![]() Or cords on the face of fabric (formed by extra warp yarns) that are held in place byĬrosswise weft floats on the back of the fabric. Lightweight to heavyweight cotton fabric with a raised woven design. In this weave, the extra yarn is interlaced with theīackground at different places to avoid pulling. Swivel – contains extra filling yarns.Long floats on the back when a cut is called Clipped Spot & when Clipped / unclipped Spot – embroidery-like design is achieved through either extra warp or weft yarn.Eg Brocade, Damask, tapestry, brocatelle, matelasseĮxtra warp or weft yarn introduced in fabric to produce designs at regular intervals.īetween 2 motifs, extra yarn floats across the back of the fabric. ![]() Used for home furnishing, apparel,Įlaborate & decorative fabrics. Each warp yarn is controlled separately by punched cards that are laced Incorporates all 3 basic weaves & theirĬombination. Produced on a loom with jacquard attachment. It uses up to 32 harnesses.Ĭharacteristics: highly intricate large designs using colored yarns and multi-weaves Weaving pattern controlled by a plastic tape with punched holes that control Produced by a combination of two or more basic weaves, using a dobby attachment on Small figured designs (floral or geometrical) woven repeatedly throughout the fabric, 5 harness is required for a satinĬompound/Complex/Novelty Weaves/ Figure/ Decorative weave Luster (long floats), firm, durable (yarns packed closely together), pliable, wrinkle resistant, Exposed yarns reflect light and give the weave its sheen.Įach warp/ filling yarn floats over 4 filling/ warp yarns & interlaces with 5th filling/ warp yarn, with a progression of interlacing by 2 to right or left (warp-faced/ weft faced). Damask, sateen, and crepe satin are satin weaves. Filler yarns pass over a number of warp yarns, four in this illustration, and under the fifth. Reclining twill – with smaller angles, Steep twill – with larger angles.Twill Angles – according to the angles of the diagonal line, Regular twill – 45° °.Herringbone Twill – a series of inverted V’s are formed resembling the backbone of the.Broken Twill – combines right or left-hand twills.Unbalanced Twill – have an uneven warp or filling yarn.Balanced Twill – the same number of warp pass over filling yarns.Left Hand Twill – diagonals run upwards to the left.Right Hand Twill – diagonals run upwards to the right.The direction of the twill on the back of the cloth is opposite to the twill line on the face. Soil resistant, softer & pliable, good wrinkle recovery, durable & wears well. The direction of diagonal may be formed from right to left, from left to right or a combination of both. Herringbone, serge, jersey, foulard, gabardine, worsted cheviot, and drill are twill weaves.Įach warp or weft yarn floats across two or more weft or warp yarns with a progression of interlacing by one to the right or to the left, forming a distinct diagonal line or wale. The next filling yarn repeats the sequence but shifts one warp yarn sideways, creating a diagonal pattern. Filling yarns pass over two warp yarns and under a third, and repeat the sequence for the width of the fabric. Flat duck, hopsacking, Panama are other examples. It is not as firm as plain weave, have more yarn slippage, shrinks easily. Basket Weave fabrics: Basketweave is made by treating two or more yarns as one in either the warp or weft orīoth the directions and interlacing them in plain weave.Eg Bengaline, ottoman, faille, poplin, broadcloth, taffeta. Rib Weave fabrics: Rib effect is produced by using heavy yarns in the filling direction or by more warp thanįilling yarns per inch.Simplest weave requiring a 2 harness loom, formed by yarns at right angles whereby each warp yarn interlaces with each weft yarn Properties: least expensive to produce, reversible unless surface design, wrinkles more, firm & wears well, less absorbent, abrasion resistant, used as background for printing/ embroidery Other plain weaves are broadcloth, muslin, batiste, percale, seersucker, organdy, voile, and tweed. Filling yarns pass over and under alternate warp yarns. Plain Weave Plain weave, also called taffeta.The timestamp is only as accurate as the clock in the camera, and it may be completely wrong.
