Description

One of three fundamental fabric weaving patterns: plain, satin, and twill. Satin weave is made by passing filling yarns over 1 warp yarn then under 4-12 warp yarns. The long filling threads, called floats, produce a smooth shiny surface, but are susceptible to snags. Examples of satin weave fabrics are satin, Venetian cloth, and messaline.

See also sateen weave.
