Synopsis

Master the art of textile design with this practical guide to weave, color, and fabric structure.

This book introduces what textile design covers, from pattern development to the weaving processes and coloring of fabrics. It explains how designers view fabrics by weave groups, and shows how the interlacing of warp and weft creates the cloth’s structure. Readers learn to represent fabric construction clearly on paper and to consider loom limitations when turning designs into finished surfaces. The work emphasizes the blend of art, color, and structure across different textile branches, from damasks to carpets.

  • Understand how fabric groups and weave structures shape designs
  • Learn to translate sketches into workable drafts and production plans
  • Explore damask design, binding and harness methods, and color considerations
  • See practical steps for drafting, cutting threads, and combining weaves
Ideal for students, designers, and professionals seeking hands-on textile design guidance.
