Abstract
An improved warp knit fabric that can serve as a base fabric for producing full weight, self-lined drapery material as well as sheer drapery material and the process and apparatus therefor. The base fabric is primarily comprised of three groups of yarns knit together to form a sheer fabric that creates the visual effect of being woven. The full weight is formed by incorporating one or more additional groups of yarns into the base fabric. One group is added to produce a self-lining on the rear side of the material while another group can include a 'laid-in' top effect yarn. This top effect yarn can be fed with varying tension control so that a relatively wide variety of effects can be created.
