  • 1 Honeycomb

    This is the name of a weave (see Honeycomb Weave). The term is also used to describe towels woven with a honeycomb weave, and for dress goods. Fig. T shows a 12 X 10 honeycomb used for linen towels, woven with a 1,000 reed, 101/2 shots (37-in. glass), 22's linen warp and weft. A typical worsted dress cloth is woven 72 end and 48 picks per inch, 2/36's worsted warp and weft. Honeycomb Quilts are usually made about 28 end and 34 picks per inch, 2/12's warp and 2's to 6's weft, all cotton (see also Brighton and Grecian).

  • 2 Honeycomb Weave

    This is a weave obtained by causing both warp ends and picks of weft to float in diamond shape to form ridges along the lines of the longest floats. A course of plain weave all round the floating warp and weft diamond shapes induces the formation of hollows. The weave is largely used in Bolton for quilts, toilet covers, etc. and in Heywood for towels. The Brighton and Grecian weaves are adaptations of the honeycomb principle. Honeycomb weaves may be arranged as in design W., where the weft diamond is larger than the warp diamond, or as in design E., where the weft diamond is the same size as the warp diamond
