Weaving
From the Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia that anyone can change
This article is about textile work. For the Australian actor, see Hugo Weaving.
Weaving is the interlacing of two sets of threads at right angles to each other to form cloth. Weaving is usually done on a loom.
One set of threads is called the warp. These threads are held taut and in parallel order on the loom by harnesses creating a space called the shed. The weft thread is wound onto bobbins. The bobbins are held in a shuttle, which carries the weft thread through the shed. The warp threads are moved over and under the weft threads
