Abstract
A double layer papermaking fabric having twice as many paper side cross machine direction yarns as machine side cross machine direction layer. A system of machine direction yarns is interwoven with both cross machine direction layers, with each machine direction yarn forming first and second knuckles on each side of the fabric. The paper side knuckles are woven with uniform spacing and each machine side cross machine direction yarn is passed under by two machine direction knuckles spaced by at least one intermediate machine direction yarn.
