The black marks are the millimeter marks on a metal edge ruler.
Taken under a microscope. Photographed on a black background unless otherwise noted.
This is the edge of a metal ruler, taken with the same magnification as the fabric photos on this page. The distance from the left edge of one black mark to the left edge of the next black mark is 1mm. We can use this to estimate threads per inch and sizes of gaps between the threads.
