1 American Twill
AMERICAN TWILL, wrongly called "Shalloon".The name given to the ordinary twill weave 2/2 by the American traders. "Shalloon" applied to this twill is not correct, since a shalloon is a very good quality woollen cloth (see Shalloon), whereas American twills are cotton fabrics. The American cloth varies in weight, such as 38-in., 64 X 60, 36/24, 2 X 2 twill. 36-in., 68 X 66, 40/32, 2 X 2 twill. -
2 American Cotton
There are over 60 varietal names mentioned in census reports of American cotton, but only a few of these are srill in common cultivation, and which have stood the test of time. These are Boyd prolific, Dickson, Herlong, Peeler, Petit Gulf and Texas Stormproof. The staple length varies from about 24 to 29 mm. and yield of lint from less than 30 to over 35 per cent. It has been found, as a rule, that as the per cent of lint increases the length of staple decreases, The qualities most used of American cotton, apart from above varieties, are known as Orleans, Texas, Allanseed, Mobile, Boweds, Benders, Memphis, Uplands, Alabama and Tennessee (see under each name) -

4 American Sheetings
An enormous trade is done by the American manufacturers in plain cloths termed "Sheetings", such as 34/5 fin., 80 yards, 64 X 64, 16/26, 29/30-lb. There is little variation in quality. They are used for sheets when bleached, but also for window blinds, bags, shirts, dress goods, draperies, when dyed or printed. The weave is plain so the cloth is not a true sheeting. The cloth described as "Americans" is also known under this style, but it is not correct, as a sheeting is a twill cloth and very much wider. The term "Cabot" is also given to the cloth (see Cabot)Dictionary of the English textile terms > American Sheetings
