The first involves dissection, which is suitable for all woven structures, including complicated structures where individual threads are not readily distinguishable. The second involves a traversing thread counter which is suitable for all woven fabrics in which the threads or pattern repeats are distinguishable. The third involves a counting glass which is suitable for fabrics with 25 or more threads per centimetre, where the threads or pattern repeats are distinguishable.
