surface extra, with the plain weave threaded in groups and the individual warp threads also spaced between these groups an interesting network can be woven.

The space-dyed effect yarn in the warp gives these weaves their special character. The thread-up also allowed for lots of different permutations. The background threads in a finer count were threaded in groups on the first 8 shafts. The individual effect yarn was also threaded in groups  on shaft 9 & 10,twice then 11 & 12  twice, This gave the possibility to have weave floats also of an effect yarn or different colour from the background, increasing the surface interest.

With the same thread up, the surface space-dyed warp threads are dragged left or right by the silver filament rayon weft. It is advisable to work with two beams, one for the basis background threads and one for the effect yarns with a  looser tension.

If using effect yarns in the warp is too difficult then the whole construction could be turned 90˚ like the left hand sample. New threading is required!

This variation gives a more irregular look. The pattern is quite long but only a section of it is shown  in the lifting plan

The blue filament rayon floats give an added dimension, breaking up the strict vertical look of the warp floats.
