The incline of the stitches in false embroidery is in the oppo- site direction. In Plate 67 charming effects are produced l)y alternat- ing the plain weaving and the embroider^-. (Emmons.) The twined false embroidery might be classed technically with three strand twined weaving. (See tigs. 29, 31, and 104.) The warp is in normal position. The weaver selects three strands for weft, two of spruce root and one of brightly colored grass. They all have their places in the weaving, but the third, or decorative element, instead of taking its turn to pass behind the warp, remains on the outside and makes a wrap about the strand that happens to be there. The wrapping may pass, also, over two by skipping every alternate twist of the warp. The Thompson Indians vary the mode of wrapping by pass- ing a strip of corn husk or other soft material entirely around the twining each time, showing the tigure on the inside.
