    [email protected] http://ttusher.orgfree.com Textile manufacturing terminology The manufacture of textiles is one of the oldest of human technologies. In order to make textiles, the first requirement is a source of fibre from which a yarn can be made, primarily by spinning. (Both fibre and fiber are used in this article.) The yarn is processed by knitting or weaving, which turns yarn into cloth. The machine used for weaving is the loom. For decoration, the process of colouring yarn or the finished material is dyeing. For more information of the various steps, see textile manufacturing. A__________________________________________________________________ Absorbency A measure of how much water a fabric can absorb. Acetate Acetate is a synthetic fiber. Acrylic Acrylic fiber is a synthetic polymer fiber that contains at least 85% acrylonitrile. Aida cloth Aida cloth is a coarse open-weave fabric traditionally used for cross-stitch. Alnage Alnage is the official supervision of the shape and quality of manufactured woolen cloth. Alpaca Alpaca is a name given to two distinct things. It is primarily a term applied to the wool of the Peruvian alpaca. It is, however, more broadly applied to a style of fabric originally made from alpaca fiber but now frequently made from a similar type of fiber. Angora Angora refers to the hair of either the Angora goat or the Angora rabbit, or the fabric made from Angora rabbit; see Angora wool. (Fabric made from angora goat is mohair.) Angora wool Angora wool is a generic term for either Mohair if the hair is from an Angora goat or Angora fabric if the hair is from an Angora rabbit.

  • Basic Blackwork Class – HL Anja Snihová Camarni
    Basic Blackwork Class – HL Anja Snihová Camarni I’m including in this handout a couple of different ways of explaining “how-to” in blackwork, because not every explanation works for every person. Also, please excuse the crass commercial plugs. I didn’t have time to completely re-write, so pretend that this somebody else’s. Which it is! Anja and MaryAnne are not the same person. <grin> MaryAnne Bartlett is a 21st century woman, making a living by writing and researching, designing and selling blackwork designs and products. Anja Snihova’ was born in the late 14th century and due to the potions that her alchemist husband makes, survived into the early 17th century! Beginning Blackwork Blackwork is a counted thread technique made popular in England in the 1500's by Catharine of Aragon, the Spanish first wife of King Henry VIII of England. It was immortalized in the incredibly detailed portraits done by the court painter, Hans Holbein, whose name is give to the stitch used, which is just a running stitch that doubles back on itself at the other end of its "journey". Blackwork can be anything from a simple line drawing to the complex pattern of #10 below, and on to designs so complex no one seems to know how to do them! It was usually done with silk thread on a white even-weave linen, and despite the name of the technique, was done in every colour of the rainbow, although black was the most popular colour, followed by red and blue. The most peculiar thing about this technique is that, done properly, the design repeats on both the right and wrong sides of the fabric, making it perfect for collars, cuffs, veils and ribbons where both sides need to look nice!

  • Stitching and Drawing Mathematics
    Stitching and drawing mathematics You can choose either to stitch or to rule/draw the designs. To stitch the designs you will need: • A coaster-sized piece (say 12x12 cm) of hessian or even-weave linen or Aida cloth – any fabric suitable for counted-thread embroidery. (Even cloth with a regular pattern of dots will work.) • Thread in a contrasting colour, of suitable thickness for your fabric • A needle, preferably a tapestry needle (round point) • Scissors To draw the designs you will need: • Graph paper (or dotted grid paper) – the lighter the lines, the better. ½ inch or 1 cm grid. • A pen or a B pencil • A ruler Downloadable grid paper can be found online. Workshop by Katherine Seaton (La Trobe) Hitomezashi sample square (coaster): Sashiko is worked edge-to-edge (not from the centre out), with all stitches in one direction (top-bottom) being worked before all stitches in the perpendicular (left-right) direction. We are working it as a counted thread technique. Preliminaries: Choose how many threads of warp/weft your stitches will be worked over. We suggest stitch length around ¼ inch or between 0.5 and 1 cm. Hitomezashi means “one stitch sashiko”, and sashiko means “little stabs”. The stitches will have the same length on the front and the back of the fabric in this piece. Knot your thread, and use a length that is generous enough that you don’t have to join it too often, but not so long that it tangles. When you need to join it, it is fine to knot it on the reverse of the work to the thread that is coming to an end.

Fibers include those from plants and animals, as well as some that are human-made. Members can learn the various ways to handle each kind. Most techniques in this proj- ect have existed for many years, and their uses have adapted as times have changed. The 4-H Fiber Arts Project gives 4-H youth the opportunity to explore 13 techniques of working with fiber: • Weaving • Embroidery • Basketry • Needlepoint • Spinning • Appliqué • Felting • Patchwork • Macramé and knotting • Quilting • Braiding • Papermaking • Hooking Once members learn basic techniques, there are endless opportunities for them to Contents develop their creativity and design sense.
