In my previous videos, I described fabric terminologies like warp, weft, selvedge, Grain & fiber. In this video, I shall explain the term Yarn. When there is more than one fiber interlocked, it is called yarn. A long continuous strand of interlocked or twisted fibers is yarn. Textile yarn can be made with natural fiber, synthetic or man made fibers.
The essential requirements for fibers to be spun into yarn include a length of at least 5 millimeters, flexibility, cohesiveness, and sufficient strength. Other important properties include elasticity, fineness, uniformity, durability, and luster. The process of making yarn is called spinning. Yarn can be spun by machine or by hand. Yarn used for weaving tends to have a tight twist, smooth surface, and lots of lengthwise strength. Yarn for knitting has a looser twist. All textile yarn is classified according to structure, or how they are made. In general, there are three basic classifications. Let’s look at each of them.
• Staple fiber yarns are made of many short staple fibers that are wound together to make yarn. This is the most basic classification of yarn. Most staple fiber yarns are made of natural materials.
• Ply yarns are made of one or more strands of staple fiber yarns. A single ply yarn is a single strand of staple fibers held together by twisting. Two- and three-ply yarns are made of two or three single yarns twisted together. Multiple-ply yarns are used for fabrics that might require more strength or fabrics that need a desired surface effect.
• Filament yarn is made of one or more continuous strands that run the entire length of the yarn. These are much longer than staple fibers. Silk is the only natural filament yarn. Most filament yarns tend to be made from synthetic materials created by mechanical or chemical processes.

Laurie Pressman, Vice President of the Pantone Color Institute, states that “It’s a reassuring blue, full of calm and confidence. It builds a connection.
As the era of ‘teen years’ is ending Classic Blue is chosen to be the color of the year because it will carry plenty of changes, fears, and hopes as it ushers in a new phase.
Colour of the year rules the world of fashion, interiors and everything else to bind the world together in one emotion – of stability and calmness! The indigo hue brings to mind both the constant and the classic; the sky at dusk, an impeccably tailored suit, serene waters, or above of perfectly ripe blueberries.
We are also offering fashion fabrics at Rs. 49/mtr on our website charu.org.in for a limited period. The Pantone Color Institute has announced that its 2020 Color of the Year is 19-4052 Classic Blue, a deep blue shade that’s at once comforting and relatable.

Warp: The woven fabric is formed by two sets of yarns – one is called as warp and another set is called as weft. Any fabric created on a loom will have a warp and weft thread. Warp threads are the threads that run along the length of the yardage or fabric.
Warp runs parallel to the selvedge (horizontal axis). The lengthwise (longitudinal) or vertical set of yarns in the fabric are called as warp yarns (simply warp)
Weft: The horizontal or transverse set of yarns in the fabric are known as weft yarns (simply Weft). Weft threads run from selvedge to selvedge. Or one can also say that weft threads run perpendicular to the selvedge or the horizontal axis. Nonwoven fabrics such as felt, vinyl, suede, and leather do not have warp and weft threads.
Selvedge: Fabric selvedge is the tightly woven edge that runs along each side of a piece of fabric’s lengthwise grain, which is also called the fabric’s warp. It is a “self-finished” edge of fabric which prevents the fabric from unraveling and fraying.

The jacquard loom gives the weaver a finer tuned control to interlace up to several hundred warp threads, inspiring countless possible designs. The pattern is neither embroidered nor printed but woven directly into the fabric.
The Jacquard loom was invented by a French weaver Joseph-Marie Jacquard in 1804. The original loom was controlled by a chain of punched cards laced together into a continuous sequence, with the rows of holes on each card corresponding to one row of the design.
The attachment resembles the punch card on a piano. If the punch cards with holes which create a pattern sounds a little like an early computer – it is. The Jacquard loom and its punch card pattern system is considered an important point in the history of the computer.
Babbage (the ‘Father of the Computer’)and Lovelace (world’s first computer programmer) were familiar with Jacquards loom, and Babbage intended to use punch cards based on the loom punch cards in his Analytical Engine.
Today jacquard weaves are achieved not with a Jacquard loom, but rather with a Jacquard head which is fitted on to a dobby loom. Today besides the patterning on fabrics, Jacquard looms can also be used to create elaborately patterned knits, like hose, socks and stocking with elaborate patterns woven in, sweaters and a whole lot of other patterned fabrics.
Jacquard is a special loom, or a machine employed in the weaving of a figured fabric. The fabric is woven on a Jacquard loom fitted with a head programmed to raise each warp thread independently of the other threads.
Damasks are woven on Jacquard looms. They are Patterned fabrics with a ground of one weave (usually plain, twill or sateen) and designs in other weaves (particularly satin and twill variants so that the patterned areas have sheen and reflect light. Damasks are always reversible, with the pattern weaves becoming the ground weaves on the reverse (so on a fabric with a plain ground and satin pattern front, the ground would be satin and the pattern plain on the reverse).
There are tone-ontone damasks, with different weaves within the damask creating elaborate floral or geometric patterns, and multicoloured damasks, where the background colours and the pattern colours reverse from front to back.
Brocade: Brocades are fabrics with an elaborate embossed or embroidered surface effect, usually with different ground and pattern weaves. Like Damasks, they are also woven on Jacquard looms. Unlike damask, brocades are not reversible. Continuous brocades have the weft threads left loose and floating on the back.
Some continuous brocades have the back threads cut away, though the short cut ends are still visible. A discontinuous brocade is one where additional yarns are only woven into the patterned areas, resulting in a smoother back. Brocades can be set apart from damasks in a way that the back of brocade will typically have groups of threads that have been trimmed away or left out of the weave and look messier.
Damasks, on the other hand, are different from brocade in that their woven pattern is reversible, with the opposite side presenting itself as a film negative – it has the same pattern, but the colors are opposite as to what they are on the front. So, Damasks are reversible while Brocades are not reversible. This is the biggest difference between the 2 fabrics.

I described fabric terminologies like warp, weft, selvedge, Grain, fiber & Yarn. In this video, I shall explain the term Yarn Count and its measurement according to the Indirect of Fixed weight system.Count or yarn count is a numerical expression which indicates the coarseness or fineness of a yarn.
In other words, yarn count is a number indicating the mass per unit length or the length per unit mass of the yarn. There are mainly two systems or ways of yarn count measurement, these are :(a) Indirect System / Fixed weight system ( length per unit mass )(b) Direct system / Fixed length system( mass per unit length )Indirect system of yarn count measurement:
The indirect system or fixed weight system is the yarn count system where the count of a yarn is calculated by measuring the length of a fixed / definite mass. In this system, the count of yarn is the number of length units in one weight unit.
So, the count number indicates the length per unit mass of the yarn. That is why, higher the count, finer the yarn. In indirect count system, the mass of yarn is fixed and the length of yarn varies according to its fineness. This system is widely used for measuring count of cotton yarns.
The formula to calculate yarn count in indirect system is simple. It is calculated by dividing variable length of the yarn by fixed mass of the yarn. Some of the most commonly used indirect systems include : 1)English cotton count (Ne) system, 2) Metric count (Nm) system, 3) Worsted count (NeK) system,4) Woollen count system.
