Why cords ????????? Due to the force variations in structure the
plain order
is highly compact structure
and the plain ordered ends are
forced downward
.
Due to this plain ends form the sunken lines between the raise d cords Other region contains plain or twill order with the warp floa ts
which allows the
other ends to move up.
It forms raised cords
