What to Focus On
- Fabric construction is the process of making fabric from fibers or yarns.
- Different construction methods give fabrics different properties.
- Main methods include weaving, knitting, felting, lace, net, braiding, and coated fabrics.
- Films are made from solutions and are waterproof but weak.
- Foams are light and springy but need backing for strength.
- Felt is made by applying heat, moisture, and pressure to fibers.
- Warp yarns run lengthwise; weft yarns run across.
- Loom is the machine used for weaving.
- Selvedge prevents fraying of fabric edges.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
All fabrics are made by weaving yarns together.
Knitting uses two sets of yarns like weaving.
Satin and sateen are the same weave, just different names.
Memory Tips
Five main fabric construction methods: Weaving, Knitting, Lace, Net, Braiding
