Do you find any similarities between silk and wool weaving ? What are they ? |
|
Answer» 1. Both silk and wool weaving is done on power looms as well as on handlooms. 2. Woolen threads are ,stretched from the top of the loom to the bottom. These are called warp threads. 3. The threads that go side to side are weft threads. 4. A shuttle like a big needle takes the weft threads over and under warp threads. 5. One more important part of the loom is the harness. 6. The harness lifts every other warp thread so that the weft threads go over one and under the next. 7. All types of yarn whether cotton or silk or wool etc. are woven in this manner. |
