ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for weaving leno fabric on a loom including a support pivotally mounted on a loom, and carrying a plurality of ground thread blades arranged side by side in a row and spaced apart to define guide spaces therebetween for ground threads. A leno guide blade divides each guide space into first and second guide slots, each leno guide blade having a leno guide eye through which a leno thread is guided, adjacent ground thread blades projecting beyond the terminal end of the leno guide blade located therebetween to define a ground thread cross-over space. The ground thread blades and leno guide blades are arranged such that pivotal movement of the support in a first rotary direction causes the ground threads to move relatively along one of the first or second guide slots towards and into the crossover spaces such that lateral movement of the ground threads relative to respective leno guide blades, from one side to the other thereof, causes closing of one guide slot and opening of the other, whereby pivotal movement of the support in a rotary direction opposite the first rotary direction causes movement of the ground threads relative to the ground thread blades out of the crossover spaces and relatively along the other of the first or second guide slots away from the crossover spaces.
