  • 9 Dacca Muslin

    Probably the finest and most flimsy fabric that has ever been made. For centuries the cloth was made by the natives of Dacca from local grown cotton, the cotton being spun by hand by women, whose sense of touch was remarkable, and the counts varied from about 450's to 600's. The cloths were usually 36-in. wide, and many of them so fine that they would pass through a finger ring, and 10 yards weighed about three or four ounces. Only one or two weavers are making Dacca muslins today. The cotton used is Photee. The fabrics shipped to India of Lancashire manufacture and known as " Dacca muslins " are perhaps the finest cloths that can be made by machinery, but they by no means equal in fineness to the real article. About 110's to 140's warp and 160's to 200's weft is used.
