Where it is used

On the reference shelf

  • Fabric weightWhat the "oz" on a cloth means, what the numbers feel like in the hand, and why a jacket, a jean and a pocket bag do not want the same one.
  • Warp, weft and twillThe two directions in a woven cloth, why denim has a diagonal, and what "broken" and "herringbone" twills change.
  • PocketingThe cloth inside a pocket does more work than the cloth outside it. Why pocket bags are cut from a lighter, tighter, stable cloth.
