English translation:material before sizing

Explanation:
"Size" (German: Schlichte) in this case is some means applied to the fabric during manufacturing, and the process is called sizing. (It doesn't refer to how big something is.) Apparently the weight of flax is determined before sizing, as the sizing tends to change the weight of the product.
