There are different types of fabric production techniques such as weaving, knitting, braiding, non-weaving (for example, felting) and so on. In this article, we are going to introduce with these fabric production techniques in brief and later we will discuss the knitting technique in details. Weaving: Weaving is a method of textile production in which …
Pierce Geometrical Model | Geometrical modeling of different fabrics is not attributed to a single individual or discovery but rather has evolved over time through the contributions of many textile scientists, mathematicians, and engineers. It is a collective and ongoing effort to understand, analyze, and optimize fabric structures using mathematical and computational tools. Various researchers …
Weaving is a method of textile production in which two distinct sets of yarns or threads are interlaced at right angles to form a fabric. The longitudinal or lengthwise threads are called the warp and the lateral or width-wise threads are the weft or filling. Other methods of forming fabric are knitting, crocheting, felting, and …
Loom is a device used to produce fabrics from interlacing two sets of yarn named warp and weft yarns. The sectional view of a plain loom has been given below to have an idea about loom structure. Material flows in a weaving loom has also been outlined below. Flows of material in a weaving loom: …
The technique, how the two series of threads (warp and weft) are interlaced at right angles to each other is called structure (/woven fabric structure). The structure is the interlacement of warp and weft yarn or interloping of loops. Woven cloth structure depends on the following factors: The nature /type of yarn used. The count …
What is Plain weave? A weave obtained by lifting the even no. warps at one pick & the odd no. of warps in the next pick. And the repeat contains 2 ends & 2 picks. Both sides of the weave are identical (1/1). Write the characteristics of plain weave – Both sides of the weave …
