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 or cloth.

 “WEAVING”

WARP
- Vertical set of yarn
WEFT
- Horizontal set of yarn

4
 THE LOOM
a device that holds the warp threads tight so that the weaver can more easily
manipulate the weft.

Weaving

7
 Basic
Simple PLAIN WEAVE
Weave - The simplest weave requiring a two
harness loom form by yarns at right
angles

9
 Basic
Simple PLAIN WEAVE
Weave BASKET WEAVE RIB WEAVE

10
 Basic
Simple TWILL WEAVE
Weave - Filling yarns pass over two warp yarns
and under a third and repeat the
sequence for the width of the fabric

11

Simple
Weave

12
 Basic
Simple SATIN WEAVE

Weave
- is characterized by three or more fill or
weft yarns floating over one warp yarn,
and four warp yarns floating over a
single weft yarn.

13
Compound/
DOBBY WEAVE
Complex
- Small figured designs (floral or
Weave geometric) woven repeatedly
throughout the fabric, produced by a
combination of two or more basic
weaves, using a dobby attachment on
the loom.
- Weaving pattern controlled by a plastic
tape with punched holes that control
the raising & lowering of warp yarns.
14
Compound/
JACQUARD WEAVE
Complex
- highly intricate large designs using
Weave colored yarns and multi-weaves
produced on a loom with jacquard
attachment. In-corporates all 3 basic
weaves & their combination. Each
warp yarn is controlled separately by
punched cards that are laced together in
a continuous strip.

15
Compound/
DOUBLE CLOTH / WEAVE
Complex
- They are made with 3, 4 or 5 sets of
Weave yarn. Two fabrics are woven together
on the same loom, one above the other
& laced together with an extra set of
warp or weft yarns called binder yarns
(5 sets of yarns)..

16
Compound/
PIQUE
Complex
- Lengthwise wales or cords on the face
Weave of fabric (formed by extra warp yarns)
that are held in place by crosswise weft
floats on the back of the fabric. Extra
warp yarns (stuffer yarns) do not show
on the face of the fabric. They are not
interwoven but laid under the cords to
emphasize the quilted effect.

17
Compound/
PILE FABRICS WEAVE
Complex
- 3-dimensional fabrics, utilizing 3 sets
Weave of yarns, warp & weft to form base
fabric & extra set of warp or weft yarns
to form pile or loop surface. Extra set
of yarns forming the pile may be cut to
produce an erect pile on the face of
fabric – Cut Pile – velvet or left uncut
to form loops on one or both sides of
fabric- Uncut pile – terry.
