Study Notes

Satin and Sateen Weaves

  • Satin and Sateen weaves are classified based on the prominence of warp or weft floating on the fabric surface.
  • Warp Satin: If the prominence of warp floating is seen on the fabric, then this Satin is called Warp Satin.
    • Regular Warp Satin: Produced with a definite move number throughout the repeat.
    • Irregular Warp Satin: No definite move number to construct the Irregular Satin throughout the repeat.
  • Weft Sateen: If the prominence of weft floating is seen on the fabric surface, then this Sateen is called as Weft Sateen.
    • Regular Weft Sateen: Produced with a definite move number throughout the repeat.
    • Irregular Weft Sateen: No definite move number to construct the Irregular Weft Sateen throughout the repeat.

Filling Weave Repeats

  • To fill the second end, counting of Move No. starts from 1st up (Coloured Box) after down (Blank Box) in the first end within the same repeat.
  • To fill the third end, counting of Move No. starts from 1st up (Coloured Box) after down (Blank Box) in the second end within the same repeat.
  • In the same way, fourth and fifth Ends are filled to complete the repeat.

Examples of Satin and Sateen Weaves

  • 4/1 (5 - End) Satin with Move No. 2 (Fig. 2)
  • 1/4 (5 - End) Sateen with Move No. 2 (Fig. 3)
  • 4/1 (5 - End) Satin with Move No. 3 (Fig. 1)
  • 1/4 (5 - End) Sateen with Move No. 3 (Fig. 4)

Irregular Satin/Sateen Weave

  • If Satin/Sateen Weave having no particular move number is called as Irregular Satin/Sateen Weave.
  • Examples of Irregular Satin/Sateen Weaves:
    • 3/1 (4 - End) Satin
    • 5/1 (6 - End) Satin
    • 1/3 (4 - End) Sateen
    • 1/5 (6 - End) Sateen

Direction of Diagonal Lines of Satin/Sateen Weave

  • These Weaves (Satin/Sateen) can be produced in both 'S' and 'Z' direction.
  • For 4/1 Satin: Move # 3 is used to make S-Satin, and Move # 2 is used to make Z-Satin.
  • For 1/4 Sateen: Move # 3 is used to make Z-Sateen, and Move # 2 is used to make S-Sateen.

Applications of Satin and Sateen Weaves

  • Satin weaves find a wide range of application such as:
    • Denim
    • Interlining Cloth
    • Ribbons
    • Dress materials (lustrous)
