For producing woven fabrics with additional pattern effects, one or more effect threads are supplied substantially in the warp direction and are moved over neighboring warp threads in the weft direction, above a weft thread that is to be inserted, in various motion cycles of a weaving machine. Subsequently the effect threads are positioned below a subsequent weft thread, by submerging the effect threads into upwardly open reed gaps of a reed. To facilitate this, the reed includes first reed blades which, at their upper end, each include a sloping thread guide element projecting in the longitudinal direction of the reed, so as to at least partially extend over the upwardly facing opening of a neighboring reed gap. The reed further includes second reed blades having no such sloping thread guide elements. The guide elements guide the effect threads down into the proper reed gaps.
Reed (4) for a weaving machine with reed blades (5), that are aligned in a row in a longitudinal direction of the reed (4) by combination of their lower ends in a reed band (6) in such a manner that the upper ends of the reed blades (5) form one-sided upwardly open reed gaps (8), characterized in that several groups of reed blades (5) are present, whereby each reed blade (5) of a first group has on its upper end an insertion bevel (7) that faces in the longitudinal direction of the reed (4), and that is configured in such a manner that it at least partially covers the upwardly facing opening of a neighboring reed gap (8), and in that a second group of reed blades (5) which comprise no such insertion bevels (7) is present.
