This easily navigable resource provides 100 swatches of most recognized and widely used varieties of fabric, including cottons, silks, wools and linens, to encourage consideration of not just the aesthetic appeal of various fabrics but also their structure, feel and weight. Secured in an attractive folder, with descriptions alongside them, the fabrics are in their raw state, before bleaching, dying or finishing, so that their properties can be observed without the distraction of colour or pattern. With information on fibres, basic construction of fabrics, weights, construction and weave comparison, the book will help designers to make informed textile choices based upon an understanding of raw materials together with the processes that make up a fabric. A useful glossary defines key terminology.
