Weaving is the interlacing of two or more yarns, using a loom. Generally, woven synthetic fabrics are strong fabrics.

To weave yarns together, the loom is first set up with yarns running lengthwise, from the top to the bottom of the loom. These are called warp yarns. A second yarn is then threaded from side to side, over and underneath warp yarns, to make woven synthetic fabrics. This is called the weft yarn.

                             

During the woven synthetic fabrics of weaving process, the weft yarn is taken over and underneath the warp yarns with a ‘shuttle’. For each row being woven, selected warp yarns are either lifted or lowered, creating a passage for the shuttle to pass through with the weft yarn.

When the shuttle completes passing through the space provided, from one side to the other, the position of the warp yarn is again changed and the weft is brought back through in the return direction. This process is continually repeated until the woven synthetic fabric is produced.

The weft yarn turning and returning to make the next row creates a strong edge on the fabric, called the selvedge. It is the strongest part of the woven synthetic fabrics; it will not fray like a cut edge.

A variety of weave types may be used to create woven synthetic fabrics with different textures and appearances. These weave include plain, twill, basket or hopsack, satin and sateen. The resulting fabrics differ depending on the number of warp yarns the weft yarn goes over at a time, and in what combinations.
