| Production methods of Textiles
|
| |
Different textiles are produced in different ways. Some of the most common production methods are:
Braiding / Plaiting
- Crochet, usually by hand
- Felt - fibers are matted together to produce a cloth
- Knitting - by hands or by knitting machines
- Knotting, including macrame - used in making nets
- Lace: hand made or machine made
- Pile fabrics - carpets and some rugs: Velvet, velveteen, plush fabrics and similar have a secondary set of yarns which provide a pile
- Weaving- the cloth is prepared on a loom, of which there are a number of types. Some weaving is still done by hand, but the vast majority is mechanised.
