Weaving - Indian Laws - General

Weaving As per Encyclopaedia Britannica, Vol. 23, page 342, 1971 Edn. weaving is the process of combining warp and weft components (respectively lengthwise and crosswise) to make a woven structure. The threads that lie lengthwise are called the warp. The other threads, which are combined with the warp and lie widthwise, are called the weft , also known as woof . An individual thread from the warp of indefinite length is called an end; each individual length of weft from one edge to the other is called a pick. Consecutive picks are usually consecutive lengths of one piece of weft yarn that is repeatedly folded back on itself. In all methods of weaving before a length of weft is inserted in the warp, the warp is separated, over a short length extending from the cloth already formed, into two sheets. The process is called shedding. The sequence of primary operations in one weaving cycle is thus shedding, picking and beating in. COMMISSIONER OF SALES TAX, UP.
