FABRIC CONSTRUCTION Yarns: natural or manufactured fibers that are twisted together and woven into fabric. May be dyed as individual yarns or as one whole piece fabric at a later time.

Yarns: 2 or more sets of threads are interlaced at right angles WARP: set of threads that run lengthwise WEFT: set of threads that run crosswise

YARNS Grain: the direction threads run in a woven fabric Nap:a layer of fiber ends that stand up from the surface of the fabric Blend:yarn that is made from 2 or more types of fibers ex: natural & manufactured. Produces a better quality product. Cotton/poly blend in drapes, bedding, etc.

Types of Weaves Plain: simplest pattern that is as strong one direction as it is in the other The weft yarn goes over and under each warp yarn

Types of Weaves Satin: has long floats (portions of yarn) on the surface of the fabric. Either the warp yarns or the weft yarns float over 4 or more opposite yarns, then go under one. This is a smooth and slippery weave. Good for lining of drapery.

Types of Weaves Twill: the warp or the weft passes over 2 or more yarns. Can be both even and uneven. This type of weave is stronger than a plain weave but tends to show soil less quickly.

Types of Weaves Jacquard: Used for damask, tapestry, and brocades. Used in very formal type of interiors, living rooms, dining rooms, pillows Leno: used for curtains and thermal blankets

Types of Weaves Non-Wovens: made by joining fibers together by heat, moisture, chemicals, friction, and pressure. EX: vinyl and other plastic materials
