Abstract
A picking apparatus of a rapier loom has gripping bodies between a weft selection device and a yarn cutter. The gripping bodies are movable up and down. The gripping bodies selectively grip a plurality of weft yarns in accordance with a color pattern. One yarn cutter cuts the weft yarn gripped by the gripping bodies and severs the cut weft yarn from a woven cloth after the weft yarn is picked. Thus, neither catch cords nor an extra length of fringe nor a selvage cutter are needed.
