ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A method is disclosed for weaving utilizing a plurality of warp threads and weft threads. The warp sheds are formed and retained in the warp threads and are moved in the longitudinal direction of the warp threads toward the fell of the woven product. The method includes the step of continuously inserting a weft thread into each of the moving warp sheds by drawing the weft thread from stationary weft supply packages located outside of the moving warp sheds. Preferably, the step of con- tinuously inserting a weft thread into each of the moving warp sheds is performed by weft insertion means and further including the steps of inserting the weft thread for the entire interval of time that the weft insertion means are within the moving warp sheds, and supplying the weft insertion means with weft thread from the stationary weft supply packages located outside of the moving warp sheds. Apparatus is also disclosed for weaving, utilizing a plurality of warp threads and weft threads, com- prising warp shed forming and retaining means for forming and retaining warp sheds in the warp threads, means for moving the warp sheds in the longitudinal direction of the warp threads toward the fell of the woven product, means for continuously inserting a weft thread into each of the moving warp sheds by drawing the weft thread from stationary weft supply packages located outside of the moving warp sheds. Thus, an improved weft supply and insertion system for warp-wave weaving is provided which utilizes a weft-laying shuttle which is smaller and faster than prior art weft insertion members employed in warp-wave weaving systems in order to provide increased production and to reduce the strain on warp threads by providing smaller shed openings.
