abbr></td> +</tr> +</table> +<br> +<table class="autotable"> +<tr> +<td class="tdc" colspan="7"><abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdl" rowspan="2">For 24 threads.</td> +<td class="tdl">⎧</td> +<td class="tdc">1</td> +<td class="tdc">thread of</td> +<td class="tdr">Tint</td> +<td class="tdc">10,</td> +<td class="tdl">Pl. <abbr title="Six">VI.</abbr></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdl">⎩</td> +<td class="tdl">1</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdr">16,</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdl" rowspan="2">For 24 threads.</td> +<td class="tdl">⎧</td> +<td class="tdl">2</td> +<td class="tdc">threads of</td> +<td class="tdc">Tint</td> +<td class="tdr">10,</td> +<td class="tdc">Pl. <abbr title="Six">VI.</abbr></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdl">⎩</td> +<td class="tdl">2</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdr">16,</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +</tr> +</table> + +<p class="unindent">These colourings, with the exception of <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 1, are more +suitable for dress and fancy fabrics than for trousering and +coating textures.

The schemes of +shades employed in this construction are the <abbr title="One">I.</abbr>, <abbr title="Two">II.</abbr>, and <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr> +Methods in Class A of the Simple Colourings. They constitute, +in the fabric, nine distinct effects. These must be closely +examined, in order that the principles of pattern design involved +in the formation of the Compound style may be understood. +Commence with the three effects succeeding each other in Bracket +<i>A</i>. First, there is a square of similar minute figuring to that +noticed in <i>C</i> of <a href="#fig102">Fig. 102</a>; second, a rectangle of vertical stripes +composed of neat markings; and third, a repetition of the effect +seen in <i>D</i>, <a href="#fig102">Fig. 102</a>. Next, consider the types included in +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_195">[Pg 195]</span> +Bracket <i>B</i>. The first space here is a composition of the small +checks referred to in Section <i>A</i> of the former pattern; this +adjoins a square filled in with vertical stripes; and then follows +a space of similar dimensions, and of the same species of effects, +as characterizes <i>B</i> of the preceding style. Both the <i>A</i> and <i>B</i> +series of the effects comprise two types of pattern like those +composing Fig. 102, but in the <i>C</i> and <i>E</i> groups five entirely +distinct types of textural work are developed. Two of these—the +two vertical stripes—have +been alluded to. +The horizontal stripes, +comprised in Bracket <i>C</i> +have not been described. +They are similar to the +stripes seen in Bracket +<i>E</i>, only they are formed +across instead of lengthways +of the fabric. +Between the rectangular +spaces of these effects +there is a square of black +and white plaid. It may +be useful to indicate +how the several effects +forming this compound +may be utilized on other +systems than that illustrated. The space of black and white +checkings may be enlarged. But it is not simply in the form +of checks these sets of colourings are combinable, for they +may be associated on such principles as to yield an extensive +range of stripe designs. Take, for example, the series of effects +included in Bracket <i>A</i>. These of themselves make a neat stripe, +especially if choice colourings are selected. Parts <i>D</i>, <i>E</i>, and <i>F</i> +may be varied in dimensions according to the class of texture +being manufactured. About half an inch of <i>D</i>, an inch of <i>E</i>, +and half an inch of <i>F</i> makes a useful base. In the shades and +tints furnished for the preceding example—<a href="#fig102">Fig. 102</a>—this form +of stripe produces attractive styles.</p> + +<figure class="figright illowp50a" id="fig103" style="max-width: 25.0em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig103.jpg" alt="Regular compound check"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 103.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_196">[Pg 196]</span> +The group of types in <i>B</i> should be similarly employed as that +constituting <i>A</i>. After <i>B</i> sections have been separated from the +rest of the pattern they may be used thus for a dress fabric:—A +band of two inches of the effect given over <i>F</i>, and bands of one +inch in width of the two adjacent types. If the style is applied +to trouserings, smaller quantities of each type should be employed, +and some fancy twist yarns added to the shades forming the +bulk of the pattern, to give freshness and diversity of colouring.</p> + +<p>The series of broken or irregular types included in Bracket <i>C</i> +may also be worked into stripes for mantlings. In woollen +yarns and mellow colourings, these broad effects in bands of +about an inch in width yield effective patterns. Toned browns, +slates, drabs, light greys, light olives, and lavenders are appropriate +colours for this kind of textiles. Mixture yarns, of which +several illustrations are given below, are also applicable.</p> + +<table class="autotable"> +<tr> +<td class="tdc" colspan="3"><abbr title="One">I.</abbr></td> +</tr> +<tr>

102</a> and <a href="#fig103">103</a>—that, by +combining several schemes of Simple Colouring, patterns are +obtained rich in diversity of types of textural design, though +the number of shades combined may be limited. This is not +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_197">[Pg 197]</span> +usually the case in Simple Colourings. If the shades in such +arrangements are not numerous, the resultant effect is invariably +plain; whereas, it is obvious that in Compounds, even should +one weave only be employed and two shades combined, styles +full of detail and minute textural patterns are producible. They +represent an economical method of developing design in woven +goods, for they are neither complicated in weave structure nor +colour composition.</p> + +<p>153. <i>Compounds and Weave Combinations compared.</i>—Patterns +of a Compound class, being composed of two or more +Simple schemes of colouring, may be compared to designs +resulting from combining several small weaves or crossings. +Compound colourings bear the same relation to the general +classes of coloured patterns, as combined weave designs bear to +the effects obtainable by diversifying the systems of crossing +warp and weft yarns. Thus, the former are the resultants of +combining elementary schemes of colouring, and the latter the +resultants of uniting elements of weaving. Moreover, the +complexity of weave compounds is proportionate to the variety +of weaves combined, and the class of the elementary schemes +of intertexture employed. The complex arrangement and fulness +of detail of Compound Colourings are determined by the +number of “Simple Orders of Colouring” entering into their +composition, and by the character of the methods of colouring +utilized.</p> + +<p>When constructing weave combinations, only those weaves +should be used which fit with each other correctly, and which +yield a fabric regular in structure; and when forming compounds, +those schemes of elementary colouring should only be +combined which produce a properly balanced style.</p> + +<p>154. <i>Utility of a Practical Knowledge of the Woven Effects of +Simple Colourings.</i>—Before attempting to combine simple +methods of arranging shades, in the construction of Compound +patterns, the textural results of the various elementary systems +of grouping colours already described should have been ascertained, +if possible, by loom experiments. For the purpose of +facilitating the combination of Simple Colourings, it will be +found advantageous to make a collection of the woven patterns +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_198">[Pg 198]</span> +resulting from the adoption of the Schemes given in Paragraph +<a href="#para149">149</a> (see <a href="#plate22">Plate <abbr title="Twenty-two">XXII.</abbr></a>). The utility of such a series of woven +specimens may be indicated. Supposing, for example, a pattern +were required in the cassimere twill in which the two-and-two +and the one-and-one schemes of colouring were to appear. Then, +by consulting the woven results of these two principles of +grouping yarns, some calculation could be made of the actual +aspect of the pattern to be originated. This, of course, is an +advantage in designing. The most effective styles are those +which the designer, by the aid of his technical knowledge, has +been able to partially imagine the woven effect of, when the +patterns were in the theoretical form.</p> + +<p>155. <i>Compound Patterns Subjective to the Nature of the +Fabric Manufactured.</i>—Another factor which affects the +selection of “Simple Colourings” in the construction of Compounds, +is the class or description of fabric being produced. In +some species of cotton and dress textures, bold and broad effects +are required, necessitating the use of the larger types of +elementary colourings; but in ordinary fabrics the neatest and +smallest types are suitable. This may be regarded as a general +rule, but the degree of colour contrast, and the fineness of the +structure of the fabric, in some measure also modify the type of +shade-arrangements most appropriate for any specific class of +fabrics. It is chiefly a question of the size of the pattern +required, which governs the dimensions of the various effects +combined in its construction. So that, granting the class of +fabric has been selected, and that its structure is known, then +those Simple Colourings may be applied which will give a +compound style of requisite textural composition, form, and +size.</p> + +<p>156. <i>Types of Compounds.</i>—Compounds, like Simple +Colourings, may be divided into Regulars and Irregulars, which +may be subdivided thus: Compounds composed of two elementary +schemes of colouring, and Compounds composed of three or more +elementary schemes of colouring. Each of these subdivisions +includes styles of two, three, or four shades. Examples in these +several classes of Compounds are supplied in the Table given +below:—</p> + +<p class="p2 center"><span class="pagenum" id="Page_199">[Pg 199]</span> +<a id="Table_11"></a> +<span

A very mellow sort +of style results from this system of colouring. The surface of +the texture is one uniform tint, slightly diversified with the +twist yarns, which develop the details of the pattern, due to +the method of grouping the threads. This species of colouring +is soft in tone and artistic in composition, being equally applicable +to woollen, worsted, and cotton fabrics. In cottons, more pronounced +colouring may be adopted, such shades as follow being +useful: brown and slate, pink and white, and deep blue and +pale lavender.</p> + +<p>The woven effects of Scheme <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr> are given in + <a href="#fig104">Figs. 104</a>, <a href="#fig105">105</a>, +and <a href="#fig106">106</a>. The weave employed in the production of these +patterns is an eight-shaft twill. Whatever twill were used, +providing it flushed the warp and weft equally, the general +aspect of the patterns would be as here illustrated. In order to +afford as clear an insight into the principles of Compound Colourings +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_203">[Pg 203]</span> +as possible, the effect of changing the weft on the pattern +resultant, when the system of warping is not varied, is also +shown in these examples. All the three patterns have the same +arrangement of warp yarns, but in <a href="#fig104">Fig. 104</a> the weft is white; +<a href="#fig105">Fig. 105</a>, black; and in <a href="#fig106">Fig. 106</a> it is like the warp. If the weft +contrasted in hue with both the shades of warp yarns, quite a +new type of effect would be acquired. Supposing, for illustration, +it were blue. Such +an alteration would +completely change the +appearance of the +fabric. Neither the +black nor the white +stripes would be solid, +but the former would be half black and half blue, and the latter +half white and half blue. However the weft might be varied; +the form of the pattern would remain the same—that is to say, +it would always consist in the stripes (<a href="#fig104">Figs. 104</a> and <a href="#fig105">105</a>) of +four broad lines and two narrow lines, and in the check (<a href="#fig106">Fig. 106</a>) +of sixteen large and sixteen small squares.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp60" id="fig104" style="max-width: 25.0em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig104.jpg" alt="Regular compound stripe"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 104.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp60" id="fig105" style="max-width: 25.0em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig105.jpg" alt="Regular compound stripe"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 105.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>Considering that +only two shades are +used, the patterns are +full of textural detail. +The series of effects +given are useful in +textile designing.

In the check there is +much variety of work. In addition to the solid squares of black +and white of two sizes, there are rectangles composed of twills of +black and white blended, of several dimensions and shapes.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp50" id="fig106" style="max-width: 25.0em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig106.jpg" alt="Regular compound check"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 106.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp50" id="fig107" style="max-width: 25.0em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig107.jpg" alt="Regular compound stripe"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 107.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp50" id="fig108" style="max-width: 25.0em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig108.jpg" alt="Regular compound check"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 108.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>158. <i>Patterns composed of Two Types and Three Shades.</i>—Scheme +<abbr title="One">I.</abbr> of Class A of the Regular Compounds, in the styles +composed of three colours and of two Simple types, gives somewhat +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_204">[Pg 204]</span> +mellow and subdued effects. The patterns sketched in +<a href="#fig107">Figs. 107</a> and <a href="#fig108">108</a> illustrate the style of design arrangement +resultant when this method of colour-grouping is adopted. The +stripe pattern has a mingled appearance. Parts <i>A</i> of both the +check and the stripe are composed of minute work, which neatly +contrasts with the broader and more distinctly pronounced +effects comprised in Section <i>B</i>. The patterns have a softer +aspect and tone than if only two shades had been employed, the +third shade adding diversity of colouring and freshness of the +style. <a href="#fig107">Fig. 107</a> is woven with a white weft, and <a href="#fig108">Fig. 108</a> with +exactly the same order of weft as warp shades. The two Simple +schemes, forming this Compound, combine satisfactorily. The +three-odd-thread grouping, constituting the <i>A</i> sections of the +fabric, yields a species of textural effect which affords prominence +to the small spaces of black, grey, and white composing parts <i>B</i>. +There is, in these samples, congruity of effects. This is one of +the main elements of a well-arranged compound. It is a feature +of all descriptions of designing that the styles amalgamated +should suitably develop each other, and yield a well-balanced +and effective scheme of ornamentation. Even in the smallest +textural effects, resulting from combining various systems of +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_205">[Pg 205]</span> +shade-arrangement, this principle of design has to be taken into +account. For example, the check style given in <a href="#fig111">Fig. 111</a> would +not form a satisfactory pattern if combined with the check in +<a href="#fig108">Fig. 108</a>; although both styles are composed of similar arrangements +of shades, and have precisely the same colour features. +The character of the respective checkings is, however, very +different. In <a href="#fig111">Fig. 111</a> the patches of colours are so grouped as +to yield a broad and clearly-pronounced series of effects, whereas +<a href="#fig108">Fig. 108</a> is a compound of various minute types of woven design; +hence the incongruity which would ensue from their amalgamation. +The elements of <a href="#fig107">Figs. 107</a> and <a href="#fig108">108</a> are, on the other hand, +suitable for this purpose. The stripe is a style that may be +utilized in various ways. Should, for instance, bands <i>A</i> and <i>B</i> +be varied in width, a range of useful patterns for dress and +mantling textures may be produced. Thus, stripes averaging +from two to four inches in width, in mellow shades of twist or +self-coloured yarns arranged on this system, are developed largely +in worsted, woollen, and cotton materials.</p> + +<p>In the check, <a href="#fig108">Fig. 108</a>, the development of this Compound +scheme of colouring is shown. It is made up of the two types +lettered <i>A</i> and <i>B</i>. Several groups of shades are given below illustrative +of the type of colouring appropriate for the respective +textures named.</p> + +<div class="small"> +<p class="center"> +<span

Here it may be an adaptation or an +origination of a scheme of shades—the structure of the weave +being the principal modifying factor. It is not now a matter +of the application of a system of colouring, irrespective of any +particular type of weave, but a question of employing that +assortment of colours which will prove most effective in a certain +design. The build of the fabric, the method of intertexture, and +the weave, are fixed factors; and it becomes a problem of what +grouping of threads will yield the most satisfactory style and +best emphasize the design elements. All weaves employed in +developing colour effects in simple fabrics belong to one of the +orders of crossings given below:⁠—</p> + +<p class="hangwide"> <abbr title="One">I.</abbr> Weaves in which there is a preponderance of warp.</p> +<p class="hangwide"> <abbr title="Two">II.</abbr> Weaves in which there is a preponderance of weft.</p> +<p class="hangwide"><abbr title="Three">III.</abbr> Weaves in which the warp and weft effects are equally pronounced. +</p> + +<p class="unindent">The <abbr title="One">I.</abbr> class of weaves, which may be termed warp effects, includes +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_221">[Pg 221]</span> +corkscrews, sateens, buckskins, certain species of diagonals +and twilled mats; the <abbr title="Two">II.</abbr> class—weft weaves—is not so comprehensive, +being composed mainly of ribs or cords, twills and +small diagonals. A very extensive series of fancy makes of +various types is found in the <abbr title="Three">III.</abbr> class.</p> + +<p>But in addition to these important orders of intertexture, +practised in the construction of single-make fabrics requiring +special plans of colouring, there are some kinds of backed and +double weaves that are so unique in build as to need exceptional +treatment in a colour sense. This, however, is not so largely +the case in backed as in double-make cloths. Backed, and also +some types of double textures, such as trouserings, coatings, and +simple effects in mantlings, are practically coloured on the same +principles as single cloths. The under surface of these builds of +woven styles is occasionally distinctive in shade-arrangement, +but the face generally corresponds in scheme of colouring to +single-make textures. In the combinations of double weaves, +the exceptions to this method occur. Double-plain fabrics, for +example, are coloured on quite distinct principles from some other +descriptions of pattern. The double-plain weave is adapted to the +development of a specific range of style, due to the utility of a +formula of colouring only applicable to its structure. Some other +types of double weaves have also their peculiar orders of shades.</p> + +<p>163. <i>Colouring of Corkscrews.</i>—As corkscrews form one of +the principal types of warp weaves, the application of colours +to their construction may be primarily considered. The methods +of colouring adopted here, relate collaterally to other weaves in +which the warp effect is the most clearly developed on the face +of the fabric. Corkscrews are adapted for several orders of +warp colouring. Fancy shades are specially distinct when +introduced into the warp of textures in which such weaves are +used, making strong contrasts and high colourings in the warp +unnecessary. But while these weaves thus afford ample provision +for various methods of tinting in the warp, they neutralize +the effects of weft colouring. This might be changed from +black to dark blue in the common corkscrew without the +character of the face of the fabric undergoing any perceptible +modification in hue. If, for example, the warp and weft were, +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_222">[Pg 222]</span> +in such a weave, twelve threads of brown and twelve threads of +blue, a stripe, and not a check, pattern would result. Of course +in a common twill this colouring would yield a decided check. +There are two reasons why in corkscrews, warp cords, and similar +weaves, such a scheme of shades forms a stripe—first, because +textures composed of this class of weaves possess a warp face; +and second, because they, if properly made, contain a larger +proportion of warp than weft threads to the inch; hence the +weft yarns are almost entirely concealed by the warp. On these +grounds it will be obvious that variety of pattern in these +weaves, when due to colouring, is a product of the warp. To +the typical methods, therefore, of grouping fancy shades in the +warp for corkscrew and kindred weaves, attention has mainly to +be directed. In such instances, the weft is the factor which binds +the threads together, and produces or builds, in conjunction with +the warp yarns, the fabric; and hence it only to a small degree +affects the style of the pattern, and consequently is a minor consideration +in producing the design.</p> + +<figure class="figleft illowp25" id="fig125" style="max-width: 21.9375em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig125.jpg" alt="Corkscrew weave"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 125.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>Patterns illustrative of the ordinary methods of colouring +applied to corkscrew weaves are given in <a href="#fig125">Figs. +125</a>, <a href="#fig126-127">126</a>, and <a href="#fig126-127">127</a>. The style in <a href="#fig125">Fig. 125</a> is a +combination of three effects, viz., of the bands +of solid colour, of the stripes <i>A</i>, and of the +stripes <i>B</i>. The textural types, seen in the +lettered sections, are due to two distinct but +simple schemes of grouping shades, namely, the one-and-one and +the two-and-one systems. They frequently occur in this weave, +giving neat effects.

+corkscrews, the weaves are altered in the principles of construction. +Take an example. The weave supplied in <a href="#fig128">Fig. 128</a> is in +reality a corkscrew, for should the ⊠’s be erased and the ◼’s be +added, the weave, though occupying twenty-four threads,—which +is not a number on which this type of weave is usually constructed,—would +possess the main features of this description of +twill. But the weave must now be considered as being composed +of the ⊡’s and ⊠’s only—the ◼’s corresponding to the ◻’s. The +thread-and-thread scheme of warping in this modified corkscrew +has a different effect from what it has in the common type of this +weave. Taking the shades to be brown and slate, and the weft +blue, a pattern containing four species of work results. First, +there are the two fine twills of the respective shades of warp +yarn; and, second, a furrow of intermingled colouring, due to +the solid floats of warp in the design. These effects are purely +warp products. In addition to these, a fine diagonal of blue, +resulting from the flushes of weft, is also formed, so that an +alteration of this kind in the corkscrew system of twilling +considerably increases the diversity of work producible by a +simple arrangement of shades.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp70" id="fig128" style="max-width: 31.25em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig128.jpg" alt="Modified corkscrew weave"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 128.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp30" id="fig129" style="max-width: 31.25em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig129.jpg" alt="Pattern for Fig 128"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 129.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>Another very useful style might be developed in this crossing +(<a href="#fig128">Fig. 128</a>) by warping nine threads of a dark and three threads +of a light shade of yarn, and weaving with a medium colour of +weft.

Patterns are produced by using weaves which +are tinted on principles harmonizing with the scheme of interlacing. +Such an example is given in the upper section of +<a href="#fig130">Fig. 130</a>. A neat combination of textural effects has here been +obtained by the employment of an uncommon weave. (See +<a href="#fig131">Fig. 131</a>.) The scheme of colouring for this style belongs to +the elementary class, being as follows in both warp and weft:⁠—</p> + +<table class="autotable"> +<tr> +<td class="tdr" rowspan="3"><i>A.</i> For 24 threads.</td> +<td class="tdl">⎧</td> +<td class="tdl">1</td> +<td class="tdc">thread of</td> +<td class="tdl">black.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdl">⎨</td> +<td class="tdl">1</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">grey.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdl">⎩</td> +<td class="tdl">1</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">black.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr" rowspan="3"><i>B.</i> For 24 threads.</td> +<td class="tdl">⎧</td> +<td class="tdl">1</td> +<td class="tdc">thread of</td> +<td class="tdl">grey.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdl">⎨</td> +<td class="tdl">1</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">black.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdl">⎩</td> +<td class="tdl">1</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">grey.</td> +</tr> +</table> + +<p class="unindent"><span class="pagenum" id="Page_227">[Pg 227]</span> +Hence it is the weave which has given the novelty of cast to +the pattern. In a simple twill it would yield an ordinary +style, but in this weave (<a href="#fig131">Fig. 131</a>) it forms a series of minute +effects. The weave is of a check type, and is workable on twelve +shafts. In the sections marked ▨ and ⌻, the weft floats on the +surface of the texture, while in the sections marked ◻, the warp +effect is clearly emphasized. Both warp and weft are equally +prominent. But as the method of floating these threads, groups +the weft effects and the warp effects alternately, the result is a +pattern possessing minute markings of an interesting character. +These are the products of three shades. If a twill or mat had +been used, this diversity of pattern composition by three colours +and simple plan of shade-arrangement would not have been +possible; so that it is obvious that new systems of weaving on a +small and regular base may be employed in woollen textures to +advantage, if novel patterns are required. The intermingled +check characteristic of the style is due to the system of grouping +the shades. Thus the plan of colouring is in two parts; in +<i>A</i> black is the principal, and grey the secondary shade; and in +<i>B</i> <i lang="la">vice versâ</i>. By this means, in some parts of the fabric a dark +or black groundwork is figured with grey, and in others a grey +ground with black. The scheme of colouring here illustrated is +also applicable to worsted and cotton as well as to the woollen +textures.</p> + +<p>A different style is supplied in <abbr title="Numbers">Nos.</abbr> 1 and 2, + in <a href="#plate23a">Plate <abbr title="Twenty-three">XXIII.</abbr></a>, +to that described. Its novelty is, however, due to the use of an +uncommon weave; this is of a fancy twill order, being arranged +on the base of the following plan of interlacing, which is the +first pick of the design:—[3\1] [3\2] [2\2] [1\3] [1\2] [2\2].</p> + +<p>Had, for instance, the six-end twill been used, the patterns +would have lacked that richness of style and newness of colour +by which they are characterized. It may therefore be understood +that in woollens of a suiting and costume class, the weave may +be arranged to add to the freshness of the styles obtainable from +given methods of colouring. The scheme of shade-grouping in +these samples is:—</p> + +<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_228">[Pg 228]</span></p> + +<table class="autotable"> +<tr> +<td class="tdc" colspan="3"><i>Pattern 1</i> (<a href="#plate23a">Plate <abbr title="Twenty-three">XXIII.</abbr></a>).</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">4</td> +<td class="tdc">threads of</td> +<td class="tdl">fawn.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">2</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">olive brown.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">2</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">brown.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">4</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">dark brown.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">2</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">brown.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">2</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">olive brown.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr"></td> +<td class="tdc"></td> +<td class="tdl"></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr" colspan="3"><br><i>Pattern 2</i> (<a href="#plate23a">Plate <abbr title="Twenty-three">XXIII.</abbr></a>).</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">4</td> +<td class="tdc">threads of</td> +<td class="tdl">grey.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">2</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">olive green.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">2</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">dark brown.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">4</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">blue.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">2</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">dark brown.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">2</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">olive green.</td> +</tr> +</table> + +<p>The order of the weft colouring for Pattern 1 is the same as +the warp; but in Pattern 2 slate takes the place of olive green. +By varying the weftings, modifications of these effects may be +acquired.

Even if the weave were of a common class, +the result of this series of shades would be a broken, irregular +style; but the design is arranged on a base to give a mixed +distribution of colouring. The warp and weft cords in the plan +are useful weaves for mingling fancy shades, and so are the +twilled weaves combined. Add to these characteristics the +arrangement of the design, which groups the several weaves +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_230">[Pg 230]</span> +into small figures of different forms. The style is workable in +worsted, woollen, and cotton yarns, and in twists as well as +self-colours. This assortment of weaves is appropriate for +patterns in which mingled colouring, combined with a definite +species of marking or textural form of effect, is required.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp80" id="fig133" style="max-width: 31.25em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig133.jpg" alt="Diagonal pattern"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 133.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>167. <i>Diagonals.</i>—As a rule, diagonals are but plainly coloured. +Being complex in weave-construction, they do not require +elaborate colouring; moreover, they are frequently of such a +character as to yield intricate and textural patterns in the +simplest arrangements and contrasts of shades; there are, however, +some exceptions. Certain important types can only be satisfactorily +developed when specific colouring is practised. Some +illustrations in these may be considered. First, suppose two +corkscrews—flushing the warp and weft respectively—were +combined in a diagonal pattern of medium size. This arrangement +of weaves, if the yarns were grouped on the one-and-one +method in both warp and weft, would form a style in which one +section of the diagonal would be developed in the warp and the +other in the weft. By arranging the bands of the diagonal to run +at a different angle from the twills of either the warp or weft +corkscrew of which it is composed, an additional effect is obtained, +than would have been the case if they had moved in a line with +the twills. Regarding the application of this principle of pattern +development, it relates to all diagonals composed of two or more +simple weaves. One of the methods of applying colour to such +designs is to adopt a simple scheme of shade-grouping, which +develops neat but contrasting effects in the several makes +combined.</p> + +<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_231">[Pg 231]</span></p> +<figure class="figcenter illowp100" id="fig134" style="max-width: 43.75em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig134.jpg" alt="Section of design Fig 133"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 134.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p><i>168. Diagonal composed of Plain and Double Plain Makes.</i>—In +<a href="#fig133">Fig. 133</a> is furnished an example of how simple schemes of +colouring may be made to produce quite a diversity of effects +running diagonally in the fabric. This style has been developed +by arranging the colours one thread of +white and one thread of black, in the warping +and wefting alike, and constructing the +design on the base of the sixteen picks +given in <a href="#fig134">Fig. 134</a>. It is unnecessary to +explain here how the several effects have +resulted, as the principles involved in producing +the types <i>A</i> and <i>B</i>, which are composed +of plain weave, are already understood; +while the varieties of patterns +obtainable in the double-plain makes, forming +Sections <i>C</i> and <i>D</i>, will be considered in +a subsequent chapter. Still, it may be +observed that in solid shades such a grouping +of weaves would give but an indefinite +pattern, one lacking character and precision +of outline. The weaves employed in this +example, are the only ones which can be +made to develop effects of this order, +though in some types of simple, double, +or compound weaves, such figured designs +are producible by dissimilar schemes of +colouring. There are certain restrictions +to the methods of combination. Figuring, +requiring large spaces of the double-plain +makes, is not feasible; these crossings are +necessarily looser and more open in structure +than the single weaves, and may therefore +only be used in comparatively small quantities; +moreover, the weaves may not be grouped in the stripe form, +or the texture will not be satisfactory as to firmness and soundness, +nor will it weave regularly. The fact that the weaves in the +example run diagonally, equalizes the interlacing of the warp and +weft and ensures the construction of a uniformly-built fabric.</p> + +<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_232">[Pg 232]</span> +169. <i>Stripe and Check Colourings on Diagonals.</i>—Other +methods of colouring weaves of a diagonal construction comprise +the development of stripe and check effects, in neatly-toned +shades. Coatings, dresses, and vestings comprise patterns of +this order. It is necessary, in order to have the same weight +of colouring in both warp and weft of such styles, to modify +the design on those threads and picks on which the fancies +occur. Unless this is done, the effect produced is irregular +and imperfect. By, however, altering the design where these +bright striping or checking shades are added, complete balance +of colouring is acquired both across and lengthways of the +fabric.</p> + +<p>170. <i>Methods of Colouring Fancy Weaves for Cottons or Silks.</i>—Generally, +these require brighter and more cheerful combinations +of shades than woollen or worsted fabrics, but the weaves, when +of a similar construction to those used in the production of these +textures, are coloured on similar principles. It is in the selection +of the shades where specific treatment is required. There +are, however, some specially-constructed weaves employed in the +manufacture of fancy cottons, and these have to be coloured +according to their principles of arrangement and the type of +pattern they are required to form.</p> + +<p>Amongst these weaves are small fancy effects, such as those +illustrated in <a href="#fig135">Figs. 135</a> and <a href="#fig136">136</a>, and leno and gauze combinations. +Reference may, in the first place, be made to <a href="#fig135">Figs. 135</a> +and <a href="#fig136">136</a>. The former is a striped pattern composed of two +sateen weaves. The alternate bands have warp- and weft-flushed +grounds. On the weft-flushed surface a warp spot is +formed, and on the warp-flushed surface a weft spot. A +marked and well-emphasized contrast of effects is thus secured. +The arrangement is an excellent one, and capable of many +modifications. Section <i>B</i> might, for example, be repeated several +times, or the whole design might be enlarged with good results. +A third variation is possible by converting the pattern into a +check. A light warp and a medium shade of weft should be +used. Supposing, for instance, the warp were light blue and the +weft medium blue, then stripe <i>A</i> would consist of light blue +ornamented with small spots of medium blue, whereas stripe <i>B</i> +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_233">[Pg 233]</span> +would consist of medium blue mainly, with light blue spotting. +This method of colouring is useful where the designs are arranged +on a base of this character. Another plan of introducing fancy +shades in such weaves involves the use of two shades in the +warp—one for stripe <i>A</i> and another for stripe <i>B</i>.</p> + +<p>One further method of varying styles of this kind may be +mentioned. Add to the design as here given a band of fancy +twill, which might be coloured with bright yarns in the warp, +and the sateen sections plainly coloured, allowing of clear and +distinct development of the spotting.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp50a" id="fig135" style="max-width: 31.25em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig135.jpg" alt="Striped spotted design"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 135.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp50a" id="fig136" style="max-width: 31.25em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig136.jpg" alt="Wave zigzag"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 136.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>The next weave, <a href="#fig136">Fig. 136</a>, may be more diversified in +colouring. In the woven texture, it forms a species of +serpentine pattern filled in with small figures of plain make. +The warp and weft flushes compose similar figuring. Analysis +of its composition shows that it comprises three varieties +of crossings. First, there are the plain weave parts; second, +the solid warp-flush figuring; and lastly, the wave effect +formed by the solid floats of weft. If the thread-and-thread +system of colouring were adopted, an interesting woven effect +results. Thus, assuming the colourings to be pale blue and light +olive, the plain sections would consist of longitudinal stripes of +these colours; the blank spaces in the weave would give warp +floats of the same shades; and the solid floats of weft transverse +but very diminutive lines of olive and blue. Should one colour +of warp yarn be used—such as light fawn, and a second colour for +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_234">[Pg 234]</span> +weft, tannish brown, for instance—quite a different species of style +would be obtained. In this example, a wave figure of light fawn +would be adjacent to a similar figure of tannish brown, and the +oblong figures composed of plain weave in mixed colouring.</p> + +<p>These styles, <a href="#fig135">Figs. 135</a> and <a href="#fig136">136</a>, when coloured on the lines +indicated, are suitable for silk and mixed materials, as well as +cotton textures, for which they have been arranged.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp85" id="fig137" style="max-width: 43.75em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig137.jpg" alt="Gauze and plain"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 137.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp80" id="fig138" style="max-width: 31.25em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig138.jpg" alt="Gauze structure"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig</span>. 138.</p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp25a" id="fig139" style="max-width: 20.375em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig139.jpg" alt="Plan for gauze"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig</span>. 139.</p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp50" id="fig140" style="max-width: 31.25em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig140.jpg" alt="Healding drafts"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig</span>. 140.</p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp25a" id="fig141" style="max-width: 20.0em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig141.jpg" alt="Similar to Fig 139"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig</span>. 141.</p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>171. <i>Gauze Textures.</i>—Gauze or leno effects are different in +structure and appearance from ordinary woven fabrics. When +combined with the common methods of weaving, a variety of +useful designs may be obtained. Compared with ordinary +woven results they are what may be defined as porous or transparent +in composition, or, more strictly speaking, they consist +of compact and open spaces which regularly alternate. The +dimensions of the perforations, and the intervals at which they +occur, are determined by the weave used and the method of +healding adopted. On examining a sample of these textures, +the threads appear to be drawn together in some sections +and in others to be separated and apart. Section <i>A</i> of <a href="#fig137">Fig. 137</a> +affords some idea of the mode in which the yarns twirl round, +over, and under each other. Note, for example, the crossings of +threads I and 2 with 3 and 4. The two former rise alternately +on the right and left of the two latter. Further analysis shows +that some of the threads—namely, those lettered <i>s</i>—are not +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_235">[Pg 235]</span> +drawn out of their positions. They preserve uniform fixedness +of position, being always under the picks of weft and twined +round by the whip yarns 1 and 2, and 5 and 6, etc. If one of +these yarns is removed, the +whole structure of the +fabric is decomposed. <a href="#fig138">Fig. 138</a> +is a photo-micrograph +of a cotton warp and silk +weft gauze fabric showing +distinctly the twisting of +the double warp threads +round the soft floss weft. +In the sample of fancy +gauze, <a href="#fig137">Fig. 137</a>, two whip +threads rise on the left and +on the right of the threads +<i>s</i> simultaneously, forming a wavy texture. The picks are introduced +at such intervals as to be bound together in pairs, first by +ends 1 and 2, <i>D</i> and <i>E</i>, <i>F</i> and <i>G</i>, etc.; and, second, by ends 5 and +7, <i>E</i> and <i>F</i>, <i>G</i> and <i>D</i>, etc. +The bending of the picks is due to the +method of coupling them together. In producing such a style, +first arrange for a band or stripe, of about one inch in width, +of the gauze effect <i>A</i>, and then for a band of 1½ to 2 inches in +width of the plain, like the sections lettered <i>B</i>. The weaving plan +of this pattern is <a href="#fig139">Fig. 139</a>, and the healding draft <a href="#fig140">Fig. 140</a>. A +word or two of explanation is necessary on the latter. Shafts +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_236">[Pg 236]</span> +1 and 2 are the doupe heddles. In healding, the whip threads +are first entered into shafts 3 or 4, then into shafts 1 or 2, as +the case may be. It is necessary that these should be drawn +underneath the stationary ends. When the doupe heddles +rise, the whip ends are lifted on the right of the fixed threads, +but when shafts 3 and 4 rise they are lifted on the left. +The weave given in <a href="#fig141">Fig. 141</a> is a modification of this structure. +This weave, in the same draft, +gives the stripes of plain unaltered, +but those of leno are +more pronounced in waviness, +for four picks are in this case +grouped together at each +change of the whip threads. +Numerous variations might +also be wrought in the same +method of healding, and by the +same plan, by simply altering +the dimensions of the respective +stripes.</p> + +<figure class="figleft illowp50" id="fig142" style="max-width: 31.25em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig142.jpg" alt="Fancy gauze"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 142.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>The style given in <a href="#fig142">Fig. 142</a> +is of a different class from that +sketched in <a href="#fig137">Fig. 137</a>. For some +sixteen picks the gauze yarns interweave regularly, and then +pass round four threads, being thereby drawn together by the +picks, and at the same time made to prevent them from being +forced into contact with each other. It is thus that the porous +features of the pattern are originated. Between each series of +gauze effects there is a band of twelve threads of fine cotton, +not including the side threads which, conjointly with the whip +yarns, form the interstices at intervals. In healding for this +style, the douping threads pass under four ends in succession, +so that five threads are sleyed together in the gauze sections. +In the plain parts, however, only four threads are entered into +each reed, while a vacant split is allowed between the different +sets of these yarns. This sample, like the preceding one, and +that given in <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 3 on <a href="#plate23b"> Plate <abbr title="Twenty-three">XXIII.</abbr></a>, illustrates the diversity of +textural arrangement feasible in gauze fabrics.</p> + +<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_237">[Pg 237]</span> +172. <i>Systems of Colouring Gauzes.</i>—The methods of colouring +these patterns may be grouped under three heads, as follows:⁠—</p> + +<p>I. Gauze patterns in which colour is applied to those sections +composed of the ordinary principles of intertexture only.</p> + +<p><abbr title="Two">II.</abbr> Gauze patterns in which colour is applied to the gauze +parts only.</p> + +<p><abbr title="Three">III.</abbr> Gauze patterns coloured in both the ordinary and gauze +sections.</p> + +<p>Examples in each class may be considered. Primarily, then, +it is feasible to apply colour to these styles on such a system that +the gauze sections will be developed in one shade, while the adjoining +effects may be coloured on any system applicable to +single-make designs composed of simple weaves. Thus, taking +<a href="#fig137">Fig. 137</a> as a design which it is required to colour by this +method, then the weave of parts <i>B</i> being plain, any of the +Simple or Compound Schemes of Colouring might be used; or +these parts might be coloured on a special system to form, for +example, a shaded band of tints. If the colours used were pink +and white, the maximum quantities of pink could approach the +band of gauze effects, when the largest portion of white would +fall in the centre of the plain stripe; or the shading might proceed +from white at the edges to a pink central band. Whether +the first or the second arrangement is adopted, the stripe of +gauze should be in white, and the weft also of this shade. +Obviously the ordinary schemes of colouring are applicable to +such sections as <i>B</i> of any gauze pattern. With some slight +modification, or rather adaptation, they also relate to the leno or +gauze portions of these styles. When it is required to introduce +the fancy shades into the gauze proper, the structure of the +fabric has to be taken into consideration. <a href="#fig142">Fig. 142</a> is a sample +of gauze in which the fancy yarn constitutes the gauze effect. +By making it such, the character of the pattern is more clearly +developed. It is only by an arrangement of this kind that the +twisting of the gauze yarns can be prominently brought out. If +the ground threads had been white, and the whip yarns black, +the effect would not have been nearly so good. Hence it is +advantageous in applying colours to these textures to make the +twisting or whip threads into fancies.</p> + +<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_238">[Pg 238]</span> +Another important feature about the application of colour to +gauze effects is that different materials and thicker yarns may +be employed for the whip than for the ground ends of the fabric. +This is the case in <a href="#fig142">Fig. 142</a>, where the gauze threads are silk +and several fold in thickness. The object of this contrast of +materials and in sizes of yarns is to cause the gauze effects to +appear prominent and distinct from the other characteristics of +the pattern.</p> + +<p>The third example in the colouring of these styles is +Pattern 3 on <a href="#plate23b"> Plate <abbr title="Twenty-three">XXIII.</abbr></a> There are several textural principles +here for analysis. The gauze sections are developed in three +kinds of yarns. The variegated silk threads form the main +element of the tinting. Such yarns are only used in the finest +of these fabrics. They impart richness of tone and lustre to the +whole effect. Next there are the thick threads of cotton forming +the diamond-work in the gauze parts. Intervening these thick +yarns, and constituting the smaller interstices, the fine threads +occur. These various yarns are effectively employed—the silks +give the twisting, the thick threads the open gauze, and the fine +threads the groundwork. The other sections of the style are +composed of twill and plain. Fancy shades might be forcibly +added to the twilled part, and so the pattern converted into a +colouring of the third class of gauze styles.</p> + +<p>In addition to these striped combinations, a limited range of +checkings in gauze are obtained, while figured effects are produced +in this scheme of weaving in a considerable diversity of +tints.</p> + +<p>173. <i>Imitation or Mock Gauzes.</i>—The somewhat intricate +mounting required to produce gauze fabrics has led to numerous +ingenious attempts to obtain a gauze effect in the texture without +increasing the complication of the weaving process. One of +the most important methods of accomplishing this is shown in +<a href="#fig143">Fig. 143</a>. The small weave (Section A) in this design, marked in +⊠’s, yields an imitation of the real gauze, and so groups the threads +and picks that they result in forming a fabric full of small +perforations. It is used in combination with the plain weave +and fancy makes in the origination of various descriptions of +patterns. As a rule, the colourings are of a simple order, only +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_239">[Pg 239]</span> +a limited variety of shades being used. The stripe in <a href="#fig143">Fig. 143</a> +may be colourable in the warp as follows:⁠—</p> + +<table class="autotable"> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">20</td> +<td class="tdc">threads of</td> +<td class="tdl">tan.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">32</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">light blue.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">20</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">tan.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">24</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">light blue.</td> +</tr> +</table> + +<p class="unindent">The weft might be either light blue, tan, or a tint that would +contrast with both the colours in the warp. Assuming it to be +blue, the pattern resultant would consist of a stripe of mock +gauze in solid blue, a stripe of plain in brown and blue neatly +mingled, a stripe of hopsack in which the respective shades +would form small diaper-work, and of a second stripe of plain +weave of intermingled colouring. The novelty of these patterns +is largely proportionate to the ingenuity exercised in varying the +methods of combining the weaves and in the selection of new +types of crossings; while the special function of the colourings is +to develop the weave elements.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp80" id="fig143" style="max-width: 31.25em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig143.jpg" alt="Mock gauze"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 143.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>The check example, <a href="#fig144">Fig. 144</a>, further illustrates the method of +colouring these mock effects. <a href="#fig144a">Fig. 144<span class="allsmcap">A</span></a> is a photo-micrograph +of the fabric, showing the interlacing of the threads, and the +difference in structure of “mock” and gauze fabrics (<a href="#fig138">Fig. 138</a>). +It is produced in <a href="#fig144b">Fig. 144<span class="allsmcap">B</span></a>, and coloured:⁠—</p> + +<table class="autotable"> +<tr> +<td class="tdl">Light green</td> +<td class="tdc">12</td> +<td class="tdc">12</td> +<td class="tdc">12</td> +<td class="tdc">12</td> +<td class="tdc">24</td> +<td class="tdc">-</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdl">White</td> +<td class="tdc">48</td> +<td class="tdc">24</td> +<td class="tdc">-</td> +<td class="tdc">12</td> +<td class="tdc">-</td> +<td class="tdc">24</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdl">Medium green</td> +<td class="tdc">-</td> +<td class="tdc">-</td> +<td class="tdc">24</td> +<td class="tdc">12</td> +<td class="tdc">12</td> +<td class="tdc">-</td> +</tr> +</table> + +<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_240">[Pg 240]</span></p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp100" id="fig144" style="max-width: 31.25em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig144.jpg" alt="Mock gauze check"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 144.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp83" id="fig144a" style="max-width: 31.25em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig144a.jpg" alt="Structure mock gauze"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 144a.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>174. <i>Colours in relation to Rib or Cord Styles.</i>—The rib make +of cloth is utilized in the construction of fancy patterns. It is +one of the neatest schemes of weaving that can be used for this +purpose. It allows of considerable scope for both colouring and +designing. Though two wefts may be employed in producing +this class of design, only one of them appears on the face of the +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_241">[Pg 241]</span> +fabric when forming the rib or cord effect. As a result of +the cord may be variously coloured, +and yet quite independently of the +other sections of the style. <a href="#fig145">Fig. 145</a>, +which is the plan of the rib style given +in Pattern 4, on <a href="#plate23c"> Plate <abbr title="Twenty-three">XXIII.</abbr></a>, illustrates +the base on which such designs +are arranged. Part <i>A</i> forms the cord. +It is produced solely by the even +picks. These, in weaving, come as +close together as if the odd picks were +not part of the construction. At the +same time they float under the several +sets of threads forming the other parts +of the style. It is this arrangement +which makes it feasible to develop the +cord in any order of colours without +modifying the pattern as a whole. +Pattern 4, <a href="#plate23c"> Plate <abbr title="Twenty-three">XXIII.</abbr></a>, shows the rib +of a distinct shade.

That +grouping of shades which forms a perfect style in the common +twill may yield incongruous effects in other fancy weaves with +which it may be associated, necessitating in some designs—particularly +in those of a stripe and check order—the adoption +of various systems of colouring, according to the structure of +the crossings forming the different sections of the pattern. +Generally, the elementary schemes of colouring are the most +appropriate for weave-combinations, as they constitute the most +uniform effects. To exemplify the methods practised in colouring +this description of textile designs, some illustrations may be +considered in detail. Supposing, in the first place, a design were +composed of prunelle twills and the plain weave, and it were +required to colour it on such lines as to obtain neat textural +effects in each weave. Now, it will be clearly understood from +the analyses made of Simple Colourings that several schemes +might be employed, so far as the plain make is concerned, such +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_245">[Pg 245]</span> +as the one-and-one, the two-and-one, and the three-odd-thread +systems; but if these analyses have been carefully studied, it +will at once be evident that neither the first nor the last of these +colourings would be suitable for application to this design, +because, while producing satisfactory types in the plain sections, +they form unsuitable ones in the twills; and it is imperative in +this case to use a method of grouping shades that will give +equally clear and regular effects in the prunelle as in the plain +crossings. On this ground, therefore, both these systems must +be rejected. There is not the same objection to the two-and-one +arrangement, for it yields a good pattern in each of the makes. +In the plain weave it forms a species of neat spotting; in the +warp prunelle, lines lengthways of the fabric; and in the weft +prunelle, lines of the two shades across the fabric.</p> + +<p>176. <i>Examples in Colouring Compound Designs.</i>—Let the +following examples also be considered: <abbr title="One">I.</abbr> a design composed of +four-end twill and mat; <abbr title="Two">II.</abbr> a design with a cassimere twill +ground, small upright twill for figure, and swansdown twills for +extra spotting; <abbr title="Three">III.</abbr> a design consisting of six-shaft twill in the +ground, with warp and weft cords for figuring; <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr> a design +containing mayo, common twill, and mat; and <abbr title="Five">V.</abbr> a design with +twilled mat for ground and double-plain for figuring.</p> + +<p>In the first design mentioned, two weaves are combined in +which several schemes of colouring might be utilized, such as +the two-and-two, the four-and-four, and the four-two’s arrangements. +But assuming that it were required to adopt an order of +colouring which would cause the twilled parts of the design to +consist of minute checkings, and the hopsack parts of fine +vertical stripes, then it would become a necessity to employ the +two-and-two colouring. This order is, in some respects, one of +the best that could be employed in all-over patterns consisting +of twill and mat weaves, for it not only thus produces a distinct +effect in both makes, which in figured styles would result in the +precise development of the integral parts of the design, but also +a combination in which the sections consisting of the respective +crossings are equally pronounced.</p> + +<p>The second type of design named contains four weaves, but +the one most largely employed and which constitutes the ground +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_246">[Pg 246]</span> +of the fabric is common twill. Now, in colouring such patterns +the ground weave must be primarily considered, other makes, so +far as the application of fancy shades to the entire design is +concerned, being of secondary importance. In a combination +comprising four weaves it is not, however, usual to adopt an +order of shades calculated to produce a special effect in any of +the crossings, but rather to employ a scheme of colouring largely +composed of one shade. In other terms, it is advantageous in +designs of this class to allow the bulk of the fabric to be composed +of yarns of one tint—any fancy threads which may be +introduced being used sparingly, and frequently singly, and not +in larger groupings, as is the case in other modes of colouring. +By adopting this arrangement, the weave characteristics are +clearly emphasized, and yet the surface of the texture is neatly +embellished with fancy shades.</p> + +<p>The six-shaft twill is the main factor of the third type of style. +It is therefore a question of selecting in the first instance a plan of +colours that is adapted to its structure. As it forms the bulk of +the texture, it requires to be primarily considered. Reference +should be made to the series of simple and compound colourings +applicable to this weave, and then that method employed which, +while making a neat pattern in the twill, will not form an +unattractive effect in the cord weaves. Some of the standard +groupings of shades for this weave are quite unsuitable when +used with these cords. The three-two’s and two-three’s are +arrangements of this character. They form neat patterns in the +twill, but imperfect styles in the ribbed crossings. The one-and-one +and the three-odd-thread schemes are the most appropriate +in a combination of such weaves. They are both capable of +producing regular effects in this compound design. Thus, take +the thread-and-thread order. In the six-end twill it forms neat +spotted work; in the warp rib, transverse bands of colours; and +in the weft rib, vertical bands of colours, varying in dimensions +according to the size of the rib-weaves used.</p> + +<p>The <abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr> class of example in mayo, twill, and mat is a combination +in which several schemes of shades are feasible. The point to +be acquired when such is the case, is the employment of a method +of colouring that will yield effects in each weave, sufficiently +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_247">[Pg 247]</span> +marked in character to contrast neatly with each other, and yet +constitute a harmonious pattern. This can only be practically +worked out by comparing the patterns resulting from each +crossing in standard groupings of shades, which will lead to the +application of that order of yarns known to develop forms of +pattern in the respective makes, calculated to harmonize satisfactorily +in combination.</p> + +<figure class="figright illowp50" id="fig147" style="max-width: 31.25em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig147.jpg" alt="Figured pattern"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 147.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>When single and double weaves are combined, as in section <abbr title="Five">V.</abbr>, +the elementary schemes of colouring to be used have also to be +applied in relation to the +general effects producible. +<a href="#fig147">Fig. 147</a> is a pattern containing +such weaves, the +ground being single in +structure and the fingering +double-weave structure. A +section is given in <a href="#fig148">Fig. 148</a>. +The simplest arrangement +of colouring, one-and-one, +has been used, because +it produces the figure in +light and dark portions, +and the ground in intermingled +colouring. The +relation of the colour effect to each weave gives satisfactory +definition to the figuring in contrast with the intermingling +of the shades in the ground.</p> + +<p>177. <i>Main Points in applying Shades to Weave-Combinations.</i>—From +these examples in the methods of colouring designs +consisting of several elementary crossings, it is apparent that +there are certain principles which must be observed in introducing +fancy yarns into this class of woven patterns. First, +whatever the character of the design, the primary factor for +consideration is the structure of the weaves—the weave which +occurs in the largest quantities being the most important, and +requiring specific colour treatment. Second, when the weaves +combined are similar in construction, a simple scheme of colouring +should be adopted. Third, no order of shades should be +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_248">[Pg 248]</span> +employed which, while giving pleasing patterns in one weave, +produces indifferent results in others. Obviously, these rules +are only applicable to designs composed of elementary weaves, +and in which the variety of crossings is very limited. For +example, in designs comprising such a series of dissimilar weaves +as obtains in <a href="#fig163">Figs. 163</a> and <a href="#fig166">166</a>, it will be clear that, to acquire a +well-balanced pattern as to colouring, the several sections of the +style must be specially treated in a colour sense. To warp an +assortment of weaves of this type on one system throughout, +could only result in the construction of a most unsatisfactory +range of effects. The order of colouring must vary with the +alteration in weave. This of course is only feasible in stripe +and check designs, but is absolutely necessary in styles comprising +a considerable diversity of intricate weaves arranged on +either of these methods.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp74" id="fig148" style="max-width: 43.75em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig148.jpg" alt="Design for Fig 147"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 148.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_249">[Pg 249]</span> +178. <i>Examples in Drafted Patterns.</i>—These may be considered +as follows:⁠—</p> + +<p>I. Designs composed of weaves related to each other in +structure and occupying a similar number of threads, and in +which the several makes are used in corresponding proportions.</p> + +<p><abbr title="Two">II.</abbr> Designs of a stripe and check arrangement diversified in +weave assortment.</p> + +<p><abbr title="Three">III.</abbr> Designs composed of several crossings, but with a simple +twill, mat, or plain weave for the ground of the texture.</p> + +<p>In the <abbr title="One">I.</abbr> group a range of irregular patterns occur, consisting +mainly of three-, four-, and six-end makes. In colouring these +patterns, it is necessary to consider how the simple schemes of +colouring develop in the several weaves combined, in order that +the scheme which will give the most uniform result in all the +crossings may be applied. If three or four weaves obtain in +the same design it is occasionally advantageous to employ an +irregular grouping of shades, or one which is not intended to +give a particular type of pattern in any one of the weaves +combined.</p> + +<p>Increased colouring ingenuity and practical skill are required +in the treatment of the second group; because in the designs +included here, it is frequently necessary to adopt various orders +of colouring—one for each type of weave in the design.</p> + +<p>The third group of drafted patterns is largely developed in +cotton fabrics, dress goods, and other fancy textures. The +method of colouring these patterns is twofold, relating, first, +to the treatment of the ground crossing, and second, to the +use of a plan of shades that will yield neat effects in all the +weaves combined.</p> + +<p>Examples in each group will be fully analyzed and described.</p> + +<p>179. <i>Designs composed of Two Prunelle Twills.</i>—An extensive +assortment of styles in woollen, worsted, and cotton yarns is +obtained in these two weaves by drafting. These are produced +in trouserings, suitings, dresses, etc. When these two makes are +combined and coloured on the two-and-one method, they +give opposite effects, the warp twill forming vertical, and +the weft twill transverse lines of colour. It is this principle +which governs all the patterns obtained in designs composed of +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_250">[Pg 250]</span> +these crossings. In making styles of this kind, the first work +consists in mapping out the form of the design, and the second +work in running the twills on to the ground +and figured sections respectively. <a href="#fig152">Fig. 149</a> is +a pattern partially constructed from these +weaves. Stripes <i>A</i> are a composition of warp +and weft twills. The reduced design and +the draft for the same are furnished in <a href="#fig150h">Figs. +150</a> and <a href="#fig151">151</a>. From these it will be evident +that it is the transition from warp to weft +twill which gives the results lettered <i>A</i> and <i>B</i> +in the illustration taken from the woven fabric.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp50" id="fig152" style="max-width: 31.25em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig152.jpg" alt="Woven effects"> + <figcaption> + <p class="center"><span class="smcap">Fig. 149.</span> (upper part)   <span class="smcap">Fig. 152.</span> (lower part)</p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp100" id="fig150h" style="max-width: 43.75em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig150h.jpg" alt="Compound design"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 150.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>Many types of figuring, whether floral or +geometrical in arrangement, can be developed +on this system.</p> + +<p>There is another mode of colouring this +design besides that considered.

This is owing to the considerable series of +makes of twill and mat types producible on four shafts, enlarging +the scope for the origination of all classes of combination +styles. Various illustrations in these designs will be examined, +and the principles of colouring them explained. First, the +pattern, <a href="#fig152">Fig. 152</a>, may be referred +to. It has been obtained in the +design and draft supplied in <a href="#fig153">Figs. +153</a> and <a href="#fig154">154</a>. Strictly speaking, it +is composed of only one weave, +which, to gain variety of effect, is +twilled in two directions. It will +be observed, if any of the sections +are analyzed, that every other pick +of this weave is plain. This accounts +for the effect seen in the fabric in +<a href="#fig152">Fig. 152</a>. The arrangement of the +shades is one-and-one, so that one +weave here being the reverse of the +other, while the parts developed in +◼’s are forming one textural type, +the parts developed in ⊡’s are yielding +a second type. It is the plain +picks of the respective sections which constitute the minute +skeleton squares of grey and black; the twill picks filling up the +spaces formed by the grey with black, and those formed by the +black with grey. This pattern may be developed in various +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_252">[Pg 252]</span> +shades of fancy yarns; and the two weaves may also be blended +on such methods as to form stripe and check styles of several +descriptions.</p> + +<figure class="figright illowp60" id="fig154" style="max-width: 43.75em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig154.jpg" alt="Healding draft"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 154.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp100" id="fig155" style="max-width: 43.75em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig155.jpg" alt="Compound check design"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 155.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<figure class="figright illowp80" id="fig156" style="max-width: 43.75em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig156.jpg" alt="Healding draft"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 156.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp100" id="plate24a" style="max-width: 37.5em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/plate24a.jpg" alt="Prunelle"> + <figcaption style="color: blue;"> + <p><span class="smcap">Plate <abbr title="Twenty-four">XXIV</abbr></span><br> + <span class="allsmcap">COLOURING OF DRAFTED STYLES</span><br> + <span class="small">1.

The comparatively +large patches of one group of yarns in the warp do +not form a clear stripe in the fabric, because the system of +wefting is irregular, being such, however, as to tally with the +plan of changing the twilling of the weave on every sixth +pick. The effect of the two-and-two order of shades in the +warp in this drafted design shows the extent to which the +construction of the plan of interlacing may modify the result +of a simple order of shades.</p> + +<p>181. <i>Style composed of Prunelle and Cassimere Twills.</i>—This +is rather an irregular combination, but in the two-and-one +system of colouring, if the weaves are skilfully adjusted, it is +capable of producing a species of pattern rich in textural details. +Referring, for example, to section <i>B</i> of <a href="#fig152">Fig. 149</a>, the effect of the +cassimere twill worked into checks of sixteen threads and picks +in this grouping of shades is given. It is a neat type of pattern, +contrasting with the effects of the prunelle twills with which it +is combined. The quantity of cassimere twill must not be large +in combinations of this class, or a cloth lacking uniformity of +structure will be produced. Further, the weaves require to be +correctly fitted together, or a fabric possessing an irregular +surface will ensue. It is a suitable scheme of weaves for dress +fabrics. The arrangement is also adaptive, in small styles, to +trousering and similar fabrics.</p> + +<p>182. <i>Combinations composed of two-, Six-, Seven-, Eight-, +and Nine-Shaft Weaves.</i>—There are several varieties of patterns +obtained in designs containing six-end makes. As a rule the +twill is the principal weave. One example in which the hopsack +and a fancy crossing are combined may, however, be +described, as it is an interesting and typical specimen of the +general range of patterns obtained in this class of weaves. This +style is sketched in <a href="#fig157">Fig. 157</a>, while the design producing it is a +composition of the two makes in <a href="#fig158">Fig. 158</a>. The method of +colouring is three threads of white and six threads of black +in both warp and weft. In the mat sections the minute figures +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_255">[Pg 255]</span> +are formed, but the intermingled checking is a consequence +of the weave marked in full squares in <a href="#fig158">Fig. 158</a>. These two +crossings are combinable in figured arrangements suitable for +costumes and dressing-gowns. In soft colours, brightened at +intervals by a few fancy threads, this compound of weaves and +scheme of colouring are capable of yielding a series of fancy +fabrics. By changing the mat to twill, quite a distinct species of +pattern is obtained. Both weaves now yield check effects, but +the type of effect resulting from the twill is uniform and regular +in appearance. Some neat figured and check designs are also +obtained in six-shaft makes by employing the twill for the +ground of the texture, and small weaves which may be readily +combined with it, and colouring on the +three-one’s, two-three’s, and three-two’s +systems.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp80" id="fig157" style="max-width: 31.25em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig157.jpg" alt="Six-and-three"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 157.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<figure class="figright illowp40" id="fig158" style="max-width: 25.0em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig158.jpg" alt="Stripe design"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 158.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>The variety of styles workable in +seven-shaft crossings is somewhat +limited.

Now as the weaves forming the designs are on four +shafts, the fancy yarns fall on different threads of the respective +makes in different parts of the figuring. In this way a blended +effect is acquired. The bulk of the first warp being white, and +the weft of a medium shade, the weave details are clearly seen. +The three makes, comprising the design (<a href="#fig160">Fig. 160</a>), are all traceable. +The small spaces of white are due to the twill marked in +crosses; the spaces of slate to the twill marked in full squares; +and the spaces of slate and white, equally mixed, to the cassimere +twill which forms the ground of the design.

It forms a type of granite +mixture. The colours being arranged practically +on the one-and-one system throughout +the fabric, the effects of the various crossings +are partially subdued. Cheviot yarns and +medium counts of worsteds are adapted for +this type of intermingled pattern in fancy +costume fabrics.</p> + +<p>184. <i>Fancy Stripe Combinations.</i>—Designs +of this class for worsted trouserings, cotton +textures, and tweed mantlings, may be intricate +in both weave and colour composition. +Indeed, it follows as a natural sequence that +if a striped design is well diversified in weave +arrangement, it will be correspondingly complex +in colouring. Not only in a weave, but +in a textural and colour relation, is there +intricacy of technical contrivance in these +fabrics. First, a uniform texture is indispensable; +second, this quality must be obtained +in conjunction with novel weave +effects; and, third, the arrangement of colouring +must be harmonious in shading and in +accordance with the structure of the weaves +combined.</p> + +<p>185. <i>Irregular Woollen Weave Combinations.</i>—A compound +of crossings, forming a style of design specially suitable for +woollen yarns, is supplied in <a href="#fig161">Fig. 161</a>. Whether produced in +fine or medium yarns for dress or cloaking fabrics, it forms an +effective pattern. It is workable on fourteen healds, the plan +of drafting being as follows: Threads 1 to 14 straight drawn, +then shafts 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 7, 8, 14, 13, 12, 11, 10, and 9. +Should this method of drafting be adopted, Parts <i>A</i> and <i>B</i> +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_259">[Pg 259]</span> +would constitute the reduced plan. Though the design contains +fourteen distinct threads, it is, nevertheless, merely +a modification of the first seven ends. These form a species +of diagonal weave suitable for worsted coatings.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp50" id="fig161" style="max-width: 25.0em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig161.jpg" alt="Stripe design"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig</span>. 161.</p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>The arrangement of this +pattern may he divided into +four sections. Parts <i>C</i> and <i>D</i> +have the diagonal moving to +the right, and parts <i>A</i> and <i>B</i> +to the left. The manner in +which each diagonal commences +and terminates is the +chief characteristic of the +pattern, and is illustrative +of a method of combining +this type of weave that may +be followed out with satisfactory +results. For dress +materials the following weaving particulars are appropriate:⁠—</p> + +<table class="autotable"> +<tr> +<td class="tdc"><i>Warp.</i><br></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdl">1 thread of fine black and white twist.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdl">5 threads of medium grey.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdl">1 thread of fine black and white twist.<br></td> +</tr> +</table> + +<p class="center"><i>Weft.</i><br> +All dark grey. +</p> + +<p>Little variety of colouring is needed; a light shade of warp +and a medium shade of weft are sufficient to give due precision +and proper development to the various features of this design.</p> + +<figure class="figleft illowp60" id="fig162" style="max-width: 31.25em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig162.jpg" alt="Stripe design"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 162.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>186. <i>Cotton Stripes.</i>—These have frequently a plain ground, and +belong to the third group of drafted designs. The figuring is +developed in warp and weft flushes neatly grouped in diamonds, +twills, and fancy mats. An example of these designs is <a href="#fig162">Fig. 162</a>—a +compound weavable on twelve shafts. It consists of bands +of plain weave, warp rib, and wave effect. Section <i>A</i> consists +of objects of the same shape and dimensions developed in +both warp and weft floats. Thus, while the figure marked in +solid squares would, in the fabric, be composed of weft flushes, +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_260">[Pg 260]</span> +the part marked in crosses would consist of floats of warp; +hence, providing the warp is light in shade, and the weft of +an intermediate colour, these figures would be of distinct +hues.

This order of +colours, but in different shades, such as pink and white, slate +and white, and salmon and white, also develops well. In these +latter shades, bright and pale pinks, and salmon and a deep +and pale slate, are requisite to obtain the proper gradation of +tinting.</p> + +<p>187. <i>Colouring of Designs containing several Weaves of +Varied Structures.</i>—Three typical illustrations in the methods +of introducing fancy shades into this sort of compound designs +may be considered.

Thus, in the first design, <a href="#fig163">Fig. 163</a>, which is composed +of three weaves, there are four distinct stripes, consisting of +fancy mat weave, corkscrew, and rib respectively.

In all cases, it is sought +to distribute or arrange, on a tinted groundwork, a series of +minute spots, which may be composed of either the same or of +distinct shades from those used in the construction of the general +surface of the fabric. When this species of pattern is developed +in woollens and worsteds, the spotting consists of mere specks +of colouring, resulting from the employment of a special scheme +of interlacing the warp and weft yarns. Cotton and linen styles +require bolder and clearer spots than woollens, and, as a rule, are +fuller of effects. There are various points to be considered in +the construction of these patterns, relating to the method of development, +the plan of grouping, and the dimensions of the spots.</p> + +<p>Respecting the method of development, this is subjective to +the facilities at command. Thus, if the spotting can only be +worked out in those yarns that constitute the ground of the +texture, then it is more a matter of inventing a suitable scheme +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_268">[Pg 268]</span> +of weave-design than of any specific process of colouring. But +should a special series of warp threads be used for the spotting, +then it becomes necessary to utilize both a particular type of +weave and order of colours. Generally considered, spotted +patterns are of four varieties, as follows:⁠—</p> + +<p><abbr title="One">I.</abbr> Spots developed by the ordinary warp and weft of the fabric.</p> + +<p><abbr title="Two">II.</abbr> Spots obtained by using an extra series of warp yarns.</p> + +<p><abbr title="Three">III.</abbr> Spots obtained by using an extra series of weft yarns.</p> + +<p><abbr title="four">IV.</abbr> Spots obtained by using both an extra series of warp and +weft yarns.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp90" id="fig168" style="max-width: 31.25em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig168.jpg" alt="Angled twill"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 168.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>The first is the simplest class of spots. It is due to special +schemes of floating the warp, weft, or both these sets of yarns, +at regular intervals in constructing the fabric; that is to say, +if the construction of the texture were of the mat order, here +and there the mat effect would be substituted by groups of warp +and weft flushes, lending to the surface of the fabric a spotted +aspect. This type of spotted weaving is largely practised in +designing for various descriptions of fancy woollens, worsteds, +and cottons. In the second, third, and fourth classes of these +patterns extra groups of shades, entirely independent of those +forming the ground of the texture, are employed. They allow +of the production of more intricate effects than those developable +by the first system, but are more difficult to manipulate in both +weave and colour combinations. Ornamental styles coloured in +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_269">[Pg 269]</span> +the warp for vestings, dresses, robes, and mantlings, also in the +weft, and in both warp and weft, are but developments of these +forms of weaving and shade-arrangements. Subsequent analyses +of these textiles will demonstrate the affinity of the principles of +their construction with those of the spotted designs now under +consideration.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp40" id="fig169" style="max-width: 25.0em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig169.jpg" alt="Effect of Fig 168"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 169.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp80" id="fig170" style="max-width: 31.25em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig170.jpg" alt="Spotted warp twill"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 170.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>190. <i>Spots due to Specific Systems of Weaving.</i>—As these are +purely a product of the plan of building +the fabric, they may be designated Weave-Spots. +Thus the design given in <a href="#fig168">Fig. 168</a> +would yield a spotted effect, however +simple the system of colouring might +be. The pattern resulting, <a href="#fig169">Fig. 169</a>, is an +example. The shades in this texture are +slate and white—the latter being the +warp—and the effects consist of small +white spots on a twilled surface. Of +course in silk and worsted dress fabrics +the spots are of various forms, and are +arranged on geometrical bases; but in +woollens small effects, as in the illustration, are the most appropriate. +Still, the principles of this type of designing, whatever +the form of the spot and the scheme of distribution, are the +same, relating primarily +to a diversification +of the plan of +weaving. In <a href="#fig168">Fig. 168</a> +the twill is interrupted +at certain +periods, to allow of +the formation of a +spot composed of floats of warp yarn of some three threads in +width and five picks in length. In Section <i>A</i> such spots lean +to the right, and in Section <i>B</i> to the left, or in both parts of the +style they run with the twill. It should be observed that, +when modifying a common weave to develop spotted results, +care must be exercised not to injure the general build of the +fabric, for this is a factor that must always remain intact. As +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_270">[Pg 270]</span> +to the size of the spot, it varies according to the fineness of the +fabric and the nature of the pattern to which it is applied.</p> + +<figure class="figleft illowp38" id="fig171" style="max-width: 18.75em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig171.jpg" alt="Spotted warp twill"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 171.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>191. <i>Swansdown Twill Spotted.</i>—The spots in this instance +are due to the weft yarn. They may consist +of small diamonds, minute figures, and +other forms, and be arranged in diagonals, +twills, or on such a system as to constitute +an irregular effect. For example, in <a href="#fig170">Fig. 170</a> +they run in oblique lines, and in +<a href="#fig171">Fig. 171</a> they compose a vertical diagonal. +As a rule, the colouring of these styles +is of a simple order, merely comprising +the employment of neatly-contrasting +shades. If any additional shade-effects, +besides those yielded by the spots of weft +yarn, are required, fancy yarns are introduced +into the warp to a limited extent. +Take an illustration in colouring <a href="#fig170">Fig. 170</a>, +in which the yarns are combined to form a striped pattern for +cotton dresses:⁠—</p> + +<table> +<tr> +<td class="tdc" colspan="4"><i>Warp.</i></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">26</td> +<td class="tdc pad6">threads</td> +<td class="tdc pad6">of</td> +<td class="tdl">medium blue.<br></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">2</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">slate.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">2</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">medium blue.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">2</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">white.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">2</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">medium blue.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">2</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">slate.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdc pad4" colspan="4"><i>Weft.</i><br></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdl" colspan="4">All bright medium brown</td> +</tr> +</table> + +<p>This arrangement gives a pattern consisting of a bold band of +medium blue, succeeded by fine lines of slate and white ornamented +with spots of bright brown on a warp-twill ground. +Now consider <a href="#fig171">Fig. 171</a> in relation to worsted dress goods. +Taking the warp to be a light fawn shade and the weft brown, +again a texture results with a twilled surface, but in this instance +the ground parts are fawn spotted with brown. It will be +apparent from these illustrations that in designs of this class +but a small variety of colouring is needed, and that the fancy +shades are usually worked into the warp, while the weft, in +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_271">[Pg 271]</span> +order to afford uniform emphasis to the spotting, is of one shade +throughout the texture.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp35a" id="fig172" style="max-width: 18.75em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig172.jpg" alt="Spotted effect"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 172.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp37a" id="fig173" style="max-width: 18.75em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig173.jpg" alt="Spotted effect"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 173.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp35a" id="fig174" style="max-width: 18.75em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig174.jpg" alt="Spotted effect"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 174.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>192. <i>Spots composed of</i> [1\3] <i>and</i> [3\1] <i>Twills.</i>—The main +elements of these styles are the irregular character of the spotting, +the uniformity of the weft floats—these never covering more than +three threads in succession—and the clearness of the patterns +when shades forming a strong contrast are used for warp and +weft. They form an extensive series of weave combinations, and +examples are given in Figs. <a href="#fig172">172</a>, <a href="#fig173">173</a>, + <a href="#fig174">174</a>, <a href="#fig175">175</a>, and <a href="#fig176">176</a>. Whatever +the weft yarn employed in the manufacture of these +textiles, it constitutes, as in the preceding styles, the spotting, +while the warp yarns tint the ground of the fabric. Though +in these designs the spots generally appear to be irregularly +arranged, still, on closer examination, it will be obvious that in +the planning of each weave well-defined principles of textural +composition are observed. Thus, in <a href="#fig172">Fig. 172</a> each thread is +depressed six times in each repeat of the design; in <a href="#fig173">Fig. 173</a> +sixteen times; and in <a href="#fig174">Figs. 174</a> and <a href="#fig175">175</a> eight times. Here, +therefore, is one element of uniformity of structure denoting the +designing principles in these weaves. This uniformity of interlacing +extends to the picks also, hence the designs are essentially +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_272">[Pg 272]</span> +regular in construction, and, with the exception of <a href="#fig172">Fig. 172</a>, yield +patterns in which the flushes of warp and weft are equally +balanced. It is needless to observe that this is an all-important +characteristic in the +build of spotted combinations.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp50" id="fig175" style="max-width: 31.25em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig175.jpg" alt="Stripe spotted design"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 175.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp75" id="fig176" style="max-width: 31.25em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig176.jpg" alt="grouping spots"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 176.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>Respecting the +schemes of colouring +practised here, they are +so various that only a +few of them may be +indicated. First, suppose +<a href="#fig172">Fig. 172</a> were woven in a brown and white twist warp, and +crossed with black, slate, or blue weft. The pattern resulting +from this arrangement would consist of a brown and white twist +ground spotted with minute spots of different shapes of black, +slate, or blue, according to the weft yarn used. <a href="#fig173">Fig. 173</a> produces +a more regular +cast of pattern than the +preceding style. Here +an appropriate method +of colouring in the warp +is two-and-two, while +the weft again should +be one solid shade. For +example, let the warp +be 2 threads of slate and +2 threads of medium +blue and white twist, +and the weft brown, +then the pattern would +consist of some diversity +of tinting. It is only furnished as an illustration in shade-arrangement, +and ought, in practice, to be considerably varied; +a fabric would result possessing a brown, slate, and medium +blue and white twist ground, spotted with small patches of +twist threads and of brown.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp91" id="plate26a" style="max-width: 25.0em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/plate26a.jpg" alt="Donegal Tweed"> + <figcaption style="color: blue;"> + <p>Plate <abbr title="Twenty-six">XXVI</abbr><br> + <span class="allsmcap">FANCY YARN COLOURINGS</span><br> + <span class="smaller">1.

All +the shades entering into the texture +now assist in the development +of the spotted effects—an +element of the designs which +increases the diversity of +colouring and pattern formation feasible. Three very distinct +specimens of this scheme of spotting are <a href="#fig178">Figs. 178</a>, + <a href="#fig179">179</a>, and +<a href="#fig180">180</a>. Considering <a href="#fig178">Fig. 178</a> + first, it has a plain ground, the +spots being arranged on an eight-shaft sateen base. Such a +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_275">[Pg 275]</span> +design may be coloured on two methods—the warp and weft +may be of distinct or of the same shades. Supposing, therefore, +that in the first place the warp is of one colour only, such as +brown mixture and crossed with blue mixture, then the mingled +effects due to the plain ground would be enhanced by the specks +of these colours resulting from the spots in the weave marked +in full squares. By adopting, in the second instance, the thread-and-thread +system of colouring in both warp and weft, a still +more diversified style would ensue. In such a case the ground +of the fabric consists of vertical lines with slightly indistinct +spots at regular intervals. For fabrics in which clear effects are +requisite this latter system of colouring is the most appropriate, +but in goods where mingled colouring is required the former +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_276">[Pg 276]</span> +scheme of colouring is preferable. <a href="#fig179">Fig. 179</a> shows how this +principle of spotting is applied to designs of a more figured +character. Section <i>A</i> may be used separately, forming a series +of broken twills composed of spots of warp and weft floats +alternately. The extended design gives a more varied style of +pattern, but the principle is the same. Several schemes of +colouring might be practised. First, the Simple orders of shades, +such as one-and-one, and two-and-two, woven as warp in the +same or different colours, or crossed in the weft: that is to say, +one-and-one warping woven with two-and-two wefting, and +<i>vice versâ</i>. Another method is to colour in stripe arrangement +in the warp, and to use one shade of weft: the weft spots then +form a distinct feature of the pattern. <a href="#fig180">Fig. 180</a> is a compound of +cassimere twill and of a spotted +weave. Part <i>A</i> is a spotted +twill, the spotting comprising +both warp and weft flushes, +thus securing a proper balance +of colouring when fancy yarns +are used. The design is capable +of modification, both in weave +and colouring.

If the weaves are of +the four-shaft class they are generally those combined in <a href="#fig181">Fig. 181</a>. +This pattern (see <a href="#fig182">Fig. 182</a>) is a spotted check. The fine +warp and weft lines running transversely and longitudinally +in the fabrics are of similar dimensions. Thus the effects +formed by threads <i>A</i> exactly correspond to those formed by +picks <i>A</i>′. In both instances there is one small weft and warp +line, and one large weft and warp line.

Firstly, the spotting threads and picks are alone +fancy yarns, the intervening threads and picks being composed +of solid colours, thus:⁠—</p> + +<table> +<tr> +<td class="tdc pad4" colspan="3"><i>Warp.</i></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">10</td> +<td class="tdc pad6">threads of</td> +<td class="tdl">medium grey.<br></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">1</td> +<td class="tdc">thread of</td> +<td class="tdl">black and green twist.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">1</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">black and orange twist.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdc pad4" colspan="3"><i>Weft.</i></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">10</td> +<td class="tdc">picks of</td> +<td class="tdl">dark grey.<br></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">1</td> +<td class="tdc">pick of</td> +<td class="tdl">black and blue twist.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">1</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">black and orange twist.</td> +</tr> +</table> + +<p>Secondly, the ground or common twill parts may consist of +small checkings, and the spotting threads of bright shades. +This scheme is worked out in fancy suitings and dress fabrics. +A third arrangement comprises the use of cotton, silk, and +worsted yarns, warping and wefting ten dark and two light, +as in <a href="#fig182">Fig. 182</a>. This method is varied by using three or more +colours for the spotting threads and picks, thus:⁠—</p> + + +<table> +<tr> +<td class="tdc pad4" colspan="3"><i>Warp.</i></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">10</td> +<td class="tdc pad6">threads of</td> +<td class="tdl">white.<br></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">2</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">light blue.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">10</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">white.<br></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">2</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">light brown.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">10</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">white.<br></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">2</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">green.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdc pad4" colspan="3"><i>Weft.</i></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdc" colspan="3">Same as warp.</td> +</tr> +</table> + +<p>195. <i>Spots developed by Single Extra Warp Threads.</i>—Patterns +of this character are applicable to woollen, worsted, and +cotton and silk textures. Differing in construction from the +preceding examples, the system provides for the interlacings of a +special series of fancy warp yarns in developing the spotted +effects. These threads yield a pattern supplementary to that +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_280">[Pg 280]</span> +resulting from the colourings forming the ground of the fabric, +and from the twilled or other weaves used in the structure of the +cloth. Any plan of weave or system of colouring may be adopted +in producing the general foundation of the pattern; for the +spotting is obtained by a distinct set of threads, and is controlled +by a section of the weaving plan entirely independent of the +design giving the cloth proper. As all spots got on this +principle are due to the use of a +regular yarn, and not to fancy +twists of a knop, cloud, or spangle +class, the fabric resultant is quite +uniform in texture and smooth on +the surface. This is a feature the +weave method of spotting possesses +over the yarn system. Threads of +a knop type, though giving the +requisite spot, yield a fabric more +or less rough in appearance and +handle, while the patterns, as +regards the spotting, have no +definite form or arrangement. On +the other hand, in the weave +system, the spots may be located +or distributed over the face of the +fabric according to the effect required. +If desirable, the spotting +may be arranged to form check, +diamond, small figure, and other +designs. Further, there is another difference between these two +systems of introducing spots of bright colouring into woven +pattern. When fancy twist yarns are used for spotting, the +whole design, both ground and weave effects, results from the +interlacing of these threads; whereas, in the weave arrangement, +the spotting yarns do not constitute the groundwork of the +texture, but merely add freshness to the pattern.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp44a" id="fig183" style="max-width: 25.0em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig183.jpg" alt="Single-thread"> + <figcaption> + <p>⌻ = Spotting threads depressed.<br>⊡ = Weft.<br> + ◼ = Spotting threads on face of fabric.<br>◻ = Warp.<br> + <span class="smcap">Fig. 183.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p><a href="#fig183">Fig. 183</a> is an illustration in this method of spotting. It will +be observed that there are eight threads of twill to one thread of +spotting. According to the patterns of warp which are given +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_281">[Pg 281]</span> +below, the spotting yarns are much brighter in colour than those +forming the ground of the fabric. This is the general rule. The +spots appear on the face of the pattern in those positions in the +design where they flush over three picks in succession, but run +on the back of the texture in all other instances. The spotting +ends are so controlled that the small specks of bright colouring +they give are arranged on the four-shaft broken swansdown base, +and hence are not only regularly distributed, but are also at equal +distances from each other in the woven cloth. The groundwork +of the pattern is simple in colouring, and forms a species of +shaded check.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp85" id="plate27a" style="max-width: 25.0em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/plate27a.jpg" alt="Twill Weave"> + <figcaption style="color: blue;"> + <p>Plate <abbr title="Twenty-seven">XXVII</abbr><br> + <span class="allsmcap">COLOURING WITH CURL AND KNOP YARNS</span><br> + <span class="smaller">1.

The latter system is the one most practised, +because it gives the best results and the most uniform style. +<a href="#fig184">Fig. 184</a> is an illustration of the first method. It is a weave +with a corkscrew-twill ground, the fifth pick of which has been +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_282">[Pg 282]</span> +changed to the pick marked in squares, which brings the fancy +silk pick on to the face. The warp is usually a solid or mixture +shade, and the weft the same or a contrasting shade, with the +spotting pick in bright colour.</p> + +<p>197. <i>Mat Weaves Spotted.</i>—One of the most useful methods of +spotting with weft is given in <a href="#fig185">Fig. 185</a>. The spotting picks, <i>A</i>, +appear on the face of the fabric where the full squares are seen. +They have been arranged on the eight-shaft sateen base, which +ensures an even and regular distribution of the spots.

If a fancy effect is required, special spots can be +made to form diamond, check, and small figured patterns. The +spots are somewhat more distinct than in the previous design, +but in this example they have only been arranged to give a +very minute dot in the fabric. Should a heavier texture be +wanted than it is possible to produce by this single weave, a +warp back, as in <a href="#fig187">Fig. 187</a>, may be added. In a single-make +fabric it may be woven in one shade of warp and ground weft, +with the spotting pick in bright colour.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp50" id="fig185" style="max-width: 25.0em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig185.jpg" alt="Single-pick weft"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 185.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp35b" id="fig186" style="max-width: 25.0em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig186.jpg" alt="Modification Fig 184"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 186.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp50" id="fig187" style="max-width: 31.25em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig187.jpg" alt="Warp-backed design"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 187.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>199. <i>Spotted Diagonals.</i>—Fancy diagonals, as well as other +types of fancy weaves, are frequently spotted with silk yarns, +particularly in the construction of vesting patterns. An example +in this class of designing is furnished in <a href="#fig188">Fig. 188</a>, which consists +of a twenty-four shaft diagonal composed of corkscrew and +ordinary twilled effects.</p> + +<p>Here special picks have been inserted for developing the spot. +Thus the picks <i>A</i>, marked in ⊠’s, produce the spotting. They form +a broken twill pattern, two of the spots leaning to the left and +two to the right. The weave comprises three distinct effects: +first, a solid, compact warp twill; second, a similar twill of weft-flush; +and, third, a furrow of corkscrew twill. The warp +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_284">[Pg 284]</span> +colouring might be solid, but the weft should consist of one pick +silk and of six picks of worsted.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp50" id="fig188" style="max-width: 25.0em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig188.jpg" alt="Diagonal"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 188.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>200. <i>Warp and Weft Spots compared.</i>—Probably the method +of developing spots by an extra series of warp threads is better +adapted to woollens and cottons than to worsteds. In the last +style of fabrics silk is the common material used for spotting +purposes. Being fine and lustrous, it imparts richness of +character to the woven fabric. For several reasons it is preferable +to use extra picks in spotting worsteds. Thus the weft +principle of spotting allows of considerable latitude for figured +work and variety of pattern, +and does not largely increase +the cost of weaving, nor add +materially to the complication +of design construction. In +spotting worsteds by the +warp system with silk, an +extra warp or chain beam is +required, and an additional +set of healds—which multiply +the difficulties of the weaving +process. Even when these increased +facilities are requisitioned, +the amount of figuring +feasible is limited; whereas, by the weft method, the spot can be +of any form or dimensions. On the other hand, the warp scheme +is specially suitable for woollen effects of a tweed order in which +colouring is the main element, and where the extra yarns form +mere dots of colour on the surface of the texture. Each principle +has therefore its specific place in textile designing.</p> + +<p>201. <i>Spotting in both Warp and Weft.</i>—This principle of +design combines the two preceding methods of spotting—making +it feasible to spot the surface of the fabric both in the warp and +weft. It follows that patterns fuller of effect and richer in +spotting are producible by this system. There is, however, one +disadvantage in the employment of this method of spotting—it +adds to the intricacy of the weaving operation, for special +threads and picks are necessary in the production of fabrics.</p> + +<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_285">[Pg 285]</span></p> +<figure class="figright illowp50" id="fig189" style="max-width: 25.0em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig189.jpg" alt="Single-thread"> + <figcaption> + <p>▧ Weft Spots ◼ Warp Spots<br> + <span class="smcap"><a href="#fig189">Fig. 189</a>.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>The spotted twill, <a href="#fig189">Fig. 189</a>, illustrates the plan of arrangement. +The twill or ground weave is, in designs of this class, +continuous, and forms, independently of the spotting threads +and picks, a perfect texture. Further, the spotting is so +arranged that it does not interrupt the twilled effect. It is +an additional and separate element of the design. When constructing +such styles, the order and size of the spots are the two +main points for consideration. The methods of grouping the +spots are similar in both warp and weft; thus, if there are four +threads of ground weave to one thread of spotting in the warp, +there will be the same +proportion of ground and +spotting picks in the +weft. Adherence to this +rule results in the manufacture +of a uniform +pattern. Having decided +upon the scheme +of grouping, say five +threads of ground to +one thread of spotting, +as in <a href="#fig189">Fig. 189</a>, proceed +by marking out the +spotting threads and +picks on point paper in +colour, next add the +ground weave, and, lastly, determine the dimensions and order +of the spots. As to the ground, it may consist of any well-planned +assortment of twills, mats, or fancy weaves. With +regard to the size of the spots, this varies according to the class +of the texture being manufactured. For tweed fabrics, small +effects are the neatest, but in some types of mantlings, in which +the spotting yarn is mohair or lustre worsted, large, clear, and +bold spots yield the best patterns. Worsteds, linens, and cottons, +with silk or mercerized cotton yarns for spotting, are, as a rule, +designed with minute, precise, and smart effects.

The second +scheme is for textures consisting of one solid shade in the +ground; the surface of the fabric in this instance is dark blue +mixture, having the check spotting produced by the weave—<a href="#fig189">Fig. +189</a>—in fancy worsted and silk twists. The third arrangement is +a simple four-and-four check composed of black and blue, the +spots falling in different parts of the checks. Should it be +necessary to have the spotting always in the centre of the four +threads, the construction of the design would have to be modified. +Instead of the arrangement being five threads of ground to one +thread of spotting, it would require to be four threads of ground +to one thread of spotting.</p> + +<p>202. <i>Advantages of the Warp and Weft Method of Spotting.</i>—In +all fabrics in which spotting is the chief characteristic, the +warp and weft principle of design construction is the most +effective. Mantlings of a matelasse order, worsted dress textures, +fancy cottons for vestings and quiltings, are all spotted by this +method. Allowing, as it does, for the employment of a double +series of spotting yarns, it yields patterns characterized by much +diversity of tinting and intermingled effects. By causing the +two sets of spotting threads to interlace with each other, and +arranging for them to be of different colours, patterns full of +textural details are produced. Still, for ordinary suiting fabrics +either the warp or weft method is generally practised, because +in these textiles the spotting yarns are only intended to dot the +surface of the fabric with minute specks of bright colouring, and +not to form decided patterns, as in mantling and dress styles.</p> + +<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_288">[Pg 288]</span> +203. <i>Yarns used for Spotting.</i>—The yarns used for spotting +purposes are of various types. All classes of fancy threads, +including knop yarns produced in carding, but single in construction, +and twists or folded yarns of various types are used.</p> + +<p>The first type is that employed in the production of Donegal +tweeds, where the yarns are single, but coloured knops or specks +are formed at intervals on the thread. These are due to +distributing on the material, during carding, neps of fibrous +material of different colours, which enter into the condensed +sliver and become part of the spun thread. By this method the +position of the colour on the thread is not mechanically controlled, +but the selection of the nebs of fibres used for spotting determines +the harmony of colour result in the woven fabric. There must +first be a suitable blend of ground colour obtained in the carding +of the material, and this having been fixed, the strength and +blend of colour for nepping purposes is arranged. No Donegal +pattern would be satisfactory in colour quality—which is the +chief design characteristic such fabrics possess—unless the +nepping colours gave strength and character of contrast to the +ground colouring, as seen in <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 1, <a href="#plate26a">Plate <abbr title="Twenty-six">XXVI.</abbr></a></p> + +<p>Some of the fancy and folded threads used for similar purposes +as knop carded yarns, are those illustrated in <a href="#plate25a">Plate <abbr title="Twenty-five">XXV.</abbr></a>, comprising +3-ply, cloud, knop produced in twisting, curl, and gimp +yarns. Yarns <i>A</i>, <i>B</i>, and <i>C</i> are ordinary threefold twists, being +composed thus: <i>A</i>, black and scarlet worsteds, and salmon silk; +<i>B</i>, black and green worsteds, and salmon silk; <i>C</i>, black, russet, +and orange. For spotted worsteds, there are few yarns so useful +as this class of worsted and silk twists. Samples <i>D</i>, <i>E</i>, <i>F</i>, <i>G</i>, +and <i>H</i> are cloud threads. They are chiefly used in fancy tweeds. +As a rule, they are rich in colouring. Threads <i>D</i>, <i>E</i>, <i>G</i>, and <i>H</i> +are analogous in construction, for they are all composed of four +colours and have one thread, which may be termed the central +or principal yarn, all other threads twisting or twining round it. +The composition of these respective twists is as follows:⁠—</p> + +<p><i>D.</i> Black for the central thread or shade, and crimson, green, +and blue for the intermittent colours.</p> + +<p><i>E.</i> Grey for the central thread or shade, and scarlet, black, +and tan for the intermittent colours.</p> + +<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_289">[Pg 289]</span> +<i>G.</i> Dark olive for the central thread or shade, and blue, yellow, +and light olive for the intermittent colours.</p> + +<p><i>F.</i> Light drab for the central thread or shade, and black, +scarlet, and tan for the intermittent colours.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp57" id="plate28" style="max-width: 33.8125em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/plate28.jpg" alt="Costume Colouring"> + <figcaption style="color: blue;"> + <p>Plate <abbr title="Twenty-eight">XXVIII</abbr><br> + <span class="allsmcap">COSTUME COLOURING IN FANCY YARNS</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>Obviously, the result of using such yarns is to spot the surface +of the texture with the various tints entering into their composition.</p> + +<p>Threads <i>F</i>, being of several thicknesses, differ in construction +from threads <i>D</i>, <i>E</i>, <i>G</i>, and <i>H</i>. Still, this type of thread gives +effects in the fabric somewhat resembling those resulting from +the yarns with which it is grouped, and is also designated a +“cloud” or “flock.” It is, however, less complex in colouring, +and forms an elongated spot in the texture.</p> + +<p>The curled yarns are illustrated in types <i>I</i>, <i>J</i>, and <i>K</i>. Three +examples are given—slate, crimson, and fawn. The curls or +loops are of different sizes. Such threads are applied to both +woollen and worsted fabrics, but mainly to tweeds and fancy +costumes. They give to the pattern a richly-tinted aspect. Some +classes of trimmings may be made entirely of these threads, but +their relation to spotted fabrics is here alone considered.</p> + +<p>Gimp and knop twists are also employed largely in +designs of a spot class. Five illustrations of these are given in +samples <i>L</i>, <i>M</i>, <i>N</i>, <i>O</i>, and <i>P</i> on <a href="#plate25d">Plate <abbr title="Twenty-five">XXV</abbr></a>. These threads are +generally only applied to the more fancy designs. Yarn <i>L</i> is a +composition of three threads—black, blue, and tan. The black +and blue form a two-ply twist to which the tan is added in the +twisting operation. Small knops, causing the yarn to be somewhat +irregular in thickness, are formed at intervals by the tan +thread. Compound <i>M</i> is more irregular in colouring and construction. +Loose in twine, and of various thickness, it gives a +novel type of spot, but on account of the lack of adhesiveness in +its composition it is a difficult thread to manipulate in weaving, +and hence is but sparingly employed. Yarn <i>N</i> is a real gimp. +Two black threads, well tensioned in twisting, have been combined +with yellow and crimson threads of slack twist, and running +loosely. Thread <i>O</i> is similarly constructed to <i>N</i>, only the +gimp is not so prominent, owing to the several colours being +more evenly tensioned during twisting. Compound P is a +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_290">[Pg 290]</span> +combination of gimp and knop. Thus knops or buttons of tan +colour—see <i>a</i>—are formed at intervals on the thread. Yarns <i>N</i>, +<i>O</i>, and <i>P</i> are suitable twists for spotted goods of various +descriptions.</p> + +<p>204. <i>Spotted Effects in Ordinary Weaves.</i>—The several classes +of spotted patterns analyzed have all resulted from the employment +of special builds of weaves. There are, however, some +important species of these effects obtained in designs constructed +on the ordinary principles of intertexture, which are extensively +developed in both plain and ornamental fabrics. Allusion will +now be made to several types of these patterns. It may be +observed that in producing the spotting in these styles the fancy +twists described in the preceding paragraph are utilized. +Pattern <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 1 on <a href="#plate27a">Plate <abbr title="Twenty-seven">XXVII.</abbr></a> is a specimen of fancy tweed +spotted by this method. The cloth is woven from a twelve-end +twill, the weft being black, and the order of warping as +appended:⁠—</p> + +<ul> + <li>2 threads of dark blue.</li> + <li>1 thread of black and tan curl.</li> + <li>2 threads of dark brown.</li> + <li>1 thread of black, brown, and white small curl.</li> + <li>2 threads of dark grey.</li> + <li>1 thread of black and blue curl.</li> +</ul> + +<p>It is scarcely necessary to observe that the curled yarns are +the main elements of this colouring, spotting the fabric with +small loops of tan, blue, and white. Knop, cloud, and gimp +threads are similarly introduced into fancy fabrics. The effect +of the knop twist is seen in the next illustration—Pattern <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 2, +<a href="#plate27b">Plate <abbr title="Twenty-seven">XXVII</abbr></a>. The minute figuring is due to combining two +broken crow weaves. It is a style of design for union mantlings, +and is capable of being varied to an unlimited extent in both +colouring and ornament. The warp is entirely composed of +brown and white knop cotton twist. The dots of white noticed +in the texture are a product of the warp yarns, and not of any +peculiarity in the structure of the weave or design. Such an +irregularly spotted combination as this sample is only producible +by yarns of the knop and cloud kind.</p> + +<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_291">[Pg 291]</span> +A third example, full of colour elements, <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 1, + <a href="#plate28">Plate <abbr title="Twenty-eight">XXVIII.</abbr></a>, +may be described. It has been designed for a fancy coloured +costume in the plain weave, and is illustrative of the variety +of effect producible by order of warping and wefting, and +diversity of yarn structure in which hues, tints, and shades of +colours are used. The yarns are of six varieties, <i>A</i>, <i>B</i>, <i>C</i>, <i>D</i>, <i>E</i>, and +<i>F</i>, being composed of two or more colours, and all different in +construction. <i>A</i> is a pronounced knop yarn; <i>B</i> a curl yarn, of +four varieties of colour, namely, deep crimson, orange, pale orange, +and green; <i>C</i> shows the difference in thickness and in wavy effect +possible in gimp yarns; <i>D</i>, irregular twist with knops of fibres; +<i>E</i> and <i>F</i>, more ordinary twists, slack and hard spun intermittently. +These, when arranged as in the fabric to make a check pattern, +with over-checking in green, make a groundwork of colour +which can only be acquired in textiles by using diversity of yarn +structure. Blending in the material, or distributing colour in +the weave, as in the spotted designs, <a href="#fig168"><abbr title="Numbers">Nos.</abbr> + 168</a> to <a href="#fig180">180</a>, all repeat +the colour regularly or in a prescribed pattern; but when the +yarns are so diversified in construction, the colours are, as seen +in the fabric, not selected on any definite method.</p> + +<p>205. <i>Application of Fancy Yarns to Compound Weaves.</i>—Only +two examples need be considered here, as the character of the +results is similar to that of those obtained in single weave fabrics; +only by reversing the position of the threads in the warp and +weft, a prescribed form of pattern, see <a href="#plate29">Plate <abbr title="Twenty-nine">XXIX.</abbr></a>, may be +produced. On this principle, any type of design, as to figure or +form, may be constructed, but it will have the same varied tinting +as single weave fabrics, in which similar yarns are used. +In this design, fancy knops and other cotton twists have been +used. These yarns give the spots of lavender, tan, and scarlet, +which are regularly distributed throughout the pattern. It is a +double-weave structure arranged one thread ground, one thread +of fancy yarn, and one thread of ground.</p> + +<p>A different example produced in worsted yarns, and worsted and +cotton twists, is that given in <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 2, <a href="#plate26b">Plate <abbr title="Twenty-six">XXVI</abbr></a>. It is double +in structure, arranged one thread ground, and one thread fancy +yarn, and not two-and-one, as the style on <a href="#plate29">Plate <abbr title="Twenty-nine">XXIX.</abbr></a> The +ground yarn is a single thread, forming the plain portions of the +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_292">[Pg 292]</span> +fabric, the curled yarn being in dark crimson, heliotrope, orange, +and pale orange. A certain simple outline of pattern is formed +by reversing the face and backing yarns. It is a good blend of +colour, in which there is contrast of hue between the heliotrope +and orange, and contrast of tone between the crimson and +heliotrope; but the chief characteristic is the diversity of colour +surface due to the curl or loop twist yarns, and the way in +which the colours in consequence of their arrangement are +softened in quality.</p> + +<div class="p2 footnotes"><h4>FOOTNOTES:</h4> + +<div class="blockquot"> +<div class="footnote"><p class="unindent"><a id="Footnote_14_14" href="#FNanchor_14_14" class="label">[14]</a> <i>In each case, the order of picking must correspond with the order of the spotting +picks, in the designs.</i></p></div></div> +</div> +<hr class="chap x-ebookmaker-drop"> + +<div class="chapter"> +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_293">[Pg 293]</span> + <h2 class="nobreak" id="CHAPTER_XIII"> + CHAPTER <abbr title="Thirteen">XIII.</abbr> + </h2> + <h3 style="display: none; visibility: hidden;">COLOURING OF DOUBLE WEAVES AND REVERSIBLES</h3> + <p class="center"><span class="larger strong"> + COLOURING OF DOUBLE WEAVES AND REVERSIBLES.</span>⁠<a id="FNanchor_15_15" href="#Footnote_15_15" class="fnanchor">[15]</a> + </p> +</div> + +<div class="blockquot"> +<p>206.

Colouring of Double Cloths, such as Golf Cloakings and Rugs.</p> +</div> + +<p>206. <i>Principles of Double Cloth Colouring.</i>—As briefly +indicated in Chapter <abbr title="Five">V.</abbr>, the general principles of colouring +fabrics of a backed and double-make structure, resemble those +applied to single textures. Particularly is this the case when +the fabrics are the ordinary types of trousering, coating, and +suiting styles. This follows from the fact that the face of these +cloths largely consists of patterns of similar composition to those +produced in single textiles. Still there are some builds of backed +fabrics, which, owing to being coloured on both surfaces, involve +the employment of two distinct schemes of colouring—one for +each side of the fabric. The object to be attained in such fabrics +is the development on the under side of the texture of a pattern +that will, in general tone and character, correspond with that +appearing on the face; but, though this species of colouring on +the back is frequently necessary, inasmuch as it enhances the +selling qualities of the fabric, yet the grouping of the face shades +is the primary consideration, for it must be in accordance with +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_294">[Pg 294]</span> +the weave-compound used in the construction of the cloth, +whereas the scheme of colouring applied to the back is of +secondary importance, and should be made to coincide in its +main outlines with the style of colouring composing the face +of the texture. An example may be analyzed. <a href="#fig163">Fig. 163</a> is a +weave-combination, which it is required to back with warp and +colour on such lines as to obtain a stripe style of pattern on the +under surface. The face order of colouring is given on <a href="#Page_261">page 261</a>, +and has already been treated of. Without describing the +structure of this build of backed fabric, it may be stated that +the arrangement is generally one thread of face weave and one +thread of backing throughout the design. It is usual to plan +the backing warp according to the composition of the face +design, so that the following scheme would, in this instance, be +appropriate:⁠—</p> + +<table> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">30</td> +<td class="tdc pad6">threads of</td> +<td class="tdl">light mixture.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">14</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">medium mixture.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr pad2">30</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">light mixture.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">6</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">slatish blue.</td> +</tr> +</table> + +<p class="unindent">This would result in the production of an effect in colouring on +the back of <a href="#fig163">Fig. 163</a> quite in keeping with the scheme applied +to the face, though the exact order of the face warping is not +followed. The simpler the arrangement of shades on the back +the better, so long as it conforms with the order of colours +producing the pattern on the face side.</p> + +<p>Another method of duplicate colouring in double and backed +cloths, consists in having any ordinary scheme on the back +which comprises a number of threads that is a multiple of the +number occupied by the face pattern. Thus, in the scheme of +colours for the design considered, <a href="#fig163">Fig. 163</a>, there are eighty +threads, hence arrangements comprising twenty, forty, and +eighty threads might be utilized. These are divisible into two +or four stripes, according to the style of effect required on the +back of the texture. In this kind of colouring it is evident that +the combination of face shades is not closely worked to—a +stripe neat in colour composition being the main factor for +development.</p> + +<p>When the yarns for the face and back of the fabric are of the +same size and material, it is a rule in making out the pattern of +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_295">[Pg 295]</span> +warp to combine the two schemes of colouring, but each scheme +is necessarily designed separately. In fabrics backed on the +warp principle, it is feasible to have patterns of a striped +character on the under surface, while if the fabric is backed +with weft, colouring on the back results in striping the texture +transversely; it is, therefore, only by employing the double-cloth +method that all forms of colour effects may be developed +on both sides of the fabric.</p> + +<p>207. <i>Styles of Colour Effects obtained in Double Weaves.</i>—While, +as is evident from the brief definitions of the principles of +double-cloth colouring furnished in the preceding paragraph, the +application of fancy shades to the ordinary groups of double +weaves is more or less analogous to their application to single +weaves and compound designs, yet there are some builds of +double cloths which produce specific styles of patterns, such as +are not obtainable in other descriptions of weaving and schemes +of colouring. Amongst the most useful of these types are the +double-plain, the double-cassimere, the double-mat, and combinations +of these weaves. Patterns obtained in these makes, cover +a large diversity of styles for trouserings, coatings, suitings, +mantlings, shawls, rugs, curtains, and carpets. Here, however, +the plan of colouring is not usually elaborate, being adapted to +the structure of the design. The main characteristic of these +fabrics which distinguishes them from effects obtained in single-make +designs is the firmness and strength of the cloth, combined +with clearness and precision of ornament or pattern. The +utility of this class of design is evident in the varieties of +textures, in which patterns are products of the double-weave +system of cloth construction. As the structure of the weave +is uniform in the fabrics mentioned, there are certain principles +of colouring applicable to each class of effects. But, generally +speaking, the use of a new double-weave necessitates the practice +of a distinct system of colouring.</p> + +<p>208. <i>Double Plains.</i>—For giving variety of effect and pattern, +there is no class of double make more useful than the double +plain. The analyses made in <a href="#CHAPTER_VIII">Chapter <abbr title="Eight">VIII.</abbr></a> of the schemes of +colouring used in the single weave make it evident what are the +common principles of gaining effect by combining fancy shades +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_296">[Pg 296]</span> +in double plain; and, moreover, what is the type of pattern +here producible; for, as the system of interlacing is still plain—one +fabric being formed above or over the other—whatever +pattern is workable in the single weave may, by duplicating +the plan of colouring, be also obtained in the double weave. +Bearing this principle in mind, the methods of pattern development +in double-weave designs of all classes will be readily +understood.</p> + +<p>The simplest type of effects developed in this structure of +weave is stripe patterns. It includes fabrics of two, three, and +four shades. As a rule, the shades combined are of a mellow +and subdued character, being more in keeping with the build of +the fabric than bright shades. Still, in fine worsted and cotton +textures, somewhat brighter shades are employed than in woollen +fabrics, which, being usually felted, mainly consist of patterns +resulting from combining toned colours. These stripes may be +of any dimensions, from line-like effects to broad bands several +inches in width. Next to stripe patterns in importance are +intermingled patterns. Such styles possess a peculiar diversity +of minute effects, which makes them readily distinguishable from +the mingled patterns obtained in other weaves and methods +of colouring. Some of these effects will be analyzed. Checks, +diagonals, small figured styles, and elaborately ornamented +textiles, are also developed in these weaves. All these fabrics +are double plain throughout. Though the weave is apparently +an unimportant factor, yet it is closely related to the pattern +produced, and has moreover to be modified with every change +effected in the outline and form of the design resultant. Strictly +speaking, all double plain patterns are composed of at least +two weaves—one of which brings the odd series of yarns on +to the face, and the other the even series. It follows that if a +cloth is warped and woven one-and-one—say black and white—that +one make gives a black, and the other a white effect +on the face of the fabric. Remembering this principle, it +will be evident how, by changing these weaves in working out +figured or ornamental patterns, any construction of design may +be acquired.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp51" id="plate29" style="max-width: 30.3125em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/plate29.jpg" alt="Reversible Knop-twist"> + <figcaption style="color: blue;"> + <p>Plate <abbr title="Twenty-nine">XXIX</abbr><br> + <span class="allsmcap">REVERSIBLE KNOP-TWIST YARN PATTERN</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_297">[Pg 297]</span> +209. <i>Classification of Double Plain Stripes.</i>—Striped designs, +obtainable by colouring double plain designs according to various +systems, are as follows:⁠—</p> + +<p> <abbr title="One">I.</abbr> Patterns in two shades.</p> +<p> <abbr title="Two">II.</abbr> Patterns in three shades.</p> +<p><abbr title="Three">III.</abbr> Patterns in four shades.</p> +<p><abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr> Patterns in two, three, or four shades, comprising double + plain and other weaves.</p> + +<p>The most elementary form of pattern obtained in the double +plain is the “hairline.” It resembles in appearance the effect +produced by warping and wefting the single plain make thread-and-thread, +only the fabric is sounder and firmer in build, as +well as finer and more compact in construction. This simple +style is a product of a certain method of colouring the double +plain, but the same weave can be arranged and coloured to yield +an endless variety of patterns.</p> + +<p>Three-shade stripes are, on the average, richer in colouring +than the first order of patterns, and include the most useful +forms and builds of double plain stripes. The third class, while +composed of a larger number of shades, lacks scope for diversity +of arrangement. As to the patterns comprised in the fourth +class, they are rarely composed of more than two shades, but +owing to containing additional weave elements they are more +diversified in design.</p> + +<p>210. <i>Double Plain Stripes in Two Shades.</i>—These are of two +types: <abbr title="One">I.</abbr> Patterns warped and woven one-and-one; and <abbr title="Two">II.</abbr> +Patterns coloured variously, but in strict accordance with the +structure of the design used. Allusion will primarily be made +to the <abbr title="One">I.</abbr> type of these styles. In this form of pattern, it is a +question of arranging the double plain weaves on such principles +as to produce any style of stripe pattern. Take an illustration. +Patterns 1 and 2 on <a href="#plate30a">Plate <abbr title="Thirty">XXX.</abbr></a> are double plain stripes obtained +by this method. The colourings are as follows:⁠—</p> + +<table> +<tr> +<td class="tdc pad4" colspan="2">1.</td> +<td></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">1</td> +<td class="tdc pad6">thread of</td> +<td class="tdl">olive.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">1</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">slate.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdc pad4" colspan="2">2.</td> +<td></td></tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">1</td> +<td class="tdc">thread of</td> +<td class="tdl">brown.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">1</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">brown and white twist.</td> +</tr> +</table> + +<p>The feature for analysis is, how the various combinations of +stripes, and in Pattern 2 of twilling, are developed in these +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_298">[Pg 298]</span> +textures, which are composed solely of double plain weaves. +Pattern 1 is an assortment of small stripes of four different sizes +worked out in two shades. If necessary, the design—<i>i.e.</i> the +plan of weave—could be so modified as to give a pattern in +which the stripes would not only run from a broad to a narrow +band, but tone off on both sides. A brief analysis of the design +for this texture, given in <a href="#fig190">Fig. 190</a>, will make it evident what the +principles of weaving are, which determine the construction of +this kind of pattern. Here two double plain makes are combined, +one of which floats the odd, and the other the even threads and +picks on the face. Now these weaves are so grouped in this +design that they give a pattern corresponding in every detail with +<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 1 on <a href="#plate30a">Plate <abbr title="Thirty">XXX.</abbr></a> The use of these two weaves, and the +method of adjustment, are two elements of design to which all +such styles of woven effects are due. The weave marked in grey +is the reverse of that marked in dots, for it brings the even set +of threads on to the face, while the weave, ⊡, takes them on to +the back. When it is considered that the arrangement of +colouring is one slate and one olive, and that each of these +weaves forms two fabrics one over the other, it becomes obvious +that in Sections <i>A</i> of the design (<a href="#fig190">Fig. 190</a>) a slate stripe of plain +fabric will cover an olive stripe of similar dimensions; but in +Sections <i>B</i> a plain olive band conceals a corresponding stripe of +slate. Referring to <a href="#fig191">Fig. 191</a>, which is the weave arrangement +for producing Pattern 2 of <a href="#plate30a">Plate <abbr title="Thirty">XXX.</abbr></a>, it will be observed that it +is a style containing, in addition to the stripe effects, a series of +clear twills. Evidently these have been developed on the same +system as the preceding example, which consists of the identical +weaves and order of colouring as <a href="#fig191">Fig. 191</a>. Diversity of +pattern has, therefore, been acquired by adopting a different +method of combining the weaves. This is effected by first +sketching out on point paper the exact form of the pattern +required, and then adding weave <i>A</i> of <a href="#fig190">Fig. 190</a> to the uncoloured +parts, and weave <i>B</i> to the coloured sections. It will +be subsequently shown that reversible double plain styles are but +developments of this species of designing.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp100" id="fig190" style="max-width: 43.75em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig190.jpg" alt="Double-plain stripe"> + <figcaption> + <p class="smcap">Fig. 190.</p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp100" id="fig191" style="max-width: 43.75em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig191.jpg" alt="Double-plain stripe"> + <figcaption> + <p class="smcap">Fig. 191.</p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp100" id="fig192" style="max-width: 43.75em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig192.jpg" alt="Double-plain stripe"> + <figcaption> + <p class="smcap">Fig. 192.</p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>211. <i>Two-Shade Stripes Warped Irregularly.</i>—First, there +are styles of this class which are compositions of two shades, and +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_299">[Pg 299]</span> +in which variety of pattern is only producible by ingenious +methods of grouping fancy yarns. By the aid of two examples +(Patterns 1 and 2, <a href="#plate31a">Plate <abbr title="Thirty-one">XXXI.</abbr></a>) it may, however, be shown that +even when thus limited to the use of two colours a considerable +range of patterns may be acquired. The order of shades for +Pattern 1—the design for which is given in <a href="#fig192">Fig. 192</a>—is:⁠—</p> + +<table> +<tr> +<td colspan="2"></td> +<td class="tdc" colspan="2"><i>Warp</i>.</td> +<td></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr" rowspan="2">For 54 threads.</td> +<td class="tdl">⎧</td> +<td class="tdl">6</td> +<td class="tdl pad6">threads of</td> +<td class="tdc">slate.<br></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">⎩</td> +<td class="tdr">2</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">black.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr" rowspan="2">For 58 threads.</td> +<td class="tdr">⎧</td> +<td class="tdl">8</td> +<td class="tdl pad6">threads of</td> +<td class="tdc">black.<br></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">⎩</td> +<td class="tdr">2</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">slate.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td colspan="2"></td> +<td class="tdc pad4" colspan="2"><i>Weft</i>.<br></td> +<td></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td colspan="2"></td> +<td class="tdl">1</td> +<td class="tdc pad6">pick of</td> +<td class="tdl">slate.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td colspan="2"></td> +<td class="tdl">1</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">black.</td> +</tr> +</table> + +<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_300">[Pg 300]</span> +One principle that requires to be taken cognizance of in +making double plain stripes is, that while only every other +thread comes on to the face, every pick, to some extent, is useful +in forming the pattern on the right side of the fabric. As the +principal feature of such styles is the solidity of the several lines +of colour, providing these do not exceed four in number, it +becomes a problem of so constructing the design that each shade +of weft used, shall only float or flush over that colour of warp +yarn it is supposed to match. To produce a stripe in two colours +is comparatively simple; but, in the example given in Pattern 2 +on <a href="#plate31b">Plate <abbr title="Thirty-one">XXXI.</abbr></a>, the difficulty of arranging the plan of weave +is increased by varying the order and size of the lines of colour. +Thus, there are bands of colour of eight, six, and two threads +each, or, on the face, of four, three, and one thread respectively. +If the design, <a href="#fig192">Fig. 192</a>, is examined, it will be observed that the +odd picks only cover the face-threads in parts <i>D</i>, which are the +slate threads in the fabric, while the even picks are arranged +to cover the face-threads in part <i>A</i> only. Should the weave +be further dissected, it will also be noticed that picks 1, 3, 5, +and 7 interlace plain with the face-threads of <i>D</i>, but that picks +2, 4, 6, and 8 interlace plain with the face-threads of sections +<i>A</i>. In this manner, the solidity of each stripe of colour, which +is the essential feature of such styles, is kept intact, and a +pattern formed possessing distinctness of parts. This example, +and <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 1 of <a href="#plate31a">Plate <abbr title="Thirty-one">XXXI.</abbr></a>, + illustrate the numerous effects producible +in these weaves by this method of colouring. Both parts +<i>A</i> and <i>B</i> of Pattern 1 form stripe arrangements. By varying +the number of bands of these respective combinations, useful +species of pattern are producible. Pattern <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 2 shows how a +broad band of one shade may be worked into the texture, and +then a line-like stripe of a second shade formed upon it.</p> + +<p>There is one peculiarity about the weave-design—<a href="#fig193">Fig. 193</a>—forming +the drab band in Pattern 2 of this Plate, which contains +eighteen threads. The ordinary double plain used in <a href="#fig190">Figs. 190</a>, +<a href="#fig191">191</a>, and <a href="#fig192">192</a> is untied; + it follows that if some sixteen or more +threads were used, as in this instance, the woven pattern would +be loose and unsatisfactory in structure. So long as no more than +eight threads form a stripe, tieing may not be necessary; but when +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_301">[Pg 301]</span> +this number is exceeded, a weave must be employed that, while +tied or stitched, will not interfere with the neatness, compactness, +and uniformity of this type of woven colouring. The weave +generally used for this purpose is given in part <i>A</i> of <a href="#fig193">Fig. 193</a>. +Though somewhat irregular in construction, it produces a fabric +perfectly even on both surfaces, and as smart and clear in other +respects as the double plain texture. The order of colouring +for this example is: <i>Warp</i>, 18 threads of drab, 2 threads of +brown; and <i>weft</i>, 1 pick of brown and 3 picks of drab. The +drab picks never float over the face-ends of brown, and, on the +other hand, the brown picks always float under the drab face-ends—this +being the principle of intertexture to which the +solidity of the respective lines of colour is due.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp50" id="fig193" style="max-width: 25.0em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig193.jpg" alt="Double-plain stripe"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 193.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp40" id="fig194" style="max-width: 23.6875em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig194.jpg" alt="Double-plain stripe"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 194.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>212. <i>Styles in Three or more Colours.</i>—Some extremely +interesting and effective stripes are got in double plain weaves +by employing three and four colours. Two examples—Patterns +3 and 4 on <a href="#plate31b">Plate <abbr title="Thirty-one">XXXI.</abbr></a>—are furnished in styles composed of +three shades. The weave for producing the former (<a href="#fig194">Fig. 194</a>) is +simple, being so constructed as to form lines of lavender, claret +brown, lavender and white. By comparing the order of colouring—which +is given below—with the weave, the principles of +design in which the pattern is obtained are obvious:⁠—</p> + +<table> +<tr> +<td class="tdc pad4" colspan="3"><i>Warp.</i></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">4</td> +<td class="tdc pad6">threads of</td> +<td class="tdl">lavender.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">2</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">claret brown.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">4</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">lavender.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">2</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">stained white.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdc pad4" colspan="3"><i>Weft.</i></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">1</td> +<td class="tdc pad6">pick of</td> +<td class="tdl">lavender.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">1</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">stained white.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">1</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">lavender.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr">1</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">claret brown.</td> +</tr> +</table> + +<p>It will be noticed that the first pick is lavender; the reason +for this is, that in the design the face-thread of lavender is down, +and if it were covered by any other colour but its match in +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_302">[Pg 302]</span> +shade, the solidity of the lavender line would be interrupted. +Pattern 4 of this <a href="#plate31b">Plate</a> contains the same number of colour +elements, but is quite different in arrangement. The design for +this styles—<a href="#fig195">Fig. 195</a>—is so planned as to yield an effect, on the +face of the fabric, as follows: a stripe of four threads of claret +brown and white twist, a fine line of lavender, a stripe of four +threads of claret brown and +white twist, a fine line of +lavender, a fine line of claret +brown, a fine line of twist, +a fine line of claret, and +a fine line of lavender; in +other words, it forms a compound of eight separate bands of +colour.

The +twills or makes used should be capable of forming neat patterns +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_303">[Pg 303]</span> +when coloured on the one-and-one system, which is the invariable +method of wefting such designs. Referring to <a href="#fig196">Fig. 196</a>, which is +a weave compound of this description, stripes of double plain +are united with a stripe of corkscrew, resulting in the construction +of the style given in Pattern 3 on <a href="#plate30a">Plate <abbr title="Thirty">XXX</abbr></a>. The +colours are maroon and dark green, and are grouped on the end-and-end +system in both warp and weft; hence the solid lines of +these shades in the double plain parts, and the oblique twills of +maroon and green in the corkscrew sections of the fabric. +Practically there are two points to consider in the selection of +weaves for combining with double plain crossings, namely, the +wefting capacity of the crossing, <i>i.e.</i>, its power to weave regularly +with the plain; and, second, its structure in regard to the scheme +of shade-assortment practised in these designs. Respecting the +first point, if another double make should be used, such as +cassimere or mat for face, and plain for back, there would not be +much liability to form a fabric lacking regularity of construction +and hence evenness of surface; but, should the additional weaves +be single in construction, they must be exactly of such structure +as to work uniformly with the double plain. One point that may +be noted in designing for these combinations, is to frequently +divide the pattern, and so avoid the formation of broad bands of +the several weaves. Then, as to the structure of the crossings in +respect to colouring. Warp twills and warp weaves are most +suitable, because they do not exhibit the weft colouring to any +marked degree, and hence they allow of quite a distinct method +of tinting being introduced in the warp of the sections of the +design in which they occur.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp90" id="fig196" style="max-width: 43.75em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig196.jpg" alt="Compound design"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 196.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>Styles of this description are neat in form and colouring. +Being characterized by smartness of composition and richness +of textural effects, they are developed to a large extent.</p> + +<p>214. <i>Intermingled Double Plain Compounds.</i>—The most +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_304">[Pg 304]</span> +uncommon effects producible in double plain crossings are +possibly those resulting from employing schemes of colouring +containing an odd number of threads, such as 2, 1, 1 and 1, and +the 4, 1, 1 and 1 groupings. The +weave used in such schemes of combining +shades is given in <a href="#fig197">Fig. 197</a>. +In larger styles, sections <i>A</i> and <i>B</i> are +increased to sixteen threads and picks +each.

The dimensions of each repeat of the pattern +are due to the order of grouping the colours, combined with the +weave. Thus, as there are fifty-six threads in each repeat of the +colourings before the plan of weaving coincides with the order +of the shades, the pattern of warp must run through two, and +the weave through sixteen repetitions. The cause of the construction +of this pattern consists in the appropriation of a system +of colouring, containing a number of threads not a multiple of +the number of ends and picks in the weave. This scheme of +colouring is practised in fine worsteds and woollens for mantlings, +in medium counts of yarns for suitings, and also in linen and +cotton textures for vestings. +</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp79" id="plate30a" style="max-width: 25.0em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/plate30a.jpg" alt="Stripe patterns"> + <figcaption style="color: blue;"> + <p>Plate <abbr title="Thirty">XXX</abbr><br> + <span class="allsmcap">DOUBLE-PLAIN STYLES</span><br> + <span class="smaller">1. 2. 3.

On the +diamond base, forming Pattern 5 of <a href="#plate31e">Plate <abbr title="Thirty-one">XXXI.</abbr></a>, + an indistinct +check in orange silk is distinguishable; and in this plan of weave +and by irregular orders of colouring, many varieties of spotting, +intermingled checkings, and other effects in minute and in clear, +bold patterns, are produced in various counts of both woollen and +worsted yarns. The 2 black, 1 twist, 1 grey, and 1 twist, method +of colouring is also useful for this purpose, yielding a form of +pattern that can be diversified by modifications in colouring.</p> + +<p>215. <i>Reversibles.</i>—Double and treble weaves are employed +in the construction of these effects. Amongst the compound +weaves used for this purpose, the double plain is one of the +most important. It gives a species of figuring as clearly developed +on one side of the texture as on the other. The system +of colouring is mainly one-and-one, with some slight modification, +such as a stripe or check effect in addition to the ornamental +details worked out in colour. This principle of weaving is +practised in the decoration of woollen and worsted shawls and +rugs, tapestries, curtains, and Kidder and Scotch and other carpets. +In the examples given in <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 4, <a href="#plate30d">Plate <abbr title="Thirty">XXX.</abbr></a>, + and <abbr title="Numbers">Nos.</abbr> 1 and 2, +<a href="#plate32a">Plate <abbr title="Thirty-two">XXXII.</abbr></a>, two builds of fabrics are represented, namely, +the double plain and the double twill. An important element of +all such figuring, distinguishing it from that obtained by other +schemes of weaving, is the clearness with which the details and +component parts of the design are developed. This characteristic +is a product of the double-weave arrangement. Taking, for +instance, the shades of a texture thus constructed to be black and +white, it follows that from any double-make combination in which +the figuring is produced by changing the positions of the weaves, +that is, by transferring that weave on to the back which has +appeared on the face, and <i>vice versâ</i>, there must result a pattern +clear in outline and general composition. No other principle +of weaving is capable of giving effects so well pronounced in +these features: other figured styles are more or less wanting in precision +and regularity of outline. Reversibles are made in double +weaves arranged on the one-and-one, the two-and-one, and the +three-and-one principles. The first method is the most frequently +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_306">[Pg 306]</span> +practised. When the second and third schemes are adopted, the +yarns used are of two sizes—that forming the figure being considerably +thicker than that employed for the ground of the texture.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp74" id="fig198" style="max-width: 31.25em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig198.jpg" alt="Figured reversible"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 198.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>216. <i>Methods of Colouring Double Plain Reversibles.</i>—Generally +these are not very intricate, the main work in ornamenting +such fabrics consisting in the adoption of a well-arranged +design, with the various sections of the figuring correctly represented +on point paper. A few illustrations may be described. +On <a href="#plate30d">Plate <abbr title="Thirty">XXX.</abbr></a>, Pattern +4, and on <a href="#plate32a">Plate <abbr title="Thirty-two">XXXII.</abbr></a>, +are textures for dressing-gowns +and shawls. +Sections of each design +are given in <a href="#fig198">Figs. +198</a>, <a href="#fig199">199</a>, and <a href="#fig201">201</a>. It +should be observed +that in executing these +styles the first work +relates to sketching the +pattern on point paper, +the weaves being subsequently +added. The +ground sections are +occupied by the opposite +weave to that applied to the figured parts. There should not +be figure outlines requiring less than two threads and picks to +develop, or the effect in the woven fabric will not be satisfactory. +It should be considered in preparing these designs that practically +every other thread and pick are duplicate yarns—both the odd +and even threads not being utilized simultaneously in the construction +of the pattern on the face of the cloth. Providing +the figure has been correctly worked out on point paper, an +appropriate scheme of colouring has then to be applied. Here +various technical details and other points have to be considered, +such as the structure of the design, whether bold or subdued +colouring is the most suitable, and the scheme of grouping shades +necessary to develop the ornamental forms of the style. First, the +shades of yarn are arranged, one-and-one, throughout, in order to +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_307">[Pg 307]</span> +meet the structure of the double plain weaves. Second, it may +be useful to consider types in which the designs are clearly +pronounced in every detail, and others in which the figuring +is more or less subdued. Take, for example, the worsted shawl +pattern, <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 4 on <a href="#plate30d">Plate <abbr title="Thirty">XXX</abbr></a>. By warping and wefting thus:⁠—</p> + +<table class="smaller"> +<tr> +<td class="tdr" rowspan="2">96</td> +<td class="tdl">⎧</td> +<td class="tdl">1</td> +<td class="tdc pad6">thread</td> +<td class="tdl">dark shade,</td> +<td class="tdl pad2" rowspan="2">96</td> +<td class="tdl">⎧</td> +<td class="tdl">1</td> +<td class="tdl pad6">thread</td> +<td class="tdl">dark shade,</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdl">⎩</td> +<td class="tdl">1</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">blue,</td> +<td class="tdl">⎩</td> +<td class="tdl">1</td> +<td class="tdl">„</td> +<td class="tdl">white,</td> +</tr> +</table> + +<p class="unindent">the figuring on the face of the fabric is developed in the dark shade, +and the ground in the white and blue, the effects on the under +side being exactly the reverse of those on the face.

The order of warping +and wefting is one thread of blue and one thread of stained +white, so that the structure of the weave-design produces the +ground of the texture in blue, and the figure is stained white. +The opposite effect obtains on the reverse side of the fabric +from that represented in the illustration, the colours which +form the ground on one side composing the figure on the +other.</p> + +<p>220. <i>Compound Colourings in Compound Weaves.</i>—This is a +good principle of colouring for vesting styles, either in woollen +or worsted yarns.

According to the first method, the fancy +shades are introduced into the warp only—the weft being of +one colour throughout the texture. This scheme of colouring is +practised in various types of mantlings and dress fabrics, also +pile textures of a figured velvet and plush class, and Brussels, +tapestry, and velvet pile carpets. Each additional colour in these +styles of woven productions may involve the use of a separate +set of warp yarns, which, as will be indicated, materially +increases the complications of manufacture. Turning to the +second system of colouring named, which also obtains in certain +descriptions of dress textiles, and in vestings, rugs, and matelasses, +it necessitates the employment of several groups of weft +threads of different colours. On comparing these two distinct +schemes, it may be observed that while the former relates to +the utilization of various warp shades—which multiplies the +difficulties of weaving in two ways, first, by requiring a Jacquard +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_320">[Pg 320]</span> +of large figuring capacity; and, second, by increasing the +diversity of the warp colouring—the latter relates to the employment +of various groups of weft yarns, which add to the complexity +of production by increasing the number of cards necessary +in the construction of the design, and by making the use of +a number of shuttles a necessity. Lastly, the third method is +a combination of the arrangements just considered, and is +applicable to similar fabrics. It is, for obvious reasons, the +most complex system of colouring, and is only feasible in looms +specially constructed and mounted for the weaving of figured +fabrics, comprising both warp and weft colouring in a considerable +diversity of shades.</p> + +<p>223. <i>Special Elements of Ornamental Woven Design.</i>—Woven +design requires distinct treatment from other species of +decoration; it is not simply surface ornamentation, for it also +relates to the production of a suitable fabric for developing the +details of the pattern. Every description of textile designing +has, in a word, a two-fold relation, for it is both utilitarian and +ornamental. Primarily, it relates to the construction of a +texture uniform in surface and of the requisite quality and +strength; and, secondly, it relates to the decoration of the fabric. +Ornament in woven structures is inseparable from the weave +which produces it. Consequently, it cannot be applied with the +same facility to a textile surface as to paper-hangings, porcelain, +etc. In these instances, the designer’s work consists in the +embellishment of an article obtained by a distinct process +of manufacture; whereas, in textiles, warp and weft are the +elements out of which both the pattern and the fabric are +evolved. Design or ornament and texture have by these +agents to be developed simultaneously. Instead of manipulating +straight and curved lines in the formation of the pattern, threads +of warp and weft have to be interlaced on such methods as to +constitute the design required. In order to develop the integral +parts of woven design, by imparting appropriate prominence to +certain sections and subordinating others, a knowledge of the +structure of textile fabrics in general is indispensable. Elaborate +textile designing is only perfect so far as the various figures +and details of the ornament are clearly defined in weaving. + +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_321">[Pg 321]</span> +The correct delineation of the objects, and evenly-balanced +grouping and distribution of figure, chiefly affect the artistic +phases of the subject. Textile pattern is too frequently marred +by defective and faulty development. Either the materials used +are unsuitable for displaying the characteristics of the style, or +the designer has only partially understood the work. With the +form and general conception of the design there is no fault to +be found, but with the manner in which it has been executed.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp78" id="plate33" style="max-width: 43.75em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/plate33.jpg" alt="Vesting"> + <figcaption style="color:blue"> + <p>Plate <abbr title="Thirty-three">XXXIII</abbr><br> + <span class="allsmcap">1. VESTING<br> + 2. REVERSIBLE GOLF CLOAKING</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>224. <i>Art and Technique.</i>—It will be obvious from the preceding +paragraph that technical dexterity in textile designing is +the power of developing, with appropriate emphasis, all types of +ornamental effects, whether in relation to form or colour, with +the construction of a fabric uniform in texture and soundly +built. Technology relates primarily to weaving, but in an +ampler sense to the invention and combination of schemes of +crossings calculated to add novelty and uniqueness to woven +design. Technical or weave patterns provide, however, infinite +diversity of texture. It may be ribbed, furrowed, twilled, +diagonalled, or covered with pile. Weave design is the feature +of the ornamentation of some types of silk patterns (see <a href="#fig232">Fig. 232</a>). +Of course it is materially enhanced by artistic elements of form +and colour, for technique and art are, in these fabrics, essential +to each other. In all woven decoration, art is the natural and +requisite associate of technique. Technique determines the +strength and fineness of the fabric; art determines its ornamental +force and symmetry of the design. Technique regulates +the distribution of materials; art appoints the forms, groups the +figures, and blends the colours.</p> + +<p>225. <i>Styles of Figured Fabrics Coloured in the Warp.</i>—The +simplest type of figured textures coloured on the warp principle +is essentially single in construction. There is no duplicate +series of yarns for colouring purposes, but a special set of threads +used in certain sections of the ground warp of the fabric. +Pattern 1 on <a href="#plate34a">Plate <abbr title="Thirty-four">XXXIV.</abbr></a> illustrates this scheme of colouring. +From this example and the section supplied of the design in its +production—<a href="#fig206">Fig. 206</a>—it is apparent that the texture is constructed +on the single-weave principle, the only irregularity +consisting in a number of threads—white in the pattern—being +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_322">[Pg 322]</span> +flushed or floated on the surface of the fabric to form the figure +in stripes <i>A</i>, <i>B</i>, <i>C</i>, and <i>D</i>. The weft effect is therefore concealed +in these sections of the texture. In warp matelasses, the same +principles of weaving and colouring obtain—the weft yarns +acting as binding agents, and not appearing on the face in the +figuring, unless a special set of weft yarns is employed, as in +some styles of matelasse vestings, spotted with bright colours. +This description of warp effect is, however, a compound fabric, +possessing two warps and two +wefts, and may be arranged +two threads of figuring to +one thread of ground in the +warp, but one-and-one in the +weft. The ground warp is +invariably cotton, but the +figuring warp is worsted, +silk, or mohair. One weft is +thick cotton or wool, and is +used for wadding or for +giving fulness and clearness +to the design, and the other +is fine cotton, worsted, or +silk, according to the quality of fabric produced. Not infrequently, +an additional woollen weft is employed for backing.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp50a" id="fig206" style="max-width: 25.0em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig206.jpg" alt="Weave for Fig 205"> + <figcaption> + <p>Part 4 of Pattern 1, Plate <abbr title="Thirty-four">XXXIV.</abbr><br> + ▨   ◼ = warp.<br> + <span class="smcap">Fig. 206.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp80" id="fig207" style="max-width: 31.25em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig207.jpg" alt="Extra-warp figuring"> + <figcaption> + <p>Marks = warp.<br> + <span class="smcap">Fig. 207.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<figure class="figright illowp50a" id="fig207a" style="max-width: 25.0em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig207a.jpg" alt="Section Feb 207"> + <figcaption> + <p>First 16 threads of <a href="#fig207">Fig. 207</a>. + <span class="smcap">Fig. 207a</span>.</p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>Quite a distinct scheme of warp colouring is practised in some +classes of dress and plush textures from that just alluded to. +These fabrics are, in those sections in which several colours run +m the same line of the design, two-, three-, and fourfold in +structure, according to the number of colours used. In Pattern +2 on <a href="#plate34b">Plate <abbr title="Thirty-four">XXXIV.</abbr></a> a fabric coloured on this principle is given. +It is a vesting style of the quilting character, but is illustrative of +the common methods of colouring by extra series of warp yarns. +On analysis, it is found to be composed of three tints—a white +ground, and brown and tan figuring. These are introduced in +the warp. Now in such textures there is invariably a ground +warp or chain which runs through the fabric, and forms, conjointly +with the weft, a firm fabric to which the figuring yarns +are secured. This ground warp, usually of one colour, is drawn +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_323">[Pg 323]</span> +on to a set of shafts, and is worked plain, twill, mat, and other +simple crossings. The method of combining the figuring yarns +is shown in <a href="#fig207">Figs. 207</a> and <a href="#fig207a">207<span class="allsmcap">A</span></a>. In the former, the effects +are arranged as they are seen in the texture, the blank spaces +representing the ground of the fabric, the greys the tan spotting, +and the solid blacks the brown figuring. +<a href="#fig207a">Fig. 207<span class="allsmcap">A</span></a> shows how +the figuring threads succeed each other in the harness. Between +each two threads of figuring there is one ground end. When +three or four colours are employed +in figuring, there is one ground end +for each group of threads. The +different series of fancy yarns, working +on distinct systems with the weft, +have to be run on to separate beams—an +arrangement which adds to the +cost of manufacture. Moreover, the +principle of construction minimizes +the weaving capacity of the machine. +If a design, for example, requiring a +192 Jacquard to produce it when developed in one colour, +had to be modified to be woven in three colours, each of +which formed some part of the figure, it could not be produced +in a machine possessing a less capacity than 576 wires. In +addition to this machine, the ground of the texture would be +obtained by shafts or heddles. The same design, if coloured in +the weft, would be weavable in a 192 Jacquard, but would +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_324">[Pg 324]</span> +require 576 cards for developing the figure and 192 cards for +producing the ground of the fabric. Hence, while the warp +method of colouring is the most economical in respect of cards, +weaving, and card stamping, the weft method does not necessitate +the employment of a Jacquard of such large figuring capacity.</p> + +<p>Amongst the ornamental styles of woven goods coloured in +the warp that may be analyzed, are cotton quiltings, velvets, +and various classes of pile fabrics.</p> + +<p>226. <i>Cotton Quilting Fabrics.</i>—Quiltings being one of the +most interesting and important of warp-coloured figured textures, +may be primarily examined.</p> + +<p>In texture and ornament, they constitute a specific type of +woven fabrics. One essential in which they differ from other +textures of a vesting character consists in the figure or ornamentation +being produced by several colours, or rather series, +of warp threads. Belonging to that class of fabrics figured +by the warp and not by the weft yarns, the designs are +arranged to elevate or depress any particular set of threads, +according to the section of the pattern being formed. The +threads which constitute the ground of the texture, compose +what is termed the ground warp, while other series of yarns +are “extras.” A similar arrangement of warps is employed +in some classes of plush, tapestry, and carpet weaving, but in no +fabric is an identical effect obtained to that which characterizes +this kind of vesting.</p> + +<p>The warps which produce the figured pattern in quiltings +do not flush or float loosely on the surface, but are regularly +secured to the foundation texture, making a “fast” figure, that +is, a pattern which, though marked and well pronounced, is +even on the surface and firm in construction.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp100" id="plate34a" style="max-width: 43.75em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/plate34a.jpg" alt="Stripe design"> + <figcaption style="color:blue;"> + <p>Plate <abbr title="Thirty-four">XXXIV</abbr><br> + EXTRA-WARP COLOURING<br> + 1.

Quilting Texture</p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>Generally, quiltings have a light or white groundwork, which +is neatly ornamented with small lozenge, diaper, or other figured +effects. The plan of the design (<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 2, + <a href="#plate34b">Plate <abbr title="Thirty-four">XXXIV.</abbr></a>) is +geometrical, yet there is an absence, due to the floral details, +of that rigid appearance which is frequently associated with +patterns constructed on this base. Weave, or the system of +interlacing adopted, is the factor which imparts a variety of +tone and effect to the style. The texture is woven in three +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_325">[Pg 325]</span> +colours—brown, tan, and white. The floral and sprig combinations +are formed of the first colour, the raised or diamond +portions of white, and the indentions of tan. The quantity +of white or tan in any particular part of the fabric is due +to the structure of the design employed. The groundwork +of the fabric is neat and effective. It consists of a fine texture +of white, slightly raised above the indented border surrounding +the figures. The small diamond effects are produced by the +lifting of the figuring warp, which imparts an indented appearance +to the cloth. On this groundwork, two rectangular objects +are placed in such a way that the inverted figures they +contain oppose each other. Treating of the rectangular objects +first, they are separated by the diamond groundwork, and +also by the narrow border of dotted effect, in which, in the +fabric, the tan colour is the most prominent. The space +between this edging and the central figures on which the +floral and sprig work are delineated, consists of rib or rep. +Here the white and tan are equally balanced. The sprig +ornamentation is characteristic of this style of vestings. It has +not been produced, nor can it be applied with such facility, to +other types of woven fabrics. The fineness of the texture, +and smallness of the threads employed, make it possible to +develop the most minute figuring quite distinctly. A neat +and interesting contrast is obtained by having the sprig effect +in one figure faintly marked, while in the other the floral work +is both bolder in form and more compact in arrangement.</p> + +<p>227. <i>Ornamental Characteristics of Quilting Designs.</i>—The +ornament applied to this make of fabric is so unique that it +deserves to be briefly noted. It is typical of the texture +in which it is developed, being, so to speak, part of its construction. +No other build of fabric admits of the production of +such fine, line-like, and detailed figured effects as are obtainable +by this principle of weaving. The most minute decoration +is here delineated with a precision that it would be difficult to +surpass with the pencil. All the figures employed are graceful +and delicate in appearance, due mainly to the absence of +floats of warp or weft from their composition. Elaborate designs, +crowded with combinations of form, are thus produced by a neat, +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_326">[Pg 326]</span> +tasteful method. Some patterns which would appear coarse in +other makes of fabric, possess in these textures clearness, combined +with an effective arrangement. The examples supplied in +Pattern 2 on <a href="#plate34b">Plate <abbr title="Thirty-four">XXXIV.</abbr></a>, + and Pattern 1, <a href="#plate35a">Plate <abbr title="Thirty-five">XXXV.</abbr></a>, are +illustrations of the minute character of the ornamental forms +developed in these fabrics. Whatever the class of figuring +practised, it is full of small twig and floral effects and clear and +precise details.</p> + +<p>228. <i>Attributes of Plush Fabrics.</i>—Another description of +woven production coloured in the warp is plushes, including +imitation astrakhans, the figured velvet, and several classes of +carpets, for example, Eastern, tufted, and Axminster. The distinguishing +quality of all plush fabrics is the soft shag or pile +with which they are so covered that one of the essential features of +a woven texture—namely, the crossing of warp and weft threads—is +entirely concealed. The pile is of two kinds: in some +fabrics it consists of a uniform mass of cut short filaments, +while in others it is in the form of minute curls or loops compactly +clustered together; but in both cases, it projects from the +surface of an ordinary texture. The fineness of the fibre and +density of the plush both combine to conceal the foundation +on which it is produced. The characteristic appearance of +velvet, as well as its quality of softness, which distinguishes it +from all other loom products, are due to the pile alone. The +beauty of the fabric is dependent upon the compactness and +uniform evenness of the pile, any inequality in the length of +the fibres of which it is composed producing an irregular and +defective appearance in the texture. In plush weaving, one +series of threads forms a species of curl or loop on the ground +of the fabric; or such threads, after having been secured to the +foundation of the texture, are cut into short filaments, causing +them to be erect on the surface of the texture: hence a plush or +velvet fabric is an ordinary texture overspread with a compact, +dense pile.</p> + +<p>229. <i>Origin of Velvet Weaving.</i>—Velvets are said to have +been originally produced in Asia. The Chinese claim to have +been the makers of a fabric of this description at a comparatively +early date. Velvet manufacture, for a considerable period after +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_327">[Pg 327]</span> +its introduction into Europe, was confined to Italy, where, in +the weaving establishments of Venice, Milan, Florence, and +Genoa, it was extensively carried on with marked success. Two +Genoese manufacturers, Etienne Turquetti and Barthélemy Narri, +under the patronage of Francis <abbr title="One">I.</abbr>, in 1536, are reported to have +commenced velvet weaving in Lyons, at which place it has +down to the present day remained an important industry. The +productions of the French looms speedily surpassed those of +Italy, both in fineness of texture and in soft, lustrous appearance. +Rather more than a century after velvet manufacture had been +established in France, it was introduced into England by the +refugees of that nation when compelled, by the Revocation of +the Edict of Nantes, in 1685, to leave their country, who, coming +over to England, settled in Spitalfields, the ancient seat of the +English silk industry, and there domesticated this important +textile art.</p> + +<p>230. <i>Velvets, Compound in Structure.</i>—All velvets are what +may be termed compound in construction—that is to say, one +series of threads is appropriated to the production of the <i>ground</i> +of the texture, while a second series is employed in the formation +of the <i>pile</i>; in other words, there are distinct warps or wefts +necessary to produce the plush and foundation of the fabric +respectively. As to the ground, it may be formed of the plain +make or of a fine twill. The threads used in the production of +the pile may be of various colours, and treated in such a manner +as to yield a shag or plush of several lengths. When the pile is +obtained in the warp it may be either cut or uncut; that is, +the plush may be formed of small, curl-like loops, or of merely +the ends of threads projecting from the body of the cloth. In +figured plushes, the various parts of the pattern are developed +by resorting to these two modes of producing effects, some +sections of the pile being cut, and others remaining uncut, while +to further enhance the character of the design an ottoman rib +effect may also ornament specific portions of the fabric.</p> + +<p>231. <i>Two Classes of Plush Fabrics.</i>—Technically, plushes are +divisible into two great classes: (1) Weft plushes, or fabrics in +which the pile is formed of flushes of extra weft yarns distinct +from those producing the ground of the fabric. (2) Warp plushes, +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_328">[Pg 328]</span> +or fabrics in which the pile results from the use of extra warp +yarns distinct from and independent of the warp utilized in +forming the foundation of the texture proper.</p> + +<p>The richest effects are producible on the latter principle, +which is probably the original method of plush weaving. Weft +plushes comprise, however, a considerable variety of textures, +including velveteens, corded velveteens, corduroys, astrakhans, +and feather trimmings.</p> + +<p>232. <i>Warp Plushes.</i>—In the first place, let it be understood +that for whatever purpose the fabric is intended, at least two +warps are essential in its production. Though wound on to +separate beams and subjected to different tensions, yet they are +so combined by the weft yarn, that they both, when amalgamated, +become important factors in the same texture. The +weave used in the construction of a warp plush is essentially of +a two-fold character, consisting of a ground crossing, and of a +flush arrangement for producing the pile effect. Plain, mat, rib, +and twill weaves are applied to the ground, according to the +fineness and characteristics of the required texture. As to the +pile, it may be either cut or uncut, of one or several colours, and +also of such variable lengths as are requisite to the development +of the forms contained in the pattern. Whatever the character +of the plush, it is due to the employment of wires which are +inserted between the threads of the pile warp. Thus the wires +are introduced when the series of threads in the ground warp is +depressed, and such threads elevated in the pile warp as are in +accordance with the formation of the design. In some velvets +the whole of the pile warp is lifted for the insertion of each wire. +<a href="#fig208">Fig. 208</a> illustrates the system on which the wires are employed, +as well as the manner in which they produce the pile. Only +nine warp threads, six picks of weft, and three wires are represented. +The threads lettered <i>A</i> form the pile, and those lettered +<i>G</i> the ground warp. In this diagram the wires are shown +entering the warp when threads <i>G</i> are depressed and threads <i>A</i> +elevated.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp87" id="fig208" style="max-width: 31.25em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig208.jpg" alt="Warp-pile structure"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig</span>. 208.</p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>233. <i>Methods of securing the Pile.</i>—Fastening the pile is an +important feature of the weaving process. Unless a sufficient +number of ground picks is inserted between the wires, and unless +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_329">[Pg 329]</span> +they form such interlacings with the pile warp as to secure +the threads it contains to the ground of the texture, whether +the plush is looped or cut, it will draw out, and the result will +be a defective fabric. A point, therefore, that should have +careful attention is that of securing the pile in such a manner +that it will remain erect after the withdrawal of the wires. +The usual method of effecting this consists in arranging for the +ground picks to float over the pile threads, both immediately +before and after the insertion of the wires, as illustrated in <a href="#fig208">Fig. 208</a>. +This plan is adopted, because it has not only a tendency +to force the wires into position, but to keep them there. It is +not, however, the only system; in fact, there are two other +useful methods of forming a “bed” or foundation for the wires. +One feature of this arrangement is common to all systems, +namely, the pile warp is depressed after the insertion of each +wire; consequently any difference existing between this and +other modes of fastening the plush will be found in the plan +of interlacing the picks <i>preceding</i> the wire. For example, in +making tapestry carpets, the pile warp is not down, but up, +in the shed before that formed for the wire; while in a third +system, the pile threads float over two ground picks and the +wire in succession. Both these systems are better adapted for +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_330">[Pg 330]</span> +the insertion of a large number of wires to the inch of the fabric +than the first method described.</p> + +<p>234. <i>Analysis of the Process of Velvet or Warp Plush Weaving.</i>—The +The weaver, having interlaced the requisite series of +ground shoots between the threads of the combined warps, +proceeds to form a division in the threads, by depressing the +whole of the ground warp, and in some cases the half of the pile +warp, for the admission of the wire. This shed remains formed +until the wire has been passed from side to side of the warp +and with the grooved edge towards the sley of the going part. +On the wire having thus been fixed, the reed is brought +against the texture already woven, carrying the wire along +with it, which it causes to rest on its lower edge. In this +upright position it is maintained by keeping the going part +in contact with it, till a new division of the threads (obtained +by depressing all the threads covering the wire and elevating a +portion of those floating under it) is secured, when the sley or +reed is removed from the fell of the cloth and a ground pick +introduced to be driven into contact with the ground shoot +which preceded the wire. On this principle the wires are bound +to the ground of the fabric, for the threads covering them are not +only securely woven into the texture by the shoots preceding, +but also by those following their insertion. After the proper complement +of ground picks has been added, the process of inserting +the wires is repeated, several wires always being retained in the +fabric. The necessity for this is obvious; thus, if the weaver, +before he has introduced a sufficient number of wires, passes his +knife within the groove of the first wire, and so cuts the loops +covering it, the pile ends would, when tension was put on the +warp in the formation of the next shed, draw out, and thus the +plush would be destroyed. This is descriptive of the hand +method, by which some of the finest decorative silk pile fabrics +are produced. In ordinary velvets and carpet weaving, whether +Brussels (loop pile) or Axminster (cut pile), the wires are inserted +and withdrawn by automatic mechanism. In cut pile carpet +weaving, at the end of each wire is a short blade tapering to +the end of the wire, so that, when the wire is withdrawn, the +threads of pile warp covering its upper edge are cut. +</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp92" id="plate35a" style="max-width: 43.75em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/plate35a.jpg" alt="Vesting design"> + <figcaption style="color:blue;"> + <p>Plate <abbr title="Thirty-five">XXXV</abbr><br> + <span class="allsmcap">COLOURING OF FIGURED FABRICS IN THE WARP</span><br> + <span class="smaller">1.

Threads <i>B</i> are grey pile, and +threads <i>T</i> are white pile. The ground of the texture is formed +by threads and picks <i>G</i>. The two sets of pile yarns are wound +on to separate beams. As the marks in this case indicate +threads lifted, it will be noticed that on the first wire only one +pile thread is up, namely, <i>B</i>¹, both the white and the ground +ends being depressed. The second wire elevates <i>T</i>¹, the third +wire <i>B</i>², and the fourth wire <i>T</i>²; so that +in each repeat of the design all the pile +yarns are up once. This is one method of +colouring plush fabrics, and is practised in +the production of fancy effects in which no +figure or ornamental design is required. +When colour is introduced into styles of a +figured class for robes and mantlings, it is +accomplished on other systems. Pattern 2, <a href="#plate35b">Plate <abbr title="Thirty-five">XXXV.</abbr></a>, and +Pattern 1, <a href="#plate36">Plate <abbr title="Thirty-six">XXXVI.</abbr></a>, are illustrations of two types of plush +or velvet colouring.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp30" id="fig209" style="max-width: 18.75em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig209.jpg" alt="Weave structure"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 209.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>Pattern 2 on <a href="#plate35b">Plate <abbr title="Thirty-five">XXXV.</abbr></a> is a velvet pile colouring. Several +warps have been employed in its construction, white silk for +ground, pale sage green for the principal figure, and variously +coloured warps for the minor parts of the pattern. To produce +elaborate textiles of this description a complicated form of loom +mounting is necessary. First, the ground warp, which is run off +a special beam, is passed through a set of shafts hung before the +harness and worked by the Jacquard or a dobbie machine. +Second, one section of the harness receives the green warp, and +other sections the various hues composing the remaining warps. +These figuring warps are also mounted on separate beams or +run off bobbins or miniature beams, each thread being tensioned +separately. The designs have to be so prepared that all the +effects which are intended to be of one colour will fall exactly +in the same line or occupy the same threads in design.</p> + +<p>This is also illustrated in <a href="#plate36">Plate <abbr title="Thirty-six">XXXVI.</abbr></a>, + a pattern with silk +sateen ground, and with the figuring developed as follows:⁠—</p> + +<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_332">[Pg 332]</span></p> +<p class="unindent indent5">Green leaves and stems in loop and cut pile.<br> + Tinted-rose flowers in loop and cut pile.<br> + Underneath or subdued design in terry or loop pile. +</p> + +<p class="unindent">An effective contrast, which is characteristic of pile colouring, is +seen in the tone of the cut and loop pile in the green and tinted +rose. The difference is so marked as to appear the result of +colours of dissimilar qualities. The cut pile imparts a soft, full +colour, and the terry, an apparently lighter colour, but of the +same hue. This technicality relates specially to pile-fabric +colouring. By using the same colour of yarn, <i>e.g.</i> green or +salmon pink, two tones of green and two tones of pink are +acquired. This design element is used in the development of +ornamental details; shading in either leaves or flowers being +rendered feasible with one colour of yarn.</p> + +<p>Another contrast to be noted is that between the sateen ground +and the terry pile figuring. The terry is deeper in quality, and, +if produced in cut pile, would be still fuller in depth of tone. +In construction or loom mounting, the sateen warp would be on +one beam, the ground or foundation warp on a second beam, +and the pale green, dark green, and salmon-pink warps on +bobbins, being individually tensioned, as in Axminster or Brussels +carpet weaving.</p> + +<p>236. <i>Brussels and Tapestry Carpets compared.</i>—Brussels +and tapestry carpets are so similar in appearance that they +might be regarded as fabrics of the same structure. But, when +the principles on which the pattern is obtained in the respective +carpets are examined, it is at once evident that in the Brussels +the design is purely a woven effect, in the tapestry it is a print. +The technical differences between these manufactures being +understood, there are causes apparent for the superior wearing +qualities of the Brussels. First, in point of colouring it possesses +a distinct advantage over the tapestry, for all the shades used in +its composition are supposed to be “fast,” the yarns being hank +dyed and not coloured in the warp. Second, the pile is fuller +and made of better materials, while the thickness and substance +of the fabric are not due to strengthening threads, like the +“body” of the tapestry, but to the worsted yarns used in the +formation of the pile. Third, the pattern is more smartly +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_333">[Pg 333]</span> +defined, its various parts being clearly and distinctly developed; +whereas the figure in tapestry carpets is more or less indistinct, +arising from the system on which the pattern is produced.</p> + +<p>237. <i>How the Pattern is developed in Brussels Carpets.</i>—The +weaving of this carpet possesses some characteristic features. +The pile warp, for instance, instead of running off ordinary yarn +beams, is wound, as stated, on bobbins, or miniature beams, fixed +in frames, or a large creel, placed behind the loom. Each colour +requires what is technically called a separate frame. A five-frame +Brussels is a carpet with this number of colours succeeding each +other in the same line of the fabric. The manner in which the +various colours are controlled—in other words, in which they +are concealed from, or brought into, view—is an important +factor in the manufacture of this article. On examining a +Brussels carpet, it will be observed that the individual threads +forming the pile seem either to be composed of several colours, +or to be substituted by yarns of other shades, according to the +section of the pattern being formed. For instance, in the same +line of the design, looking at the fabric lengthways, apparently +in the same thread, as many as from three to five colours, such as +brown, green, fawn, scarlet, and blue, form the pile in succession. +If these effects are not due to a printed yarn, they result +from the employment of five distinct threads, each of which is +so controlled that it only appears in the pile when assisting to +develop the design. The question occurs, How are the threads +concealed when not appearing on the face of the fabric? An +important principle of weaving is implied in the production of +results of this character. Whatever the colour of the warp yarn +in a single cloth, the pattern is, throughout the piece, continuously +tinged with that shade, excepting in such positions as it is +crossed with the weft thread. In a double cloth two colours of +warp yarns may be applied to one line of the fabric; that is +to say, supposing the shades selected were black and white, the +pattern produced might be composed of these colours alternately, +while in a triple-make fabric three shades could be brought on +to the surface of the texture in succession. Effects of this order +are due to changing the positions of the threads of the respective +warps by reversing the weaves. The several shades of +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_334">[Pg 334]</span> +a Brussels carpet are manipulated on this compound-weave +principle of intertexture. To obtain a three-frame pattern composed, +say, of green, scarlet, and olive, at least three separate +weaves are necessary—one for each shade. Thus the weave +used in forming the shed in the warp for the green pile is so +arranged as to depress the scarlet and olive, while that for +giving the scarlet pile conceals the green and olive threads, +and lastly, that for producing the olive pile conceals the green +and scarlet ends; so that, by an appropriate application of +these respective weaves to the design, the colours are brought +up in the figure where required.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp80" id="fig210" style="max-width: 31.25em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig210.jpg" alt="Three-colour pile"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 210.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>238. <i>Structure of Pile Carpets.</i>—<a href="#fig210">Fig. 210</a> is a sketch of the +interlacing of the threads in a section of this class of carpet, +and is a three-frame structure. The positions the threads +occupy when not covering the wires, will be evident on examining +the illustration. Thus it is clear that when a thread +of pile yarn is not active in the formation of the figure, it is +covered or concealed by the wire and ground shoots of weft. +Take thread <i>b</i>, for instance, which, having covered the first +two wires shown, floats underneath the succeeding wires; a +similar arrangement obtains in the interlacings of thread <i>c</i>, +which floats under wires 1 and 2, and over wires 3 and 4, +while thread <i>a</i> is covered by the first four, but flushes over +the last two wires; hence each class of pile threads interweaves +with the ground weft on the same system, producing +a carpet of uniform strength, and one in which every species +of pile is equally permanent.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp100" id="plate36" style="max-width: 43.75em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/plate36.jpg" alt="Sateen ground"> + <figcaption style="color:blue;"> + <p>Plate <abbr title="Thirty-six">XXXVI</abbr><br> + <span class="allsmcap">FIGURED PILE SPECIMEN, SATEEN GROUND</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> +<hr class="chap x-ebookmaker-drop"> + + +<div class="chapter"> +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_335">[Pg 335]</span> + <h2 class="nobreak" id="CHAPTER_XV"> + CHAPTER XV + </h2> + <h3> + WEFT-COLOURED FIGURED FABRICS—CURL TEXTURES. + </h3> +</div> + +<div class="blockquot"> +<p>239.

A comparison of these two important +systems of introducing colours into figured fabrics, shows that +the actual weaving process is less intricate so far as shuttling +is concerned—not more than one or two shades of weft being +employed—in warp-tinted textiles; but, as explained in <a href="#CHAPTER_XIV">Chapter +<abbr title="Fourteen">XIV.</abbr></a>, each additional colour in the same line of the design +requires a special warp beam. These arrangements are just +reversed in the weft system, for here there may be from two to +six shades of weft running in the same line of the fabric, but +only one warp is utilized. These conditions make the production +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_336">[Pg 336]</span> +of such fabrics a laborious operation, inasmuch as the number +of picks inserted to the inch in four- or five-colour styles may +be very large. Thus, in a pattern composed of the latter number +of colours throughout, two or more hundred picks to the inch +is not uncommon.</p> + +<p>Whatever number of shades occur in succession across the +pattern it is exactly so many fold in the weft, whereas if the +colours are introduced in the warp the texture is several fold +lengthways. The different kinds of weft or warp form layers +of threads in the woven product. When they are composing +the ornamental details of the design they appear on the face +of the fabric, but when not thus used they float loosely on the +back, only being stitched at intervals, and in patterns of several +shades they are frequently not stitched at all. The loose yarns +flushing on the under surface of the texture may be cut off. +One other detail in the two systems affecting economic production +is, that in the weft system, a somewhat inferior or +rather less costly yarn may be used than when colouring by the +warp scheme. There is a minimum degree of tension put on +weft yarns and a maximum degree applied to warp yarns in +weaving. In coarse fabrics and cotton textiles this condition +does not materially alter the cost of manufacture, but in fine +productions it is an item that has to be considered. Summarizing +these points of dissimilarity, the warp method of colouring +affords the most scope for the development of ornament in pile +or plush goods; does not multiply the intricacies of shuttling, +but tends to diminish the figuring power of the Jacquard, and +requires yarns of a better quality than may be adopted for +wefting; on the other hand, the weft method practically +allows of more latitude for diversity of colouring and ornamentation +of all types of fabrics excepting the plush and +leno, and it is, moreover, in fine textiles, less costly, in so +far as it makes it feasible to employ an inferior fancy +thread with satisfactory results; and lastly, it utilizes the +utmost capacity of the Jacquard in the construction of a figured +design.</p> + +<p>240. <i>Classes of Designs Coloured in the Weft.</i>—Fabrics figured +and coloured by the weft yarns are of various kinds, but to +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_337">[Pg 337]</span> +facilitate analysis they may be considered under the following +distinguishing types:⁠—</p> + +<table> +<tr> +<td class="tdr vlt"><abbr title="One">I.</abbr></td> +<td class="tdh">—Designs in which the figure is a product of the ground weft.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr vlt"><abbr title="Two">II.</abbr></td> +<td class="tdh">—Designs requiring one extra weft.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr vlt"><abbr title="Three">III.</abbr></td> +<td class="tdh">—Designs requiring two extra wefts.<br></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr vlt"><abbr title="Four">IV.</abbr></td> +<td class="tdh">—Designs requiring three extra wefts.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr vlt"><abbr title="Five">V.</abbr></td> +<td class="tdh">—Designs requiring four or five extra wefts.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr vlt"><abbr title="Six">VI.</abbr></td> +<td class="tdh">—Designs composed of two or more wefts and reversible.</td> +</tr> +</table> + +<p>As in warp colouring, a ground warp is an essential element +of the fabric, in textiles coloured in the weft—Classes <abbr title="One">I.</abbr> to <abbr title="Five">V.</abbr> +inclusive—there must also be a ground weft, which forms a +suitable texture on which the more elaborate ornamentation due +to the fancy shades may be produced. By extras are meant the +shades of weft in addition to the ground picks. A design with +two extra wefts is called two-cover; with three extras, three-cover, +and so on—the ground weft always being added. The +word “cover” is therefore synonymous in this sense with +“extra,” and has probably been adopted because it partially +describes the texture to which it relates, which consists of so +many layers or covers of weft threads in thickness.</p> + +<p>241. <i>Designs in which the Pattern is a Product of the Ground +Weft.</i>—In this build of fabric there is comparatively little complication +of fabric-structure, of weaving, and of colouring. Thus +the weft, which interlaces with the warp to form the ground of +the fabric, is also used in the construction of the design. Some +types of dress fabrics, particularly those of a lustre character, +and mantlings for summer wear, are coloured and ornamented +on this principle. It may be regarded as the most elementary +type of figured fabric. An example is given in Pattern 1 on +<a href="#plate37">Plate <abbr title="Thirty-seven">XXXVII.</abbr></a>, which will show the scheme of colouring +generally practised in this style of textures. A section of the +weave-design is that in <a href="#fig211">Fig. 211</a>. It will be observed that the +small figures are composed of solid weft floats, and are arranged +on a fine sateen twill groundwork. The warp is composed of +lavender cotton, and is mainly useful in constituting the foundation +of the fabric, and in concealing the weft picks when they +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_338">[Pg 338]</span> +are not forming the figured effects. The small objects are +chintzed with weft colouring, the order of picking being four +of dark blue and four of white. This gives the pattern the +aspect of a cloth composed of extra wefts. It should be noted +that such a contrast in weft colouring, as obtains in this specimen, +is only satisfactory in this build of texture when the warp is +closely set, and flushes well in the ground sections. If these +conditions were not complied with, the pattern produced +would be chintzed by the weft in not only the figure, but +also in other parts of the texture. A plain or twill weave, for +example, would expose the blue and white shades right across +the sample.</p> + +<figure class="figleft illowp49a" id="fig211" style="max-width: 25.0em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig211.jpg" alt="Weft figuring"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 211.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<figure class="figright illowp49a" id="fig212" style="max-width: 25.0em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig212.jpg" alt="Extra-weft colouring"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 212.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>Respecting the construction of this style of fabric: it is based +on the single-make principle of design. The figure is purely +a product of floats of the weft yarn, which are determined by +the form of the figure being developed. In some patterns the +ornamental sections are composed of twill and other fancy +weaves to increase the diversity of effects obtained.</p> + +<figure class="figright illowp50" id="fig213" style="max-width: 25.0em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig213.jpg" alt="Design for Fig 212"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 213.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>242. <i>Extra Weft Styles.</i>—Fabrics of this description are +practically two-fold in the weft. An illustration will make the +scheme of colouring and design arrangement evident. Pattern 3, +<a href="#plate37c">Plate <abbr title="Thirty-seven">XXXVII.</abbr></a>, + is compound in the weft and single in the warp; +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_339">[Pg 339]</span> +for the wefting consists of deep lavender-blue wool, and of white +silk, and the warping entirely of lavender cotton. The warp +threads are concealed, but this is not an invariable rule, for they +may be a different shade from the wefts, and be flushed on the +surface of the texture. When this is the case, a buckskin weave +is generally used for the ground of the cloth. Should, however, +the wefts be worsted and silk, or woollen and silk, and the warp +cotton, it is customary to conceal the latter by employing a +weave which flushes the ground weft on the face. For vesting +and mantling fabrics, this is the common arrangement, but in +dresses and cottons, the warp is also used for enhancing the +colouring of the fabric. This latter type of design is a compound +form of the system illustrated in <a href="#fig211">Fig. 211</a>, two wefts being used +instead of one, and each being +utilized in the construction of +the figured effects, and also in +forming a fine warp twill in the +ground of the fabric. Different +principles of designing are +practised from these, in the construction +of such styles as are +typified by Pattern 3 of <a href="#plate37c">Plate +XXXVII</a>. <a href="#fig212">Figs. 212</a> and <a href="#fig213">213</a> +are the weave designs to Section <i>A</i> of this pattern. +The former +illustrates the method of preparing designs of this class on point +paper for the loom, and the latter the method by which the two +series of picks are amalgamated during weaving. <a href="#fig213">Fig. 213</a> is +the last eight picks of <a href="#fig212">Fig. 212</a>, the ◼’s of which form the odd +and the ⊡’s the even picks. This is the structure of the fabric; +for in stamping the cards each pick of the design as given in +<a href="#fig212">Fig. 212</a> is treated twice: <abbr title="One">I.</abbr>, the ⊡’s and the ◻’s are cut; <abbr title="Two">II.</abbr>, the +◼’s and ◻’s are cut. The stitches for the silk or figuring picks +are added during stamping, and occupy similar positions in the +design to those on picks <i>A</i> and <i>B</i> of <a href="#fig213">Fig. 213</a>. The principle of +stitching here corresponds to that of stitching cloths backed +with weft—so that the ties are, as far as feasible, introduced in +such positions in the picks, that the threads on which they +occur are depressed both before and after their insertion. Thus +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_340">[Pg 340]</span> +thread seventeen, on which the tie on pick <i>A</i> occurs, is depressed +on picks twelve and fourteen—resulting in the concealment of +this tie.</p> + +<p>Whatever the number of colours used in the construction of +this style of figured fabrics, the designs are simply drawn out +as in <a href="#fig212">Fig. 212</a>, which shows the relation of the colours to each +other in the woven structure.</p> + +<p>The manner in which the different effects seen in Pattern 3 of +<a href="#plate37c">Plate <abbr title="Thirty-seven">XXXVII.</abbr></a> + have been produced may be explained by referring +to <a href="#fig213">Fig. 213</a>. The first pick of this sectional design—marked +in solid squares—is a figure pick, being white in the texture, and +corresponding to pick 25 of <a href="#fig212">Fig. 212</a>. The second pick is ground, +and also corresponds to the twenty-fifth pick. Now it will be +observed that the figuring picks in <a href="#fig213">Fig. 213</a> float under the +threads occupied by the ground picks <i>succeeding</i> them; and +also that the ground picks float under the threads occupied by +the figuring picks <i>preceding</i> them. In this way the effects due +to the two series of picks—lavender and white, or ground and +figure—are kept separate and distinct, and a clear pattern is +developed on an equally clear and regular groundwork.</p> + +<p>The figured sections here, as in Pattern 1 of the same plate, +may be chintzed, as this process does not increase the number +of “extras” required. As to the ground of these styles, it is +generally a solid colour.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp100" id="plate37" style="max-width: 34.375em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/plate37.jpg" alt="Chintzed"> + <figcaption style="color:blue;"> + <p>Plate <abbr title="Thirty-seven">XXXVII</abbr><br> + <span class="allsmcap">FIGURED AND SPOTTED FABRICS. + WEFT COLOURING</span><br> + <span class="smaller">1.

Extra weft Spotting</p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>243. <i>Vestings.</i>—One of the most important species of woven +design to which this scheme of colouring relates is vestings. +These fabrics are composed of various materials, and constructed +on different principles of design, and may be figured in the +warp, weft, or both, but in this example only coloured and +figured by the weft yarns. It necessarily follows that the +most elementary type of this class of patterns only possesses +one extra weft, as the example just considered. This extra +colour does not, however, always run through the texture, but +merely spots it at intervals. Some of these fabrics are composed +of cotton and linen in the ground, with these materials or +silk for spotting; others possess a worsted or woollen warp, +with worsted or woollen ground weft and silk extras; a third +class has a cotton warp, with woollen ground and silk figuring; +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_341">[Pg 341]</span> +while a fourth class has silk warp and weft for face, and cotton +warp and weft for foundation. The first group is mainly produced +in light shades for summer wear; the second series has +either light or dark grounds; the third series is invariably developed +in dark shades, and the fourth in dark and light colours. +In the cotton and linen vesting the compound principle of +intertexture is utilized; but whatever the weave-construction +of the fabric, the scheme of colouring is uniform. Moreover, +in the woollen and cotton ground textures, but little +diversity of weave is practised in producing the groundwork of +these styles; whereas, in the worsted and silk types, various +crossings and combinations of weaves are used for this purpose. +The construction of the worsted warp vesting affords scope for +weave ornamentation in the foundation of the fabric as well as +for elaborate figuring by variety of colouring. The two worsted +vestings given in <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 2 and + <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 4, <a href="#plate37d">Plate <abbr title="Thirty-seven">XXXVII.</abbr></a>, + are, for +example, very different from each other in groundwork. The +former has a broad diagonal foundation (<a href="#fig216">Fig. 216</a>) composed of +several thirteen-shaft weaves; but the latter a fine corkscrew +twill in the ground. <a href="#fig214">Fig. 214</a> also illustrates another system of +ornamenting the ground of these textures with weaves. If the +spots developed in ⌻’s were removed, this design would be a rib +pattern composed of fine twill and weft cord. With the addition +of the spots it forms a neat vesting. In colouring, the rib consists +of a distinct shade from either the twilled parts or the +spotting. This is obtained by wefting as follows:⁠—</p> + +<table class="autotable"> +<tr> +<td class="tdr" rowspan="2">For 12 picks.</td> +<td class="tdl">⎧</td> +<td class="tdl">1</td> +<td class="tdc">pick of</td> +<td class="tdl">black worsted.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdl">⎩</td> +<td class="tdl">1</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">dark blue worsted.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdr" rowspan="4">For 8 picks.</td> +<td class="tdl">⎧</td> +<td class="tdl">1</td> +<td class="tdc">pick of</td> +<td class="tdl">silk.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdl">⎨</td> +<td class="tdl">1</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">black worsted.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdl">⎪</td> +<td class="tdl">1</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">silk.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdl">⎩</td> +<td class="tdl">1</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">dark blue worsted.</td> +</tr> +</table> + +<p>This grouping of shades gives a silk spot in the twill parts on +a black ground, and a rib effect in dark blue.</p> + +<p>In the designing of the ground sections of worsted vestings, it +is important to obtain an effect which combines neatness with +novelty and richness of colouring.</p> + +<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_342">[Pg 342]</span> +244. <i>Vestings with one Extra Weft.</i>—Only one specimen in +this type of vesting is furnished. It is given in Pattern 4 on +<a href="#plate37d">Plate <abbr title="Thirty-seven">XXXVII.</abbr></a>, + and, as stated in the previous paragraph, has a +corkscrew ground. The weaving plan for this pattern is supplied +in <a href="#fig215">Fig. 215</a>. The spots of which it is composed are arranged on +the six-end sateen base. The silk picks used in forming the +spotted effects are tied regularly, as indicated by the small line +marks in the design; hence, in preparing for the loom, the first +pick would be stamped twice thus: <abbr title="One">I.</abbr>, cut all but the marks ▨ +and—; <abbr title="Two">II.</abbr>, cut all but the marks ⌻.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp59" id="fig214" style="max-width: 25.0em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig214.jpg" alt="Rib or cord stripe"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 214.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp59a" id="fig215" style="max-width: 25.0em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig215.jpg" alt="Spotted vesting"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 215.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>It will be observed that the spots in the fabric (Pattern 4, +<a href="#plate37d">Plate <abbr title="Thirty-seven">XXXVII.</abbr></a>) + are composed of green, blue, and crimson.

The base on which the design is constructed causes the +respective spots of blue, green, and crimson in the pattern to be +neatly distributed over the corkscrew twill surface forming the +groundwork of the fabric.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp100" id="fig216" style="max-width: 43.75em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig216.jpg" alt="Diagonal design"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 216.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>245. <i>Two-Cover Vestings.</i>—Vestings of this class possess one +ground weft and two +“extras” for figuring. +Loud patterns only being +occasionally required in +these textures, a scheme of +figuring is practised which +reduces the cost of production. +Thus the spots or +figures are only produced +here and there in the fabric, +a considerable number of +ground picks intervening. +In this way, the quantity +of silk used is considerably +diminished. An example +may be considered in which +two extras are necessary +in developing the spotted +effects. It is the diagonal +pattern given in <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 2 on +<a href="#plate37b">Plate <abbr title="Thirty-seven">XXXVII.</abbr></a>, and referred +to in the previous +paragraph. The ground +design here is composed of +four weaves—fine corkscrew, +weft sateen, twilled +mat, and an upright twill—and, +apart from the small +figures, occupies 288 picks. The spots are developed in two hues, +and are arranged on this diagonal base on a sateen method, six +occurring in each repeat of the pattern. Those sections of the +design—<a href="#fig216">Fig. 216</a>—in which the spots occur are three-fold in composition, +the ground, crimson, and green wefts being combined. +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_344">[Pg 344]</span> +Picks lettered <i>A</i>, for example, comprise one spot, and include the +ground, crimson, and green picks. The ties for the extra wefts +are on the principle indicated. The system of wefting which +has been practised in producing the pattern formed of the design +worked out on the base of <a href="#fig216">Fig. 216</a> is as follows:⁠—</p> + +<table class="autotable"> +<tr> +<td class="tdr" rowspan="3">For 24 picks.</td> +<td class="tdl">⎧1</td> +<td class="tdc">pick of</td> +<td class="tdl">black worsted.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdl">⎨1</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">crimson silk.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class="tdl">⎩1</td> +<td class="tdc">„</td> +<td class="tdl">green silk.</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td></td> +<td class="tdr">40</td> +<td class="tdc">picks of</td> +<td class="tdl">black worsted.</td> +</tr> +</table> + +<p class="unindent">Blue and white, orange and blue, and salmon and light-blue, also +give neat patterns.

Pattern 1 of <a href="#plate39">Plate <abbr title="Thirty-nine">XXXIX.</abbr></a> is an example. +The warp of this fabric is cotton, but as the ground weave is +a five-end weft sateen, it flushes the worsted picks constituting +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_347">[Pg 347]</span> +the foundation of the texture on the surface, concealing thereby +the cotton yarns. A section of the design used in weaving this +example is given in <a href="#fig221">Fig. 221</a>. By changing the ground weave +to twill, and employing a shade of warp distinct from the weft, +the pattern could be improved in colouring. As here tinted, +however, it is evident that by this scheme of designing ornamental +details may be clearly developed in the texture. The +order of wefting is one pick of light fawn, one pick of black +silk, and one pick of lavender silk. The texture being two-cover, +the process of card stamping is as follows: <abbr title="One">I.</abbr>, cut blanks, +solid blacks, and small circles; <abbr title="Two">II.</abbr>, cut crosses, blanks, and +circles; and <abbr title="Three">III.</abbr>, cut crosses, blacks, and blanks.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp67" id="fig221" style="max-width: 43.75em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig221.jpg" alt="Figured pattern"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 221.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>249. <i>Four-Cover Pine Design.</i>—An interesting specimen of +four-colour figuring is given in Pattern 2 on + <a href="#plate38b">Plate <abbr title="Thirty-eight">XXXVIII.</abbr></a> +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_348">[Pg 348]</span> +It is a good combination of colours, textile effects, and principles +of weaving. First, as to the blending of tints and the figuring +obtained. Though only four colours are used in the weft—claret, +lavender or blue grey, olive, and salmon—yet five-tinted +effects are produced. The extra tint is due to interweaving the +warp—which is a bright crimson—plain with the salmon weft, +forming that intermingled colouring composing the ground of the +interior of the pine figures. The rich claret shade which constitutes +the ground of the fabric gives a velvety aspect to the +entire pattern, and develops the other tints in the texture.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp64" id="fig222" style="max-width: 43.75em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig222.jpg" alt="Pine figuring"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 222.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>The order of wefting and colouring is thus: <i>warp</i>, all crimson; +<i>weft</i>,1 pick of claret, 1 pick of salmon, 1 pick of lavender, and +1 pick of olive.

This is apparent from <a href="#fig222">Fig. 222</a>, +which is the weave-design of the upper part of the pine figures. +Here the solid squares correspond to the claret in the texture, +the dots to the salmon, the circles to the lavender, and the grey +marks to the olive.

The structure of the fabric is seen from +the section of a design of this character, <a href="#fig224">Fig. 224</a>, the colours +being inserted chiefly in the weft. The weaves in the various +parts of the figuring are fine twills running in different directions, +and the ground is warp twill. Each kind of mark +represents the different colour of weft in which the figuring +is developed. Each colour stitches in the weft to make a continuous +twill.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp57" id="fig223" style="max-width: 43.75em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig223.jpg" alt="Pine figuring"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 223.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>251. <i>Compound-Weft Reversibles.</i>—Reference should be made, +in treating of fabrics coloured in the weft, to rugs and reversible +textures, for some classes of shawls, and—in light materials—for +mantlings. These textures are composed of weaves which +are double or three-fold in the weft but single in the warp +Thus they are of such a character as to allow of the employment +of two series of weft threads of different colours. One +layer of picks is spread over the other. This will be understood +on referring to <a href="#fig225">Fig. 225</a>. The weaves used in the construction +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_350">[Pg 350]</span> +of this 2-ply build of fabric are supplied in <a href="#fig226">Fig. 226</a>. They are +simply swansdown twills backed, hence, when combined and +woven in a warp composed of small yarns, and with thick weft +yarns arranged one pick black and one pick grey, a textile is +produced of the same structure as that represented in <a href="#fig225">Fig. 225</a>. +Here it is apparent that the system of weaving causes the black +picks to cover the grey picks in part <i>A</i>, and <i>vice versâ</i> in part +<i>B</i>. In the actual texture, the black picks are close together, +completely concealing the layer of picks over which they are +spread. The same may be remarked of the grey picks in part +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_351">[Pg 351]</span> +<i>B</i>; consequently the warp threads, being small, are all but +entirely hid, and indeed they should not be observed on either +side of the finished fabric.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp89" id="fig224" style="max-width: 43.75em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig224.jpg" alt="Paisley shawl"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 224.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>As the designs are two-fold in the weft, they may contain twice +the number of picks to threads per inch, in which case they would +be worked out on 8-by-16 point paper. Having determined on +the ornamental arrangement of the pattern, say that given in +<a href="#fig227">Fig. 227</a>, the sketch is transferred on to the plan paper on the +same principle as in designing for double-plain reversibles. +Weave <i>A</i> of <a href="#fig226">Fig. 226</a> is then applied to the figured sections, and +weave <i>B</i> to the ground, and for the hard effect or shade, a weave +arranged 2 picks face and 2 picks backing, intermingling the two +colours, is also used.

The ordinary system +relates to flushing the warp and weft—which are of different +shades—in the construction of the figure, as is instanced in +Pattern 3 of <a href="#plate39">Plate <abbr title="Thirty-nine">XXXIX.</abbr></a> + Here the outside of the oblong +figures consists of floats of weft, and the interior of floats of +warp. Now by warping 96 ends of crimson and 96 ends of +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_353">[Pg 353]</span> +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_354">[Pg 354]</span> +lavender, and weaving 96 picks of tan and 96 picks of white, +several tinted effects are obtained. First, a solid square of +lavender is formed; second, square <i>B</i> is composed of crimson +and lavender; third, square <i>C</i> is composed of crimson and tan; +and fourth, square <i>D</i> is composed of tan and lavender. By this +scheme of colouring and weaving, considerable diversity of +pattern is producible.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp30" id="fig229" style="max-width: 18.75em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig229.jpg" alt="four-shaft"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 229.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp50" id="fig230" style="max-width: 25.0em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig230.jpg" alt="Six-shaft"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 230.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p><a href="#fig231">Design 231</a> is an example in compound warp and weft colouring. +The colour of the warp of this fabric would partially form +both the ground and the figured effects.

The ⌻’s +represent the rib groundwork, the dots the light brown, and +the greys the solid floats of warp.

One of the objects here is to +manufacture a fabric similar in appearance, texture, and general +character to the original astrakhan. But at the same time, it is +sought to acquire these effects by cheaper and more expeditious +methods than are practised in making astrakhan, lambskin, and +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_356">[Pg 356]</span> +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_357">[Pg 357]</span> +similar fabrics. The production of cheap, serviceable “curls” +has led to the construction of spiral, curled, and knopped yarns—all +threads which, when appropriately employed, impart a +curly surface to the cloth.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp42a" id="fig232" style="max-width: 43.75em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig232.jpg" alt="Solid weft floats"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 232.</span>—Section of Design for Pattern 2, + <a href="#plate39">Plate <abbr title="Thirty-nine">XXXIX.</abbr></a></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>254. <i>Four Types of Curled Effects.</i>—Curled effects may be +classified under four heads:⁠—</p> + +<p>(1) Those in which the effect is obtained by employing wires +in weaving.</p> + +<p>(2) Those in which the yarn is curled previous to weaving, +and the flushes of weft thread cut after the piece leaves the +loom.</p> + +<p>(3) Curls due to the employment of yarns composed of two or +more classes of materials. The curl in this case is developed in +milling.</p> + +<p>(4) Fabrics in which a curled thread is used in the weft.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp80" id="fig233" style="max-width: 31.25em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig233.jpg" alt="Section of pile fabrics"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 233.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>The first and second classes of curls represent the original +methods of gaining effects of this kind, while the third and +fourth classes represent the modern principles of manufacture. +Examination of the different classes will show that each possesses +some advantages which the other lacks, and also that certain +defects are characteristic of each process of production.</p> + +<p>In the first species of curls—in which colour is introduced +into the warp—are astrakhans, lambskins, and other classes of +similar fabrics.</p> + +<p>255. <i>Curls obtained by Wires.</i>—Curls obtained by the use of +wires are fabrics containing two warps—one of which forms the +foundation, and the other the curled effect of the texture. The +ground warp is usually cotton, the curled warp mohair, and the +weft woollen. The mohair yarn is submitted to a process of +curling or crimping before weaving, so that when the threads are +cut over the wires, in the actual manipulation of the fabric, the +ends thus produced twist, twirl, and roll into all kinds of shapes. +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_358">[Pg 358]</span> +The larger the curl, the thicker and more curly the material +used in its formation, and the deeper the wires inserted into the +cloth during weaving. <a href="#fig233">Fig. 233</a> will illustrate the principle on +which the wires are employed and the part they play in the +development of the curly appearance of such fabrics. In this +sketch, which is a sectional drawing showing the interlacing of +the threads and the position of the wires in a simple astrakhan +prior to cutting, threads <i>A</i> represent the mohair warp, threads +<i>C</i> the ground warp, <i>b</i> the picks or shoots of weft, and <i>W</i> the +wires. It will be observed that there are several picks between +each wire which interlace with threads <i>C</i> to form a texture, +or foundation fabric, on to which a layer of curls, closely +grouped together, is secured. There is a firm woven cloth in +addition to the curled effect in all such structures; and it should +be noticed that the more substantial this concealed portion of +the foundation, the more durable the texture produced. An +insecure ground texture should be prevented in the manufacture +of all fabrics in which wires are employed. The picks +<i>b</i> interweave with threads <i>C</i> on the plain principle, but not +invariably so, as the three-end twill sometimes forms the plan of +intersection for these yarns.</p> + +<p>No less than five ground picks are inserted between each wire +in the fabric sketched, forming a firm foundation for the wires. +Another point secured, by having this number of ground shoots +intervening the wires, is the production of a large curl, because +the wires are not forced into close or absolute contact with each +other.</p> + +<p>256. <i>Process of Weaving Curls produced by Wires.</i>—The +routine of the actual operation of weaving this style of curl may +be briefly stated:—The proper number of ground picks <i>b</i>, +having been interlaced with yarns <i>C</i>, one half of the mohair +warp is elevated and wire 1 inserted; the same number of +ground picks is again introduced into the warp <i>C</i>, and then the +reverse half of the mohair warp raised and wire 2 inserted. This +completes the process as far as the interlacing of the threads is +concerned. One particular that has not been noticed is the mode +of binding the curled warp to the texture; this is effected by +depressing the mohair yarns both previous to, and after the +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_359">[Pg 359]</span> +insertion of the wires, crossing them of course with the picks b. +After some five or six wires have been secured, as shown in the +illustration, cutting takes place. This is done by the weaver +running his knife down the grooved part of the wire, a process +which divides the loops and liberates the threads, when their +curling properties cause them to twist and curl so effectually +together as to entirely cover the surface of the ground fabric +on to which they have thus been fastly woven. The spiral +condition into which the ends twist themselves on being liberated, +is seen in <a href="#fig234">Figs. 234</a> and <a href="#fig235">235</a>, a section of an astrakhan fabric +after cutting.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp80" id="fig234" style="max-width: 25.0em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig234.jpg" alt="Section of fabrics (cut)"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 234.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>A feature in which this class of curls differs from others is +that if two or more shades of yarn, and several depths of +wires are used, one for each colour of curled warp, then, by +a suitable arrangement in the design, an attractive combination +of effects results.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp80" id="fig235" style="max-width: 31.25em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig235.jpg" alt="Long curl effect"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 235.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>257. <i>Curls formed by the Weft in which the Warp is Cotton +Threads.</i>—This class of “curls,” which may be examined in +detail, also includes fabrics of the astrakhan group. But here, +instead of the curl being obtained in the warp, it is obtained +in the weft yarn. In cloths of this order the warp is invariably +cotton, while the weft is woollen and mohair—the wool +being utilized in the construction of the ground of the +texture, and the mohair in the formation of the curly effect.</p> + +<p>The system of forming the curl by the warp offers larger +scope for variety of pattern and texture, than when it is +produced on the weft principle. In this instance, the cloth is +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_360">[Pg 360]</span> +simple in structure. It is possible, however, on this principle +of intertexture, to have either a short or long curl. As in +warp effects, the mohair yarn has to be curled or crimped +prior to weaving by submitting it to a process of boiling, +which may be continued for two or three hours, according +to the quality of the yarn and the permanence with which +it is sought to fix the curl.</p> + +<p>258. <i>The Weave of Weft Curls.</i>—The weave of this type +of fabric is arranged on a simple principle. It first admits +of several mohair or flush picks being introduced into the +warp, which are followed by a plain ground shoot. If the +weave occupies, say twenty-four threads, each flushing pick +might float over seventeen ends, and then form a plain interlacing +with the remaining seven ends of the series. This +process securely fastens the curl picks on to the ground of +the fabric.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp80" id="fig236" style="max-width: 31.25em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig236.jpg" alt="Long curl effect"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 236.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>259. <i>Structure of Weft-Curl Fabrics.</i>—<a href="#fig236">Fig. 236</a> is a section +of the interlacing of the warp and weft yarns in this make of +textile. Here dots <i>a</i> represent the ends of the warp threads; +<i>B</i>, the mohair weft yarns or flushing picks; and <i>c</i>, the plain +ground picks. The fabric is twofold in the weft and single +in the warp. Picks lettered <i>B</i> are placed, in weaving, over +the picks or shoots <i>c</i>, which produce, along with the ends +lettered <i>a</i>, a foundation texture on to which shoots <i>B</i> may +be fastened. The warp threads are thus made to interlace with +both kinds of weft, producing, with the cotton or woollen +weft <i>c</i>, a plain fabric, and, with the mohair picks <i>B</i>, a cloth +in which the face is formed of long flushes of weft yarn.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp59" id="plate39" style="max-width: 34.6875em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/plate39.jpg" alt="Figured Styles"> + <figcaption style="color:blue;"> + <p>Plate <abbr title="Thirty-nine">XXXIX</abbr><br> + <span class="allsmcap">FIGURED STYLES DEVELOPED IN WARP AND WEFT + COLOURINGS</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>Feather trimmings, <a href="#fig237">Fig. 237</a>, are made on this principle, only +several widths, <i>A</i>, <i>B</i>, <i>C</i>, of the curl effect are formed in one width +of the fabric.

The floats in the texture vary in +length, and extend from Series <i>A</i> to Series <i>B</i>, and from <i>B</i> +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_361">[Pg 361]</span> +to <i>C</i> In the illustration, the weft threads floating over such +spaces have been severed and allowed to form the curl effect +of which the trimming consists. Many methods of colouring +are practised in the production of such fabrics, and also, as +seen from the specimen <i>D</i>, special figuring due to the ordinary +type of weaving.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp72" id="fig237" style="max-width: 31.25em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig237.jpg" alt="Feather trimming"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 237.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>260. <i>Operation of Cutting after Weaving.</i>—When the cloth +leaves the loom there is no appearance of a curl effect, its +under surface being nothing but a plain weave, and the +face consisting of long floats of mohair yarn. To produce +the curl these flushes require to be severed or cut, when the +ends thus obtained twist and twirl into the spiral forms +shown in <a href="#fig235">Fig. 235</a>. The cutting process is done as follows:—About +two yards of cloth having been stretched tightly +on a frame, the cutter inserts the fine point of the knife +and guide under one of the row of long flushes formed by +picks <i>B</i>, <a href="#fig236">Fig. 236</a>; the loops or flushes being arranged in rows, +the knife can be made to travel very accurately under each +row of loops to the end of the length of texture spread on +the frame. As it is forced through this tunnel of loops, it +severs the threads, and, as the yarns were curled or crimped +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_362">[Pg 362]</span> +previous to weaving, they immediately assume curly, spiral +conditions.</p> + +<p>By a slight modification of this principle of weaving it is +possible to produce a large variety of patterns. One example +of this class of effects is a pattern with a figured design (see +<i>D</i>, <a href="#fig237">Fig. 237</a>), in which the pine pattern is developed in extra +silk weft in addition to the curl effects. Mohair may be the +material used for the curled figures and silk for the figuring.</p> + +<p>261. <i>Curls developed by Milling.</i>—In the two classes of +these fabrics already described, the curl effect is the result +of preparing the yarn by subjecting it to a crimping process +before using it as warp or weft in the composition of the +cloths. Both types of curls considered are, moreover, submitted +to a cutting operation, which, severing the loops or +flushes of mohair yarns, results in the production of the curled +characteristic of the textures. In the curled cloths produced +in milling, the curl is not due to cutting one series of the +yarns in the fabric, but to the more rapid shrinking of some +threads in the texture than others, a process which develops +loops on the surface of the piece. The curl in this instance +is produced by the doubling of certain threads, and not by +any curling and cutting operations the yarns may be subjected +to either previous to, during, or after weaving.</p> + +<p>262. <i>Points of Dissimilarity in the Various Builds of Curled +Textures.</i>—If a fabric in which the curl is obtained in the +warp and by the use of wires is dissected, it will be observed:—On +removing, in the first place, to withdraw a curl thread +it would be found to be divided into short lengths, each curl +being a separate length. The entire series of curls might be +removed and still a plain woven texture would remain intact; +if, however, either the warp or weft of this foundation structure +were disturbed, the whole fabric would be reduced to a group +of loose ends.</p> + +<p>Let a fabric in which the curl is formed by the weft yarn +and developed by cutting, after the piece leaves the loom, +be next analyzed. Here it is possible to remove the curls, +as in the other fabric, and yet to retain a woven texture. +The wide dissimilarity between this fabric and the warp +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_363">[Pg 363]</span> +curl is to be found in the fact that the various short lengths +of mohair which form the mass of small curls, covering the +texture, are in this case sections of picks of weft and not +threads of warp.</p> + +<p>Curl textures, which obtain the curly appearance in the +milling machine (see <a href="#fig239">Figs. 239</a>, <a href="#fig241">241</a>, + and <a href="#fig243">243</a>), are constructed +on an entirely different principle of manufacture. To remove +any thread or pick from this fabric, curl or otherwise, destroys +the structure of the cloth. In this type of curl there is only +one warp and one weft, the threads of which appear alternately +on both sides of the piece. Either warp or weft may contain +both woollen and mohair yarns, but still the cloths are constructed +from single weaves.</p> + +<p>263. <i>Two kinds of Curls developed by Milling.</i>—Curled +fabrics of this group may be divided into two classes: (1) +those in which the curl yarn is introduced into the warp; and +(2) those in which it is employed in the weft. The warp +thread which forms the curl is in some cases made of the noil +resulting from combing mohair or alpaca, or the waste from +the machines in making lustre worsted yarns. These materials +possess exactly the curling properties that are requisite to +the production of the effect characterizing this kind of curl. +As to the weft thread, it is made chiefly of “extract” and +similar materials.</p> + +<p>264. <i>Spiral Threads used for Warps.</i>—The warp is composed +of twist threads known as “spirals,” a name applied to them +on account of their crimpy form. They derive their principal +characteristic from the system on which they are prepared; thus +one of the two threads utilized in their production is, during +twisting, only slightly tensioned, while the other thread is +highly tensioned. This arrangement causes the compound yarn +resultant to be crimpy or spiral, and to possess an undulated, +wavy appearance. When the piece is subjected to heat, soapy +moisture, and the friction of the milling process, the thick, slack +thread shrinks up into loops, or forms small buttons, or curls, +on the surface of the cloth. The process of fulling these +cloths is interesting. Previous to this operation the fabric +possesses a level surface; for there is little indication in the +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_364">[Pg 364]</span> +cloth when it leaves the loom as to any curly or looped effect. +This is entirely a subsequent development. As soon as the +felting operation commences, this characteristic appears, the +thick and soft threads of the twist yarns forming loops or +curls which cover both sides of the fabric.</p> + +<p>265. <i>Variety of Patterns in Spiral-Warp Curls due to Colour.</i>—Pattern +or design in these goods is mainly due to colour +combinations. As the weave is generally a four-end twill, there +is facility for developing effects of this character with precision +and clearness. Styles of a mixture, stripe, and check class +are employed. One example of a mixture effect is as follows: +Warp, two ends of maroon (spiral) and two ends of green +(spiral); weft, all olive brown. The pattern thus obtained is +intermingled in colouring, the warp threads giving +indefinite and mellow patches of maroon and green, +while the weft forms a solid and continued series +of olive-brown twills.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp27" id="fig238" style="max-width: 19.1875em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig238.jpg" alt="Weft curl weave"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 238.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>266. <i>Twist-Yarn Cotton-Warp Curl.</i>—This is a +backed fabric, the face or right side being formed +of curled twists and the back or under side of +woollen yarn. Diversity of pattern or style is, in +this kind of curl, obtained by employing several +colours or shades of twists. Amongst the twists +which are largely used three or four may be +mentioned, namely, black and white, black and steel +grey, black and olive, and black and medium blue, +the white, steel grey, olive, and medium blue forming the loops +or curls of the respective threads.</p> + +<p>267. <i>Backed Weave for Curled Cloth.</i>—A reference to + <a href="#fig238">Fig. 238</a>, +which is a standard example of the description of crossing +employed in making this sort of curls, shows that in reality this +curled texture is constructed on the backed weave principle, a +system of intertexture which readily allows of the production +of a thick cloth. The picks marked in ⊠’s represent the woollen +yarns, or weft for the ground, and the picks marked in ◻’s form +the weave for the curl effect, or the looped twist weft. On +examining the former series of picks, it will be observed that they +interlace weft cord with the warp threads. The face weave—marked +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_365">[Pg 365]</span> +in dots—is the eight-heald doeskin or sateen, a plan of +crossing which not only permits the curled yarn to be flushed +on the right side of the fabric, but attaches it to the woollen +and cotton ground texture in a uniform and secure manner. +While the curl yarn should not show on the back of the cloth, +the woollen yarn should not be visible on the face.</p> + +<p>Of course it will be understood that the character of the curly +effect is dependent on the kind of twist +weft employed; thus, should the yarn be +of several colours and the loops on its +surface large, a clear, bold curl will result; +but should the loops be more of a knop +than a curl, the pattern will be correspondingly +indistinct.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp61" id="fig239" style="max-width: 18.75em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig239.jpg" alt="Striped curl pattern"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 239.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>268. <i>Essential Characteristics of Cotton-Warp +Curls due to Milling.</i>—The cotton +warp, which constitutes the foundation of +the fabric, possesses no felting power, but the mohair yarn which +forms the weft, though not possessing the same fulling quality +as some classes of wools, yet when floated on the surface of a +cloth of this character, felts to such an extent as to draw, or +compress, the warp ends into closer contact with each other; +and it is this contracting of the texture in the direction of the +weft that produces the curly or looped appearance desired.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp80" id="fig240" style="max-width: 43.75em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig240.jpg" alt="Design for Fig 239"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 240.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>It must not be understood that because the curliness is +entirely developed in fulling, the structure of the weave in no +way affects the pattern obtained, for striped and other effects, +can be woven by a proper modification in the arrangement of +the design. A sketch of a curled stripe made on this principle +is supplied in <a href="#fig239">Fig. 239</a>.</p> + +<p>269. <i>Examples in Designs for Cotton-Warp Curls.</i>—The +<span class="pagenum" id="Page_366">[Pg 366]</span> +weave, <a href="#fig240">Fig. 240</a>, is technically called a plain rib, being so +constructed as to flush the curl yarn on the face of the cloth, +and yet produce a fast, plain woven texture underneath the +floats. All designs for curls of this description are made on the +principle illustrated in this weave, and also <a href="#fig243">Fig. 243</a>, it being of +equal importance to secure a fast fabric as to float the mohair +yarn on the face side of the texture.</p> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp50" id="fig241" style="max-width: 25.0em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig241.jpg" alt="Irregular curl"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 241.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<figure class="figcenter illowp80" id="fig242" style="max-width: 25.0em;"> + <img class="w100" src="images/fig242.jpg" alt="Design for Fig 241"> + <figcaption> + <p><span class="smcap">Fig. 242.</span></p> + </figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>Part <i>A</i> of the design forms the small curly effects drawn in +Section 1 of <a href="#fig239">Fig. 239</a>, while part <i>B</i> +gives the piping of curls represented +in Section 2. When the +odd picks—1, 3, 5, and 7—are +woven into the warp they flush +over the entire series of threads +in <i>A</i>, but form a plain interlacing +with the threads in Section <i>B</i>. On +the other hand, when the even +picks—2, 4, 6, and 8—are introduced +into the warp, they flush +over the threads in part <i>B</i>, but work plain with the threads in <i>A</i>. +The woven result of this weave is, first, a striped pattern is +formed on the upper side of the cloth, consisting of two distinct +bands of curls; second, a firm cloth is produced, though the +weft is flushed to such +an extent on the upper +surface as to conceal the +cotton warp, for the +picks which give the +flushes for the curl in <i>A</i>, +form a plain cloth under the picks which float over the threads +<i>B</i>, while the picks yielding the curly appearance due to Section +<i>B</i> of the design, at the same time form a plain texture underneath +the shoots of weft which pass over threads <i>A</i>. So that +on this principle, facility is afforded for a proper flushing of +the weft yarns on to the upper side of the cloth, yet provision is +made in the weave for the construction of an all but plain fabric +to which the flushes of mohair that form the curl are securely +attached.</p> + +<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_367">[Pg 367]</span> +Generally these textures are piece-dyed, but in such patterns as +those given in <a href="#fig239">Figs. 239</a>, <a href="#fig241">241</a>, + and <a href="#fig243">243</a>, some excellent styles may +be obtained by using two colours of weft yarn, such as black +and maroon, blue and olive, and black and white.
