Across
  1. 2. weave: The warp and weft are aligned and form a simple crisscross pattern; each weft thread goes over one warp thread and under the next repeatedly; creates a checkerboard-like appearance.
  2. 3. Knitting performed with a variety of machines in which the yarn zigzags along the length of the fabric.
  3. 4. A device or machine for weaving yarn into fabric.
  4. 9. Fabric grain distortion in woven fabrics when crosswise yarns slant from one selvedge to the other.
  5. 10. A type of warp knit fabric made with a variety of textured yarns and open mesh patterns.
  6. 11. A patterned fabric produced with an attachment to the loom that enables it to produce complicated patterns such as brocade.
  7. 14. Weft threads pass over one warp thread and then under two or more warp threads repeatedly, which creates the diagonal pattern on the surface.
  8. 16. A knit fabric with vertical ribs formed by alternating knit and purl stitches; known for its elasticity.
  9. 17. Weft knit with a very fine weight yarn, has a flatter face side with stitches forming a “V” and a textured reverse side. T-shirts are jersey knit. Panels tend to curve toward the technical back at the sides.
  10. 18. Fabric heavy enough for pants or a skirt.
  11. 20. A blouse or shirt weight fabric.
  12. 22. A heavier weight knit fabric commonly used in sweaters, often with more stretch and texture.
  13. 23. A fiber made from petrochemicals, such as polyester or nylon.
  14. 25. The weft yarn passes under many warp yarns creating long floats that give the characteristic smooth luster and drapeability of satin fabrics. Longer floats increase the drape of the fabric but decrease durability.
  15. 26. The feel of the fabric when it is handled; the properties of a textile that help predict how it will make up into a garment.
Down
  1. 1. Yarn thickness designated by weight and many other factors selected based on different kinds of fibers.
  2. 5. A fiber created by dissolving natural materials and regenerating them through extrusion, such as rayon or lyocell.
  3. 6. Fabric structure with three sets of yarn: warp, weft, and a set of loops on the surface that are sometimes cut. Knit fabrics can also be pile if the pile yarns are looped through the knit structure.
  4. 7. A knitted fabric made to produce a double thickness with each thickness joined by interlocking stitches.
  5. 8. The way a fabric hangs or flows on the body or form.
  6. 12. Knit fabric and sweater loop structure, with the yarns applied horizontally; created by use of affixed bed of latch hook needles.
  7. 13. The ability of a fabric to draw moisture away from the body to the fabric’s outer surface for evaporation.
  8. 15. The vertical columns of stitches in knit fabrics.
  9. 19. A smooth, warp-knit fabric commonly used in lingerie and linings.
  10. 21. The ability of a fiber or fabric to return to its original shape after bending, twisting, or compressing.
  11. 24. The number of stitches per inch in a knitted fabric, indicating fineness.
