## Abstract

The present invention patent refers to a fabric for embroidering with removable delimitation that aims at simplifying and making the embroiderers' work easier, featuring a delimitation that consists of a yarn or filament in a different color from that of the remaining fabric for embroidering, in order to help in the embroidery's orientation and positioning.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A fabric for embroidery with removable delimitation comprising:
a plurality of warp and weft yarns;
a visually differentiated yarn being made visually different from the other yarns through dyeing with a water-removable coloring material;
wherein the plurality of warp and weft yarns are woven together in a pattern, and after a specific number of warp and weft yarns are interwoven, a visually differentiated yarn is woven in, following the pattern, as at least one of a warp and weft yarns to form the fabric structure; and
wherein the visually differentiated yarn remains in the structure of the fabric after said water-removable coloring material is removed.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

A fabric for embroidery as defined in claim 1, wherein the visually differentiated yarn is woven in to form a grid pattern.

### Claim 3

A fabric for embroidering with removable delimitation comprising:
a plurality of warp and weft yarns;
at least one visually differentiated yarn, said visually differentiated yarn being made visually different from the other yarns through dyeing with a water removable dyeing material;
said plurality of warp and weft yarns including said at least one visually differentiated yarn as at least one of a warp and weft yarns, to define an embroidering grid pattern;
said water removable dyeing material of the visually differentiated yarn being removed by washing the fabric after it has been embroidered without affecting any color used in the embroidering.
