- TWILL WEAVE
- Weft goes over 2 warp yarns and under 1 (creates diagonal pattern)
- Stronger and drapes better than plain weave
- Denim

- WEFT-KNITTED
- Yarns run across fabric, interlocking loops with row underneath
- Stretchy, lose shape easily
- Unravels, ladders form

- Jumpers, socks, t-shirts
- Yarns run across fabric, interlocking loops with row underneath
- WARP-KNITTED
- Loops interlock vertically
- Stetchy but keep their shape
- Hard to unravel, less likely to ladder
- Made by expensive machinery
- Tights, fleeces, swimwear
- Loops interlock vertically
- WEFT-KNITTED
- NON-WOVEN FABRICS
- BONDED FABRICS
- 'Webs' of fibres held together by heat, glue, needle-punching or stitching
- Interfacing and disposable cloths
- 'Webs' of fibres held together by heat, glue, needle-punching or stitching
- FELTED FABRICS
- Combining pressure, moisture and heat to interlock a mat of wool fibres
- Carpet underlays and hats
- Combining pressure, moisture and heat to interlock a mat of wool fibres
- Layers of fibres held together by bonding/felting
- Don't fray, can be cut in any direction but don't stretch and not very strong
