Summary
| Description |
English: Figs. 47 and 48 are intended to show effects obtained by varying the tensions of weft and warp threads in machine lace-making. For instance, if the weft, as threads b, b, b, b in fig. 47, be tight and the warp thread slack, the warp thread a will be twisted upon the weft threads. But if the warp thread a be tight and the weft threads b, b, b, b, be slack, as in fig. 48, then the weft threads will be twisted on the warp thread.
