Abstract
An endless woven papermaker's fabric of having warp yarns in at least two layers and continuous weft yarns in at least two layers. The warp and weft yarns are interwoven to form a fabric where the first warp yarn layer is adjacent to the second warp layer and the weft yarns define seam loops at two ends of the fabric. Each end of the fabric has at least one warp yarn which is free of interweaving with the weft yarns and is removed to form the seam loops.
