The plain weave is the most simple and commonly used. In this type of weave, the warp and filling yarns cross alternately.
A basic weave characterized by a diagonal rib, or twill line. each warp floats over at least two consecutive picks.
A leno weave is a locking type weave in which two or more warp yarns cross over each other and interlace with one or more filling yarns. It is used primarily to prevent shifting of yarns in open fabrics.
A mock leno weave is exactly what the name implies. It is an open type weave that resembles a leno and is accomplished by a system of interlacing that draws a group of yarns together and leaves a space between the groups. The warp yarns do not actually cross each other as in a true leno and, therefore, no special attachments are required for the loom.
This construction has one warp end weaving over three or more and under one filling pick.
In this weave, two or more warp yarns cross alternately with two or more filling yarns.
