Pick, one filling thread; one passage of the shuttle through the shed.
Pile Fabrics can have the pile produced either by the warp or the filling. If the pile has to be produced by the warp, a certain number of warp-threads are raised on certain picks over wires. These elevated threads are interwoven in the pick preceding the interweaving of the wire, and also in the pick following it, with a filling-thread to the ground cloth. After a certain number of wires have been inserted, the first interwoven wire is drawn out of the fabric to be used over, which operation is repeated in rotation with every wire. We find terry and velvet piles. If the pile is produced by the filling, some or all filling-threads must float in certain places to allow the thread to be cut at this place, or its fibres to be raised during the process of finishing the fabric,[53], [118]
