Classification of Woven Fabrics (Classification Of Woven)

Fine cloth (Lawn)

The muslin in woven fabrics, as the name suggests, is a kind of plain cotton cloth with very fine texture, also known as muslin or fine plain cloth.

Its characteristics are that the cloth body is fine, clean and soft, the texture is light and tight, and the air permeability is good, suitable for summer wear.

In particular, if it is a muslin made of cotton, we can also call it a batiste.

Voile (Voile)

Balinese yarn in woven fabrics, also known as glass yarn, is a thin and transparent fabric woven with plain weave.

Compared with muslin, it looks like fine folds on the surface.

But it is very similar to the type of clothing suitable for fine cloth, and it is mostly used to make summer women's skirts or tops.

Flannel

The flannel in the woven fabric is a soft and suede (cotton) wool fabric woven with carded (cotton) wool yarn.

Now there are also chemical fibers or flannel blended with multiple components. Its front and back appearance is the same and its shape retention is good.

Because of its warm hand feel, it is generally only used as autumn and winter clothing.

Chiffon

The chiffon in the woven fabric is also a light and transparent plain weave fabric.

The structure is loose and not suitable for tight-fitting clothes.

Its common ingredients are silk, polyester or rayon.

Georgette

The georgette in woven fabrics is similar in thickness to chiffon, so some people mistakenly believe that the two are equivalent.

The difference between the two is that the structure of georgette is relatively loose, and the feel is slightly rougher.

And there are a lot of folds, while the surface of chiffon is smoother and less folds.
