Patent ID: 7331363

Claim:
A method of weaving a textile weave, comprising the step of: weaving an elastic ribbon with first regions separated, along a length direction of the ribbon, by second regions, the ribbon being elastic in the length direction, the first regions comprising an inelastic fiber, defining an upper layer of rigid loops, spaced apart from a lower layer of an elastic fiber, the second regions comprising elastic textile weavings of the elastic fiber and the inelastic fiber, including the sub-steps of i) setting an inelastic warp, constituting the length of the ribbon, upon a loom, the inelastic warp being the inelastic fiber of the textile weavings and the upper layer of rigid loops; and ii) weaving the inelastic warp with an elastic warp, the elastic warp being the elastic fiber of the textile weavings and the lower layer of elastic fiber separated from the upper layer of rigid loops, including inserting a first weft in the elastic ribbon at the first regions and a second weft at the second regions.
