Satin Fabric Weaves
Satin is woven from long, continuous fibers and is defined by the filament length, not the fiber type. Originally made from silk pulled from a silkworm’s cocoon, modern satin can also be made from polyester or rayon, which are manufactured into long filaments.
There are several types of satin weaves:
- 4 harness satin weave: The weft thread goes over three warp threads and under one. This weave is more elastic and stretchy than the plain 1/1 weave.
- 5 harness satin weave: Similar to the 4 harness weave, but the weft thread goes over four warp threads and under one.
- 8 harness satin weave: The most flexible satin weave, where the weft thread goes over seven warp threads and under one.
Satin Fabric Characteristics
Satin weaves are more flexible than plain weaves and are known for their shiny finish and elegant drape. Key features of satin include:
- Shiny front. Satin has a glossy, smooth front and a dull back due to its unique weave. It feels soft and luxurious.
- Beautiful drape. The concentrated fibers and flexibility of the fabric create a soft drape, perfect for evening wear and curtains.
- Durable. Made with long filament fibers woven tightly, satin is stronger than many plain weaves.
- Wrinkle-resistant. Satin resists wrinkles better than other fabrics, especially thicker varieties.
