Processing of terry towel

摘要

Terry fabric is basically a cotton backing, with uncut loops on the surface. The best quality terry fabric has loops on both sides and a firmly woven selvedge. As terry cloth is being woven, loops are drawn up above the ground cloth and locked into place by the subsequent one or two picks in the ground cloth. Generally the yarn for the loops will come from a second warp beam which is longer than the ground warp and which are fed at a slack tension. In low grade fabric these loops are easily caught and pulled, but in better quality fabric they are closer and more firmly anchored. Terry fabric may be plain or printed.
