Collapsible Fabrics
Three dimensional fabrics are so much fun to weave. You make all these little flat pieces of fabric and then get to jump for joy as they transform
in the fulling process. There are several ways to make a fabric collapse or become more 3 dimensional. The 3 methods we will explore are:
a. using a specific weave structure enhanced with specific yarns
b. using elasticized yarns in either the warp, weft or both
c. using yarns that shrink differently
The samples will be woven in Plain Weave, Twill, Cannelle, Deflected Doubleweave, Just plain old Doubleweave and we will have some fun with Supplmentary warps.
