Weaving
A making technique that forms a surface by interlacing warp and weft threads
A making technique that forms a surface by interlacing warp and weft threads.
Weaving a dog image
To show the procedure, the dog becomes the woven image.
Both languages share the English example images. Japanese prompts are the recorded translations.
A phrase to start with
Specifies a making procedure that interlaces warp and weft.
Appearance and effects
A grid or repetition of crossing threads may be visible.
Visual traits
- interlaced threads
- repeated structure
Expected changes
- An interlaced thread structure is more likely to appear
Five examples
1 — Weaving a dog image
To show the procedure, the dog becomes the woven image.
weaving a dog image with warp and weft in progress
- dog image
2 — Weaving a cat image
To show the procedure, the cat becomes the woven image.
weaving a cat image with warp and weft in progress
- cat image
3 — Weaving a figure image
To avoid fixing age while showing the procedure, it becomes a figure image.
weaving a figure image with warp and weft in progress
- figure image
4 — Weaving at a quiet desk
Quietness alone cannot show the procedure, so it is replaced with making in progress.
interlacing warp and weft at a quiet desk
- interlacing warp and weft
5 — Weaving a landscape image
To show the procedure, landscape becomes the woven image.
weaving a landscape image with warp and weft in progress
- landscape image
Meaning and scope
Definition
Weaving is a making procedure that passes weft over and under tensioned warp to form cloth or a surface. It does not determine a particular fiber, pattern, or finished use.
In more detail
It constructs a surface through the crossing of warp and weft. Density, color, and patterns such as stripes or checks are adjusted separately.
Includes
- A procedure that interlaces warp and weft to form a surface
Excludes
- A particular fiber
- pattern
- regional style
- or finished use
What this does not imply
- A particular fiber
- pattern
- regional style
- finished use
- or subject
Variability
Thread thickness, tension, and density change the appearance of the woven surface.
Usage and adjustments
Usage
- Specify it as a making procedure
Distinguish similar expressions
- Specify fiber and pattern separately
Typical uses
- Interlace warp and weft to make a woven surface
Possible failure modes
- Warp-and-weft crossings are unreadable
- Structure becomes overly irregular
