JACQUARD: Intricate method of weaving invented by Joseph J.J.Jacquard in the years 1801-1804, in which a headmotion at the top of  the loom holds and operates a set of punched cards, according to the motif desired. The perforations in the cards, in connection with the rods and cords, regulate the raising of the stationary warp thread mechanisms.

The higher the thread count (or tc), the softer and more lustrous the fabric, and the more durable and less prone to shrinkage.
