Abstract
A papermaker's fabric formed of a woven fabric strip. The fabric strip has a width less than a width of the papermaker's fabric, a main portion that is in the form of a multi-layer weave, and two lateral edges that are in the form of weaves having fewer layers than the main portion. The edges are formed such that when the fabric strip is wound around in a continuous spiral fashion to form a papermaker's fabric, the lateral edges overlap one another forming a spiral seam which has a number of layers equal to that of the main portion.
