  1. textile collection samples 51-55 sateen gabardine crepe linen wool flannel

  2. sample 51 sateen fiber content: cotton or blends yarn: weft yarns are softer twist and thicker than warp, may be mercerized fabric construction: weft-face satin weave, usually ¼; cannot be constructed as closely with weft floats as when warp floats are used weights, uses: top or bottom weight, used extensively for linings in apparel and drapes, also for slipcoers, mattress covers and sportswear names: diminutive meaning of satin

  3. sample 52 gabardine fiber content: usually wool or blends of wool with MF fiber, sometimes cotton and blends, rarely silk yarn: usually fine, combed, warp two-ply in high quality fabric construction: warp-face twill weave, usually 2/1 and steep, right-hand for wool sometimes left-hand for cotton; diagonal wale line clearly visible on face only; usually piece dyed weights, uses: usually bottom weight for slacks, skirts, suits, uniforms, dresses, sportswear, coats, hats, especially rainwear names: medieval Spanish gabardina, meaning protection from the elements

  4. sample 53 crepe fiber content: any yarn: spun or filament, low, medium or highest (crepe) twist fabric construction: dobby controlled, short floats scattered over surface of fabric, looking almost random, but with pattern repeat every 16-20 wefts weights, uses: usually top weight, may be bottom; used for dresses, blouses, suits, loungewear, drapes names: French crepe, meaning crimped or frizzed

  5. sample 54 linen fiber content: fabrics of many types of fibers with some or no flax may be called linen-like or linen-look yarn: slub yarns in both warp and weft fabric construction: balanced plain weave usually quite close, character and texture come from yarns; often crease-resistant finish weights, uses: traditionally bottom weight, used for slacks, skirts, suits, dresses, and informal table linens; in much lighter weights, used for blouses, dresses and unconstructed suits names: Latin linum usitatissimum “most useful linum”

  6. sample 55 flannel fiber content: wool, blends, often with cotton yarn: carded or combed fabric construction: if yarn is carded only (woolen spun), fabric will usually be plain woven; if yarn is combed (worsted—finer, more twist) fabric will usually be woven in 2/2 right-hand twill; light but definite nap on both sides weights, uses: bottom weight for slacks, skirts, suits, coats; also made in top weight for sleepwear, loungewear, shirts, and sportswear name: Welsh gwlan, meaning wool—later called flannel
