The present invention provides a belt for a textile machine capable of reducing running noise caused during belt running. A canvas core used in the belt is constituted by a woven fabric based on a twill weave texture in which a warp crosses a plurality of wefts and aggregates (19) of weave points at which the warp crosses the wefts are regularly shifted in one longitudinal direction (L) of the belt to form a twill line (17), and some of the aggregates (19) in the twill line (17) are shifted at a predetermined interval in the opposite direction to the one longitudinal direction.
