  2. Dobby loom - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dobby_loom

    The advantage of a dobby loom becomes even more pronounced on looms with 12 shafts (4094 possible sheds), 16 shafts (65,534 possible sheds), or more. It reaches its peak on a Jacquard loom in which each thread is individually controlled. Another advantage to a dobby loom is the ability to handle much longer sequences in the pattern.

  3. Shed (weaving) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shed_(weaving)

    The shed is created to make it easy to interlace the weft into the warp and thus create woven fabric. Most types of looms have some sort of device which separates some of the warp threads from the others. This separation is called the shed, and allows for a shuttle carrying the weft thread to move through the shed perpendicular to the warp ...

  4. Tablet weaving - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tablet_weaving

    Tablet weaving is especially freeing, because any pattern can be created by turning individual tablets. This is in contrast to normal looms, in which the complexity of the pattern is limited by the number of shafts available to lift threads, and the threading of the heddles. Tablet weaving can also be used to weave tubes or double weave.

  5. Temple (weaving) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temple_(weaving)

    [4] To use a temple, the length is first adjusted so that it matches the total width (or spread) of warp threads in the reed. The prongs are then inserted into the fabric, on each side, at the very edges of the cloth. The temple must be moved frequently to keep it close to the fell of the fabric, where the weaving is taking place. [2]

  6. Jacquard machine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacquard_machine

    It is the "Jacquard head" that adapts to a great many dobby looms that allow the weaving machine to then create the intricate patterns often seen in Jacquard weaving. Jacquard-driven looms, although relatively common in the textile industry, are not as ubiquitous as dobby looms which are usually faster and much cheaper to operate.

  8. Power loom - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_loom

    [4] At this point the loom has become automatic except for refilling weft pirns. The Cartwight loom weaver could work one loom at 120-130 picks per minute- with a Kenworthy and Bullough's Lancashire Loom, a weaver can run four or more looms working at 220-260 picks per minute- thus giving eight (or more) times more throughput.

    Fingerless gloves being knitted on a plastic 12-peg frame. Spool knitting, loom knitting, corking, French knitting, or tomboy knitting is a form of knitting that uses a spool with a number of nails or pegs around the rim to produce a tube or sheet of fabric.
