Study Notes

Derivatives of Twill Weave

  • Twill weaves have various derivatives, including pointed, herringbone, combined, broken, and elongated twills
  • These are created by modifying the basic twill weave structure

Pointed Twills

  • Created by combining right and left-hand twills on specific numbers of ends
  • Calculating the number of ends and picks:
    • Ends = R + L (where R is right-hand twill ends and L is left-hand twill ends)
    • Picks = # of Threads of Twill Factor
  • Example 1 (3/1 twill, 4 ends right, 4 ends left):
    • Total Ends = 4 + 4 = 8
    • Total Picks = 3 + 1 = 4
    • Minimum threads needed: 8 x 4. Two repeats shown: 16 x 8 threads

Herringbone Twills

  • Similar to pointed twills but the twill direction reverses when the direction changes
  • Calculating the number of ends and picks:
    • Ends = L + R
    • Picks = # of Threads of Twill Factor

Combined Twills

  • Formed by combining two or more twills in a single design
  • Calculating the number of ends and picks:
    • Ends = LCM of the twill factors x # of Twills
    • Picks = LCM of the twill factors

Broken Twills

  • The diagonal line of a twill is deliberately broken creating attractive visual effects

Reversing Method

  • A regular twill is broken by reversing its draft in groups of 2, 3, 4, etc., which is called the Reversing Unit.
  • Calculation for threads and picks required:
    • Ends = LCM of (Twice of Reversing Unit & Threads of Twill)
    • Picks = Threads of Twill

Entering & Skipping Method

  • A broken twill is formed by entering and skipping threads of an ordinary twill
  • Suitable skip number is one less or more than the entering number
  • Calculation for threads and picks required: - Ends = Entering Factor x Threads of Twill - Picks = Threads of Twill

Elongated Twills

  • Elongated twills vary from ordinary twills in that the diagonal line does not run at an angle of 45°
  • The angle is influenced by thread densities (ends per inch and picks per inch) and the twill weave construction
  • The angle can be adjusted by:
    • Varying the thread densities of the fabric
    • Applying specific twill construction methods
    • Combining the above two methods
