    TEXTILE DICTONARY A ABNORMAL CRIMP- A relative term for crimp that is either too low or too high in frequency and/or amplitude or that has been put into the fiber with improper angular characteristics. ABRADED YARN- A filament yarn in which filaments have been cut or broken to create hairiness (fibrillation) to simulate the surface character of spun yarns. Abraded yarns are usually plied or twisted with other yarns before use. ABRASION MARK- An area where a fabric has been damaged by friction. ABRASION RESISTANCE- The ability of a fiber or fabric to withstand surface wear and rubbing. ABSORBANCE- The ability of a substance to transform radiant energy into a different form, usually with a resulting rise in temperature. Mathematically, absorbance is the negative logarithm to the base 10 of transmittance. ABSORBENCY- The ability of one material to take up another material. ABSORPTION- The process of gases or liquids being taken up into the pores of a fiber, yarn, or fabric. ACETIC ACID- An organic acid (CH3COOH) widely used in textile applications. It is used in textile wet processing, dyeing and printing, and in the manufacture of cellulose acetate and cellulose triacetate. ACETIC ANHYDRIDE- Anhydrous acetic acid [(CH3CO)2O]. It is used in the acetylation process in the manufacture of cellulose acetate. ACETONE- Dimethyl ketone (CH3COCH3). One of the most powerful organic solvents. Acetone dissolves secondary cellulose acetate and other derivatives of cellulose. It is miscible with water and has a low boiling point (55-56°). ACID-DYEABLE VARIANTS- Polymers modified chemically to make them receptive to acid dyes.

  • No More Having
    Here is your key to adjusting those store-bought tops, dresses, and formal gowns so you can actually wear them! No more having to pass up a beautiful garment because it is too low, strapless, or sleeveless! With these instructions you’ll be able to take a piece of clothing from immodest to modest in half an hour or less. The first solution for a low necked top is to fill it in with either a panel of stretch lace trim or an insert of cotton knit (generally suitable for knits or stretchy lace garments only.) The second option is to adjust the shoulder seams to pull the neckline up higher. I’ve given detailed instructions for this alteration on a couple different styles of tops. With either of these methods you can easily make a neckline three or four inches higher! Method 1 Filling in a V-Neckline with a Panel of Fabric You will need: ¼ yard of 100% cotton knit fabric (interlock or jersey) - preshrunk Thread to match the garment Basic sewing supplies (pins, measuring tape, ruler, etc.) Fabric marker Here we have a v-neck knit top that is way too low to wear. 1. 2. 1. Measure from the lowest part of the neckline to the point you want the neckline to be filled in to. Mark with a pin. 2. Using the pin as your reference point, measure across the width of the neckline, adding at least ¾ of an inch on each side for seam allowance. 3. With these measurements in hand, we can now cut our panel out of the fabric.
