ABSTRACT:
A novel carpet and fabric carpet backing are disclosed which include a guide for orienting the carpet with respect to machine direction. The carpet comprises a face portion and a fabric backing with an exposed surface visible from the back side of the carpet. The fabric carpet backing includes a plurality of linear patterns visible from the exposed surface running generally parallel to each other and generally parallel to the same edge of the carpet and running the length of the carpet. Each of these linear patterns includes at least a first and second linear sub-pattern running the length of the pattern. The first and second sub-patterns are visually distinct from one another and are disposed in the same position relative to the other and relative to the edge of the carpet in each of the linear patterns. As a result, a guide is provided by these linear patterns for orienting the carpet with respect to machine direction and left/right, even if the carpet is cut on a line between any two linear patterns. Preferably, the linear patterns are made by weaving yarns of two different colors into the backing in the machine direction.
