ated. B.--A "BAGGING" made from comparatively fine single warp arranged in pairs and then termed "double warp." The weft is thick, and the weave is also plain. T.--A "TARPAULING" made from yarns similar to those in bagging, although there is a much wider range in the thickness of the weft. It is a much finer cloth than the typical bagging, but otherwise the structures are identical. S.--A striped "SACKING" made from comparatively fine warp yarns, usually double as in bagging, but occasionally single, with medium or thick weft interwoven in 3-leaf or 4-leaf twill order. The weaves are shown in Fig. 33. C.--One type of "CARPET" cloth made exclusively from two-ply or two-fold coloured warp yarns, and thick black single weft yarns. The threads and picks are interwoven in two up, two down twill, directed to right and then to left, and thus forming a herring-bone pattern, or arrow-head pattern. P.-An uncut pile fabric known as "BRUSSELLETTE." The figuring warp is composed of dyed and printed yarns mixed to form an indefinite pattern, and works in conjunction with a ground warp and weft. The weave is again plain, although the structure of the fabric is quite different from the other plain cloths illustrated. The cloth is reversible, the two sides being similar structure but differing slightly in colour ornamentation. As already indicated, there are several degrees of fineness or coarseness in all the groups, particularly in the types marked H, B, T and S. The structure or weave in all varieties of any one group is constant and as stated. All the weaves are illustrated in the usual technical manner in Fig. 33, and the relation between the simplest of these weaves and the yarns of the cloth is illustrated in Fig. 34. In Fig. 33, the unit weaves in A, B, C, D, E and F are shown in solid squares, while the repetitions of the units in each case are represented by the dots. [Illustration: FIG. 33 POINT-PAPER DESIGNS SHOWING WEAVERS FOR VARIOUS CLOTHS] [Illustration: FIG. 34 DIAGRAMMATIC VIEWS OF THE STRUCTURE OF PLAIN CLOTH] A is the plain weave, 16 units shown, and used for fabrics H and P, Fig. 32. B is the double warp plain wave, 8 units shown, and shows the method of interlacing the yarns h patterns B and T, Fig. 32. When the warp is made double as indicated in weave _B_, the effect in the cloth can be produced by using the mechanical arrangements employed for weave
