Abstract
A pile fabric such as a woven terry pile fabric having diagonal grooves of cut pile formed therein on at least one face of the fabric and extending generally widthwise of the fabric with the cut pile within the grooves being of variable height imparting a sculptured pattern appearance to the fabric. Woven terry towels made in accordance with the invention may have one side of the towel sheared to form a cut pile face with or without the diagonal grooves of cut pile present therein. The other side of the towel may be loop terry pile with or without diagonal grooves of cut pile formed therein. Further variations may include jacquard patterns formed in the pile fabric with the diagonal grooves of cut pile intersecting or extending across the jacquard pattern to impart a sculptured pattern appearance superimposed on the jacquard pattern. Still further variations may include segmental grooves and intersecting grooves to present unusual pattern effects.
