3 Double Plains
A combination of two plain cloths woven together. The cloths are bound together by changing places. For convenience one cloth may be called the face and the other the back cloth, but both cloths appear both on the back and the face of the double texture. Where the cloths change places are the only binding points, and the interchange of the two cloths forms the pattern. Double plains were formerly much used for vestings and suitings in both cotton and wool. Other constructions include fancy dress materials, and the illustration shows a double plain in which a yellow cloth interchanges with a blue cloth. Both cloths have 30's warp and weft, but the yellow has 88 ends and 88 picks per inch, while the blue has only 44 ends and 44 picks. The reverse side of the fabric is exactly opposite to that illustrated. -
4 Double Leviathan Stitch
An embroidery stitch, consisting of a large cross stitch with long cross stitches filling the holes on each side and also an upright cross stitch over the whole. Another style of double plain used for dress materials has 60 ends and 56 picks per inch, namely, 30 ends and 28 picks per inch in each cloth, but one warp is 62's hard spun Egyptian and the other 2/20's mercerised. The weft for both is 64's. In this make the designs are often simple squares and the like such as can be woven on a dobby loom.Dictionary of the English textile terms > Double Leviathan Stitch

5 Double Warps

The term does not mean two warps are used but simply a single warp of two-fold yarn. -

The simultaneous weaving face to face of two warp pile fabrics without using wires. Each fabric has its own ground warp, but one series of warp pile threads forms the pile for both cloths.

Usually the pile threads are severed in the loom.Dictionary of the English textile terms > Double Plush Weaving

15 Double Scale Harness
This is a harness in which the couplings are attached to the neck cords in pairs. These couplings are provided with mails and the couplings are knotted about 8-in. or 9-in. above the mails. Thin, flat metal staves are inserted through each row of couplings in the knotted loops, and the staves are operated by separate hooks at the sides of the machine. By this means, a pattern of twice the width can be woven. Thus a pattern on 800 ends can be woven by a 400's machine. The cards are cut only for figure, the ground being operated by side hooks and staves.Dictionary of the English textile terms > Double Scale Harness
