<p>[QUOTE="2manybooks, post: 1597993, member: 8267"]I finally found a good example of what is meant by supplemental warp. The base fabric continues underneath, but there are additional threads that are set up on the loom, and incorporated during the weaving process to create the design. Note on this example (as in Bookahtoo's cloth) the design/supplemental threads are heavier than the base fabric threads, and the design is reversed on the front and back of the cloth:</p><p><img src="https://simplelooms.weebly.com/uploads/6/5/7/7/6577726/5421569.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="https://simplelooms.weebly.com/uploads/6/5/7/7/6577726/755620.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><a href="https://simplelooms.weebly.com/supplementary-warp.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://simplelooms.weebly.com/supplementary-warp.html" rel="nofollow">https://simplelooms.weebly.com/supplementary-warp.html</a></p><p>The link explains the process.

[QUOTE="2manybooks, post: 1597993, member: 8267"]I finally found a good example of what is meant by supplemental warp.
