Lazy Line
A lazy line or section line is a technical feature of weaving which describes visible diagonal joins within a woven textile. It results from interlacing Warp and weft, wefts joining adjacent warp sections woven at different times. Successive rows of turnarounds of discontinuous wefts create a diagonal line which, in pile rugs, is best seen from the back side, and from the front side only if the pile is heavily worn. A lazy line is created when the weaver does not finish a rug line by line from one side to the other, but sequentially finishes one area after the other. Section lines are frequently observed in antique Oriental carpets, especially in Turkish rug, Anatolian rugs of village or rural production, as well as in traditional Navajo weaving. Technical details A smaller rug can be woven continuously by fitting in one line of pile knots around the longitudinal warp threads, followed by the introduction of one or more threads of the weft (or filling yarn) which then span the e ...
