A close up view of warp and weft in a woven fabric.
Warp and weft are terms for the two basic components used in weaving to turn thread or yarn into fabric. The lengthwise or longitudinal warp yarns are held stationary in tension on a frame or loom while the transverse weft is drawn through and inserted over-and-under the warp. A single thread of the weft crossing the warp is called a pick.
Inventions during the 18th century spurred the Industrial Revolution, with the "picking stick" and the "flying shuttle” (patented by John Kay, 1733) speeding up production of fabric (Wiki).

The painting began way back in 2000 in an art school class, working on the theme of crucifixion. I'd been brought up in a catholic tradition where suffering was a big theme. At the time, having had enough suffering for a while, I needed very much to reframe what this meant to me. I began by looking at the symbol of the cross from other traditions... including the construction industry :-) the cross is such a strong shape of connection.
Then I saw some work from artist Ngataiharuru Taepa,
a beautiful painted weaving.. where I found the same connection in the weft and warp.. in the strength and flexibility of two lines intersecting. So this work is also a tribute to Ngataiharuru Taepa's painting, which helped me into my own journey of weaving in paint.

Weaving on an old loom in Bruges at the old fish market (Vismarkt), where the Sunday Craft Market is held. Fascinating a young audience!
Matelassé is a figured fabric made with either three or four sets of yarns. Two of the sets are the regular warp and weft yarns; the other sets are crepe or coarse cotton yarns. They are woven together so that the yarn sets crisscross.

The most well-known Chancay artefacts are the textiles which ranged from embroidered pieces, different types of fabrics decorated with paint. A variety of techniques, colours and themes were used in the making of textiles. They used an array of colours including yellows, browns, scarlet, white, blues and greens.
The type of fabric used include llama wool, cotton, chiffon, and feathers.[2] Their technique involved were decorated open weave, brocade, embroidery, and painting. Brushes were used to paint anthropomorphic, zoomorphic, geometric and other creative designs directly on the canvases.
Happy Macro Monday! This is the base of one of my fabric handbags and the golden bokeh is created by the brass feet at the base and reflected back through a mirror.

Soft silk ♡ - Happy Macro Monday!
It is a great shawl very fine (72" x 26"),
In this close up on 2,5", it seems thick :-)

Lina It's a simple weaving "chain and weft" classic like fabric,
I embroidered just the shawl's outline with hand rolled. I especially like sewing and embroidering :-))
Marguerite-Helene
In the wave-strike over unquiet stones
the brightness bursts and bears the rose
and the ring of water contracts to a cluster
to one drop of azure brine that falls.
O magnolia radiance breaking in spume,
magnetic voyager whose death flowers
and returns, eternal, to being and nothingness:
shattered brine, dazzling leap of the ocean.
Merged, you and I, my love, seal the silence
while the sea destroys its continual forms,
collapses its turrets of wildness and whiteness,
because in the weft of those unseen garments
of headlong water, and perpetual sand,
we bear the sole, relentless tenderness.
Pablo Neruda

Le denim, contraction de « de Nîmes », est une toile de coton à armure de sergé avec un petit motif oblique caractéristique, tissée dans la ville de Nîmes dès 1557.
C'est le tissu utilisé notamment pour la confection des pantalons et des vestes en jeans. Le tissage très serré est fabriqué à partir d'une chaîne teinte en bleu (blu di genova) et d'une trame écrue ou blanche. Les fils de trame sont entrelacés à un angle de 90 degrés avec les fils de chaîne.

Denim, a contraction of “de Nîmes”, is a cotton canvas with a twill weave with a small characteristic oblique pattern, woven in the city of Nîmes from 1557.
It is the fabric used in particular for making denim pants and jackets. The very tight weave is made from a warp dyed blue (blu di genova) and an ecru or white weft. The weft threads are interwoven at a 90 degree angle with the warp threads.

"Macro Mondays"
“Cloth”
In macroing my wife's silk stole for Macro Monday I could not resist a stronger more technical close-up to find out how such a delicate open structure was created. The length-wise warp bands contain about 11 threads. Each thread is made of many finer strands. The wide bands are held apart by only five finer crosswise weft threads that cross over to separate the warps. A nice piece of engineering.
Der Ostsee entgegen - an Bord der Fähre "Copenhagen" in Richtung der dänischen Hauptstadt. Immer wieder beschaulich der Blick auf die Warnow und Warnemünde. Am Passagierkai liegt der Kreuzfahrer "AIDAmar". Das 253 m lange Schiff ist am 01.04.2012 auf der Meyer-Weft Papenburg vom Stapel gelaufen und kann 2686 Passagiere aufnehmen. Aktuell (06.06.2019) liegt die "AIDAmar" im Hafen von Tallinn (Estland).

Hoy el textil está en pleno auge, con muestras en grandes museos y artistas presentes en Bienales y ferias con valores en ascenso. El textil es una técnica que tiene una sólida herencia, pasada de generación en generación, lo que le otorga solidez e identidad. Desde las manos del artesano, se vuelca al mundo del arte y genera vínculos. Mónica es testigo de las grandes cosas que pueden suceder cuando se trabaja en comunidad.

Today, textiles are booming, with exhibitions in major museums and artists present at Biennials and fairs with rising values. Textiles are a technique with a solid heritage, passed down from generation to generation, which gives them strength and identity. From the hands of the artisan, they are poured into the world of art and create links.
Monica is a witness to the great things that can happen when working in a community.
My wife first wore this silk stole on our 25th Anniversary and she bravely volunteered it for Macro Monday's "Cloth" theme. It survived as did I. The delicate yet strong open weave is interesting and is in greater detail below and previous image.

Head anchored to the sky, fixed in time and space, body bobbing deftly on the currents of air, its gaze of death searching for life below, and in the nowhere beyond all horizons, I heard the Weaver on the Loom of Fate pause in its eternal weaving, waiting to see if the threads of two lives would cross, and whose pattern would end and whose pattern would continue...
