PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
An Improved Manufacture of Neckties.
I, WILLIAM WILLERINGHAUS, of 13, Hamsell Street, Falcon Square, in the
City of London, Manufacturer, do hereby declare the nature of this invention (a
communication to me by Eugen Vogelsang, of 110 Uerdinger Strasse, Crefeld, in
the German Empire, Manufacturer) to be as follows:-
:-
This invention relates to an improved manufacture of neckties.
In carrying out this invention I make the neckties from a fabric across which is
woven a design formed in sections, each section being of such a width that when
folded it will form the required width of tie. The design or pattern is woven across
the fabric at distances corresponding to the length of tie to be made. The design
or pattern woven is such that when the fabric is cut up into lengths and strips and
the strips are folded the design or pattern will be alike on both sides of each end
of the tie.

I, WILLIAM WILLERINGHAUS, of 13, Hamsell Street, Falcon Square, in the
City of London, Manufacturer, do hereby declare the nature of this invention (a
communication to me by Eugen Vogelsang, of 110, Uerdinger Strasse, Crefeld, in
the German Empire, Manufacturer,) and in what manner the same is to be
performed, to be particularly described and ascertained in and by the following
statement :-
This invention relates to an improved manufacture of neckties.
In carrying out this invention I make the neckties from a fabric across which is
woven a design formed in sections, each section being of such a width that when
folded it will form the required width of tie. The design or pattern is woven across
the fabric at distances apart corresponding to the length of the tie to be made.
The design or pattern woven is such that when the fabric is cut up into lengths and
strips and the strips are folded the design or pattern will be alike on both sides of
each end of the tie.
To enable my invention to be fully understood I will describe the same with
reference to the accompanying drawing, in which:-
Figure 1 is a view of a piece of fabric for making neckties according to my
invention:
Figure 2 is a view of a portion of one strip of the piece of fabric:
Figures 3 and 4 are also views of this portion of fabric at different stages of the
folding to form a necktie therefrom:
Figure 5 is a view of one end of the finished necktie.

page_text: a, a represent the piece of fabric from which the ties are to be made. b, bindicate
the pattern or design woven in sections as shewn, across the fabric, the distance
between successive rows of the design corresponding to the length of the ties. To
form the ties, the fabric is first cut transversely into lengths containing two rows of
design and then longitudinally into strips in the direction of the dotted lines c, c,
Figure 1. The lateral edges of the strips are then turned in as shewn at d, Figures 2,
3 and 4, and the ends of the strip folded along the dotted lines e, e, Figure 2, and
the strip then presents the appearance shewn at Figure 3. It is now folded in the
middle at the line indicated by the dotted line f and the ends are at the same time
folded inwardly along the dotted lines g, g, Figure 3, and as shewn in Figure 4, and,
the turned-in edges being then sewn in the usual manner and a proper lining or
filling introduced, the tie is finished, the pattern being alike on both sides of each
end. Figure 5 represents one end of a finished tie.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of the said inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what I
claim is :-
1. The described improved manufacture of neckties consisting in weaving
across a fabric rows of a design or pattern in sections, the rows being separated
from one another by a distance corresponding to the length of the ties to be made
and then cutting up the fabric into lengths and strips, each strip having at each end
a section of the design, and finally folding the strip to form a tie having the same
design on both sides of each end, substantially as described.
2. As an improved article of manufacture, a necktie having a design or pattern
at the ends, such design or pattern being the same on both sides of each end,
substantially as described.
