While most weaving is weft-faced, warp-faced textiles are created using densely arranged warp threads. Later, artificial or man-made fibres such as nylon or rayon were employed. However, improvements in spinning technology during the Industrial Revolution created cotton yarn of sufficient strength to be used in mechanized weaving. Traditionally wool, linen, alpaca, and silk were used. This requires the yarn used for warp ends, or individual warp threads, to be made of spun and plied fibre. The warp must be strong to be held under high tension during the weaving process, unlike the weft which carries almost no tension. Very simple looms use a spiral warp, in which the warp is made up of a single, very long yarn wound in a spiral pattern around a pair of sticks or beams. The term is also used for a set of yarns established before the interworking of weft yarns by some other method, such as finger manipulation, yielding wrapped or twined structures. It is regarded as the longitudinal set in a finished fabric with two or more sets of elements. The warp is the set of yarns or other things stretched in place on a loom before the weft is introduced during the weaving process. Warp means "that which is thrown away" (Old English wearp, from weorpan, to throw, cf. The word weft derives from the Old English word wefan, to weave. The power loom patented by Edmund Cartwright in 1785 allowed sixty picks per minute. Inventions during the 18th century spurred the Industrial Revolution, with the "picking stick" and the " flying shuttle" ( John Kay, 1733) speeding up the production of cloth. Each individual warp thread in a fabric is called a warp end or end. Terms vary (for instance, in North America, the weft is sometimes referred to as the fill or the filling yarn). A single thread of the weft crossing the warp is called a pick. The lengthwise or longitudinal warp yarns are held stationary in tension on a frame or loom while the transverse weft (sometimes woof) is drawn through and inserted over and under the warp. Warp and weft are the two basic components used in weaving to turn thread or yarn into fabric. The yellow yarn is the pile, the vertical the warp, and the horizontal the weft ![]()
