Dry crocking:
1.Prepare specimens >= 50 x 130 mm with long dimension oblique to warp & filling or Wales & courses.
2.Place test specimen on base of crockmeter with its long dimension along rubbing direction.
3.Place specimen holder over test specimen.
4.Mount a crockmeter cloth over the finger in which the weave is parallel to rubbing direction.

4.Apply water evenly over crocking square and weigh the wet square.
5.Calculate wet pickup. If needed, adjust the amount of water and using a new square, when 65%pickup is achieved, record the amount water used.
6.Apply the recorded amount of water for other square, repeat this process each day.
7.Proceed step 2.1.1 to 2.1.8
