   • Plain; Formed by interlacing yams one over, one under in regular sequence; Simple basicweave that wears evenly.
   • Twill; Formed by "floating" one warp thread overtwo or three weft threads, then under one. This creates a diagonal wale; Produces a firm, strong fabric with a visible diagonal line.
   • Satin; Formed by :floating one warp thread over four or more weft yarns then uner one thread. The order of interlacing is staggered so the result is a smooth face with no wales; The floats gives satin fabric its sheen.
   • Jacquard; An intricate, variegated weave made by lifting any number of warp threads and any number of weft threads to create a woven pattern in the fabric;The weaves are created on a Jacquard loom. Creates brocades, tapestries, and damask. Used for daraperies and upholstery.
