1 Weighting Cotton Fabric
Weight is added in the process of finishing cotton cloth to make the fabric appear thicker and of better quality than it really is. The chief weighting agents are China clay, Epsom salts, sodium sulphate, barium sulphate, and calcium sulphate. The weighting may be anything up to 100 per cent or more.Dictionary of the English textile terms > Weighting Cotton Fabric

Both warp and weft are woven two right and two reverse twist. There are from 100 to 120 ends and 90 to 110 picks per inch.
