Woven-like warp knit fabric with tension control for top effect yarn

摘要

An improved warp knit fabric that can use conventional warp knit base fabric constructions or instead produce novel sheer base fabrics and apply top effect yarns in the warp direction to produce novelty effects using standard yarn ends. Also, full weight, self-lined fabrics can be formed. This top effect yarn can be fed with varying tension control so that a relatively wide variety of effects can be created together with base fabric which is chosen.
