Study Notes
Derivatives of Plain Weave
- Plain weave is the basis for many other weave designs.
- Common derivatives include warp rib, weft rib, and matt weave.
Warp Ribs
- Warp ribs are created by extending the plain weave in the warp direction.
- This results in horizontal stripes in the fabric.
- A factor of 2 is used to form 2x2 warp ribs from plain weave.
- They're always formed on two ends.
- Types of warp ribs include regular and irregular warp ribs.
- Regular warp ribs have consistent width stripes.
- Irregular warp ribs have varying stripe widths.
- The weft threads lay beneath the warp threads in the warp rib structures.
- This creates a horizontal striped effect.
- The number of warp threads over a group of weft threads determines the stripe width.
Prominence of Warp Ribs
- To make the horizontal stripes more pronounced, increase warp thread density compared to weft thread density.
- Using alternate tight and slack ends of warp threads.
- Using alternate fine and coarse threads for warp ends will also enhance the effect.
- Matching fine and coarse picks of the threads.
Weft Ribs
- Weft ribs are created by extending the plain weave in the weft direction.
- This produces verticle stripes in the fabric.
- A factor of 2 is used to form 2x2 weft ribs from plain weave.
- They will always be formed on two picks.
- There are regular and irregular weft ribs.
- Regular weft ribs display consistent width verticle stripes.
- Irregular, conversely, have varying stripe widths.
- The warp threads are laid beneath the weft threads in the weft rib structures.
- The weft threads forming over a group of warp threads determine the stripe width.
Prominence of Weft Ribs
- To enhance the vertical stripes the weft density should be much greater than warp density.
- Using alternate fine and coarse picks will also improve the effect
- The use of fine and coarse ends for the weft threads will also improve the effect.
Matt Weaves
- Matt weave is formed when both the warp and weft direction are extended from a plain weave design.
- The same factor of 2 will form 2x2 matt weave using the plain weave as a base.
- Matt is also called hopsack or basket weave.
- Types of Matt weaves include regular and irregular matt weaves.
- Regular matt weaves have consistent stripe widths in both directions.
- Irregular matt weaves have varying stripe weights in both directions.
