woven textiles
Woven textiles are fabrics created by interlacing threads or yarns together using a loom. This process involves two main types of threads: the warp, which runs lengthwise, and the weft, which runs crosswise. The combination of these threads creates various patterns and textures, resulting in a wide range of fabrics used for clothing, upholstery, and other applications.
Different weaving techniques, such as plain weave, twill, and satin, produce distinct characteristics in the final textile. Woven textiles can be made from natural fibers like cotton, wool, and silk, or synthetic fibers such as polyester and nylon. Each type of fiber contributes to the fabric's durability, appearance, and feel.
