What is weaving?

Weaving is the process of arranging two sets of yarns together to form a fabric. One set of yarns runs lengthwise, while the other set runs crosswise. These yarns are interlaced with each other in a particular pattern to produce cloth.

Weaving is done on machines called looms. Looms may be hand-operated or power-operated. Handlooms are traditionally used by skilled weavers, while power looms use electricity and machines to produce large quantities of fabric quickly.

Weaving is one of the oldest methods of making cloth and is widely used in the textile industry to produce fabrics such as cotton cloth, silk cloth, and woollen fabrics.
