10 Swivel Spots
Extra weft figuring in the form of spots or other figures produced upon a ground cloth while it is weaving. The swivel figures are woven from separate small shuttles and usually consist of weft floats with the minimum number of binding points, but quite firmly bound at the two extreme edges of the figure. No material is wasted in useless floats between the isolated figures. The swivel weft is frequently silk and many of the cloths are expensive. -
