1 Plush
This is a fabric with a cut pile of silk warp and cotton back. The pile is longer than velvet pile and less densely woven. It is used for rugs, drapery, curtains, and upholstery. Mohair yarn is excellent for the pile of plush because when the pile is cut the fibres are erect and straight. Plush pile is produced in several ways: (1) by the use of wires which when drawn out cut the pile threads; (2) by cutting with knives during finishing; (3) by weaving two cloths face to face and severing the pile in the loom to separate the two cloths. -

9 Double Plush Weaving
The simultaneous weaving face to face of two warp pile fabrics without using wires. Each fabric has its own ground warp, but one series of warp pile threads forms the pile for both cloths. The pile threads are bound in the top and bottom cloths alternately, and after weaving are cut in the middle to form two entirely separate cloths. Usually the pile threads are severed in the loom.Dictionary of the English textile terms > Double Plush Weaving
