Woven textiles are fabrics created by interlacing threads or yarns together on a loom. This process involves two main types of threads: the warp, which runs lengthwise, and the weft, which runs crosswise. By varying the materials, patterns, and techniques used in weaving, a wide range of textures, colors, and designs can be produced. Common types of woven textiles include denim, silk, and canvas. Woven fabrics are widely used in clothing, upholstery, and various household items, combining both functionality and aesthetic appeal in everyday life.
