Question

Fancy matty is the result of

• A. Warp & Weft Rib weave
• B. Plain weave
• C. Sateen and Weft rib weave
• D. Plain & Satin weave

Hint:

• Matty weave (Basket/Hopsack) Derivative of plain weave where groups of warp and/or weft yarns weave as one unit.
• Example: $2 \times 2$ Matty has pairs of warps interlacing with pairs of wefts in a plain weave order.
• This grouping creates a checkered or basket-like appearance with a textured, somewhat ribbed surface.
• The effect can be seen as a combination of small-scale warp-way and weft-way ribbing due to the floats of grouped yarns.
• "Fancy Matty" implies variations or elaborations of this basic matty structure, often enhancing the textured/ribbed appearance.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

In Textile Engineering and Fibre Science, understanding different types of weaves is crucial. A Fancy matty is a type of fabric, and it is important to analyze the weave pattern to determine how it is constructed.

The options given suggest various weave combinations. The correct answer is Warp & Weft Rib weave. Here's why:

Warp Rib Weave: In a warp rib weave, the texture is achieved by grouping multiple warp threads together, creating a rib effect along the length of the fabric.

Weft Rib Weave: Conversely, a weft rib weave produces a rib texture across the fabric's width by grouping multiple weft threads together.

When both these techniques are combined, they create a distinctive texture known as Fancy Matty, which incorporates the rib effects in both warp and weft directions, offering a unique and patterned texture.

Factor	Warp Rib	Weft Rib
Direction	Lengthwise	Widthwise
Effect	Ridges along warp	Ridges along weft

Conclusively, the correct option attributes to the combined characteristics of warp and weft rib structures, validating the choice of Warp & Weft Rib weave as the basis for creating a Fancy Matty fabric.
