Abstract
A two-ply forming fabric having an upper paper carrying/forming layer which comprises twice as many cross machine direction yarns as the lower, machine-side layer. A system of machine direction yarns interweaves in a selected repeat pattern such that a zigzag effect is produced on the underside of the fabric by the machine direction yarns to provide improved drainage. The higher count of upper layer CMD yarns selectively interwoven in a non-twill pattern with 80%-100% cover of MD yarns provides an improved paper forming/carrying surface.
