Method for tucking-in weft thread ends into a loom shed (1.1, 1.2) of a weaving machine, wherein the loom shed (1.1, 1.2) is formed by shedding means by which warp threads are moved vertically, and wherein with the aid of weft thread selection means a first weft thread is selected, which is inserted into the loom shed (1.1, 1.2) by means of weft insertion means and is beat-up against a fabric fell with a weaving reed device (7, 7.1,10), and wherein the beat-up first weft thread is held in a certain position in the area of the fabric selvedge with holding means for the weft thread, wherein after the weft insertion a change of the loom shed (1.1, 1.2)is carried out by the shedding means, and wherein it is further provided that the first weft thread is displaced with the aid of the holding means for the weft thread so that the first weft thread comes into a position in which it is cut with the aid of a weft thread shear, wherein a first weft thread end arises, which is then grasped by a tucking means, by which the first weft thread end is tucked into the loom shed (1.1, 1.2), furthermore a second weft thread is selected with the aid of the weft thread selection means and is inserted into the loom shed (1.1, 1.2) with the weft insertion means, whereupon the second weft thread in common together with the first weft thread end is beat-up against the fabric fell by means of the weaving reed device (7, 7.1, 10), and whereupon the beat-up second weft thread is held in a certain position in the area of the fabric selvedge with the holding means for the weft thread, and wherein after the weft insertion a change of the loom shed (1.1, 1.2) is carried out by the shedding means, and wherein the second weft thread with the aid of the holding means for the weft thread is displaced into a position in which it is cut with the aid of the weft thread shear, so that a second weft thread end arises which is then grasped by the tucking means and tucked into the loom shed (1.1, 1.2), wherein in the normal weaving operation, between the two successive weft insertion processes for the first and second weft thread, the following processes occur: a further weaving reed beat-up (15.1) by the weaving reed device (7, 7.1, 10) takes place, wherein however the weft thread selection means are actuated in such a manner so that no weft thread is inserted and beat-up against the fabric fell, and the holding means for the weft thread are actuated in such a manner so that no thread end of the first inserted weft thread is tucked into the loom shed (1.1, 1.2), and an effect thread extending in the warp direction for forming additional weft effects is displaced in the weft direction in the weaving machine by means of a displacing device. a further weaving reed beat-up (15.1) by the weaving reed device (7, 7.1, 10) takes place, wherein however the weft thread selection means are actuated in such a manner so that no weft thread is inserted and beat-up against the fabric fell, and the holding means for the weft thread are actuated in such a manner so that no thread end of the first inserted weft thread is tucked into the loom shed (1.1, 1.2), and an effect thread extending in the warp direction for forming additional weft effects is displaced in the weft direction in the weaving machine by means of a displacing device.
