Weaving?
A major method of fabric construction is weaving.  In weaving two sets of yarns are necessary for making the fabric. The vertical sets of yarn is known as warp and the horizontal sets of yarn is known as weft. It is essential to interlace warp and wept to produce the desired design of the fabric during weaving.

Essential weaving operation:
In any type of weaving, four (4) operations are fundamental, they are performed as sequence and constantly repeated.
  1. Shedding: Raising specific warp yarns by means of the harness or heddle frame.
  2. Picking: Inserting weft yarns through the shed.
  3. Beating Up: Pushing weft yarns firmly in place by means of reed
  4. Taking up and letting off: Winding the finished fabric on the cloth beam and releasing more of the warp from the weaver’s beam.
