Grammar of textile design
A 1919 London and New York textile design manual by Harry Nisbet, published by Scott, Greenwood and Son with D. Van Nostrand, aimed at weavers and designers working in cloth construction. Its pictures are squared-paper weave diagrams: a 12-by-12 draft grid with numbered edges, dense checkerboard interlacings in black and white, a long narrow repeat strip, and a basketweave-style block with a sample border. A designer could take from them the logic of how interlacing patterns repeat and how drafts are plotted on graph paper.
