Fabric Construction
  1. WOVEN
    1. Woven fabrics are made up of two sets of inter-woven yarns. The warp travels up and down and the weft travels in and out across the fabric.
      1. Plain Weave
        1. Simplest weave
          1. Weft yarn passes under and over alternate warp yarns
          2. Twill Weave
            1. Fabric is woven so that diagonal ridges appear on the right side
            2. Satin Weave
              1. Weft yarn goes under several warp yarns and over one
                1. There are more yarns lying on the surface so the fabric looks shiny
                2. Properties of Woven Fabric
                  1. Durable
                    1. Strong
                      1. Stable
                        1. Good cover
                          1. Degree of fire resistance
                            1. Degree of wind repellence
                              1. Degree of water repellence
                                1. Firm
                                  1. Will fray
                                    1. Have body
                                      1. Can stretch but only on the bias
                                    2. KNITTED
                                      1. Knitted fabrics have a looped structure and stretch more than woven fabrics. They can be constructed using one or more yarns.
                                        1. Weft Knitting
                                          1. Can be done using machine or by hand
                                            1. Made up of rows of interlocking loops
                                              1. Often knitted in a circle
