  1. SUPPLEMENTARY WARP/WEFT

  2. EXTRA WARP/WEFT Extra warp or weft (supplementary warp/weft) A class of weave in which extra warp of weft threads are used in addition to ground threads. The extra threads are normally used as figuring threads for decorative purposes.

  3. Extra warp. • Start with a motive to be added to a base fabric. • Decide the base fabric sequence. e.g for every extra yarn, a plain weave will be used. ( single or double?) • In extra warp, denting is essential to create uniform spacing. • For example the reed plan is 2 ends/dent for base fabric. When extra end appear, the extra end must be placed beside the plain weave in the same dent.

  4. What should be done to the extra float at the back? • For dense designed fabric, the extra yarn will not be noticeable from the surface, hence the floats may be allowed to remain in the fabric. • In the case of an Organdy fabric, the floating threads are sheared off in finishing. However this may cause the floating threads to be pulled out easily by rubbing or laundry. Hence extra binding points are necessary to secure the floating threads.
