Plain Weave
In addition to the weaving pattern laid out in the lift plan, you can always switch to a
plain weave. This is useful when weaving a starting piece and at intersections in the
weaving project. The shaft combination for weaving a plain weave is set. You can
save definitions of the plain weave on the Dobby drive, so you can use them more
often.
If you have a pattern with pattern picks always alternating with a plain weave pick,
you can define it better in the pattern part.
