Description
A fabric in which pairs of warp yarns are intertwined in a series of figure eights around the filling yarn. The leno weave pattern keeps the warp fibers in position thus producing a firm fabric with an open mesh. The open pattern has a lacy effect that is often used for curtains. Examples of fabrics with a leno weave are Marquisette and grenadine.
