Weave Plan




The weave plan is the representation of the interlacement of warp and weft yarn in the fabric. It shows how the warp and weft yarns need to be interlaced with each other to produce the design in the fabric.


This is a representation of design of a plain weave

1.      the vertical line (column) represents warp yarn
2.      the horizontal line (row) represent weft yarn
3.      ‘X’ represents warp over weft
4.      Empty box represents weft over warp
5.      # represents starting point
