Abstract
An arrangement of spaced blade-like members in the form of a cut/fray module is used to make distinctive marks on textile fabrics, especially of woven construction. A sharpened blade-like member penetrates the fabric and cuts yarns while adjacently penetrating dull-edged members cause the severed yarn ends to become disentangled and removed from the fabric structure, resulting in a frayed edge below the incision and "floating" yarns in the region of the incision.
