Abstract
A papermakers' fabric, having a repeating pattern of floats on its paper support surface is provided with surface floater yarns interspaced between adjacent yarns to improve sheet support characteristics of the fabric. The floater yarns are characterized by lack of interlacing with yarns transverse thereto. The floater yarns are 'trapped' beneath the surface floats and are of a diameter generally less than the diameter of the adjacent yarns.
