ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a method for weaving a fabric containing, at least partly, glass-fibres as warp threads and/or weft threads, which are treated in such a way that they enable light to be diffused in a substantially perpendicular direction with respect to the longitudinal axis of the threads. The method includes a weaving of a Jacquard pattern forming a matrix for separating and identifying the feeding ends of a predetermined number of glass fibres, which are to be rearranged in bundles and connected to the same light source. The fabric produced according said method is also disclosed.
