3 Blind Ends
A term used by finishers denoting that a piece of cloth is in two or more parts instead of one. Sometimes grey pieces or lumps instead of being one continuous length, are folded up at the mill in two or more pieces which are " blind " ends. These are not discovered by the finisher until too late to catch them and serious damage may result. -
4 Book-Fold
BOOK-FOLD (American, official)A form and a method of putting up and packing in convenient form, used for the shipping and storing of fabrics of a wide width. This is in contrast to the form and method of rolling fabrics of broad width, either on to paper tubes or on to heavy cardboards like a bolt. The goods may or may not be doubled in the centre to one-half their width, and are thus folded in successive layers of an equal length, usually of 11/4 yard to each layer, until the entire piece is " done (put) up " in folds with the respective mill-ends being lapped inside the first or last fold. Hence the piece is placed on to a white tissue paper which is wider in width than the folds. The tissue is in turn protected by a medium stiff " buff and white " wrapper that tallies in width with the width of the folds. The piece is next put (packed) into book-fold by tucking both ends of the folds in with the respective tissue paper and the buff and white wrapper, while in the width overlapping stubs of tissue paper are tucked under the buff and white wrapper. ———————— A finisher's term to indicate that the cloth has to be in such a way as to open like a book from the centre, with the folds resembling the leaves of a book.
