==Herringbone (& Chevron)==
The herringbone or and chevron weaves are two further variations of a broken or reversed 2/2 or 2/1 twill. In a chevron weave the pattern gorms forms a perfect point, in a herringbone weave the point is offset (see immages). Because this difference is so slight, and not always distinguished between in the literature, they are both included in the following list. Again the majority of these are of 2/2 twill, so only when specifically reported as 2/1 twill is it listed as such here.

* Hedeby - Settlement: 1 fragment of woollen fabric in herringbone weave was found. It was probably from a leg wrap. [HAGG 1991:p.97]
* Hedeby - Graves: 2 examples of woollen herringbone weave were found in the graves 90/1909 and VI/1930. The fragment 1 example in grave VI/1930 was of large herringbone chevron weave and had a checker pattern in it created by lighter threads (possibly linen) in both the warp and the weft. [HAGG 1991:p.241]
*Hedeby - Harbour: 4 examples of herringbone weave were found in the harbour. 2 were woven as bands (probably leg bindings) [HAGG 1984:p.145]
