7 Scotch Reed Counts
In this system which is used for cotton and fine linens the counts are based upon the number of splits in 37-in. (the Scotch ell). The count is given in hundreds or hundreds and half-hundreds. Thus a reed with 1,800 splits on 37-in. is termed an eighteen hundred reed and written 1800. If with 1,850 splits it is termed an eighteen-and-a-half hundred and written 1830. This system is also in use in some parts of Ireland, but other districts take 36-in., 38-in. or 40-in. as the basis, instead of 37-in., the 40-in. scale being the most used.Dictionary of the English textile terms > Scotch Reed Counts

8 right and left
1) везде, повсюду; во все стороны; со всех сторон, отовсюду; направо и налево, без разборуI have been borrowing money right and left. (U. Sinclair, ‘The Moneychangers’, ch. XXIII) — Я занимал деньги у кого только мог.
The trusts made enemies right and left... (W. Lippman, ‘Drift and Mastery’, ch. VII) — Тресты везде создавали себе врагов...
As for the big motor firms, they aim to put the entire burden of the crises on the soulders of the workers. They have made hundreds of millions of pounds in profits since the war. Yet at the first sign of difficulties they sack workers right and left. (‘Daily Worker’) — Что касается крупных автомобильных фирм, то они стремятся переложить все бремя кризисов на плечи рабочих. Владельцы этих фирм заработали после войны сотни миллионов фунтов. Тем не менее, как только возникают трудности, рабочих повсеместно увольняют.
2) направо и налево, безрассудно, не считаясь ни с кем и ни с чем, без зазрения совестиI've known you seven year [= years], and you've always seemed sensible till now. And now you're just letting them rob you right and left. (J. London, ‘Burning Daylight’, part I, ch. XI) —...я тебя знал семь лет, и до сего дня ты мне всегда казался человеком разумным. А теперь ты даешь себя грабить всем, кому не лень.
But I found he was robbing us right and left, so I had to turn him out. (W. S. Maugham, ‘Complete Short Stories’, ‘A Man from Glasgow’) — Когда я узнал, что испанец без зазрения совести обкрадывал меня, мне пришлось его выставить.
Police made much of the fact that for the past eighteen months Arlene Duvall had been living a life of leisure, spending money right and left with carefree abandon, money which she certainly had not earned and the possession of which she ‘could not explain.’ (E. S. Gardner, ‘The Case of the Sunbather's Diary’, ch. 2) — Полиция придавала большое значение тому, что за последние полтора года Арлин Дюваль вела праздную жизнь, сорила деньгами направо и налево, хотя сама ничего не заработала и не могла объяснить, откуда у нее эти деньги.
