Mommes (mm), traditionally used to measure silk fabrics, the weight in pounds of a piece of fabric if it were sized 45 inches by 100 yards (1.2 m by 90 m). One momme = 4.340 g/m 2; 8 mommes is approximately 1 ounce per square yard or 35 g/m 2.
Weight of color (B) = total weight of warp reqd. - weight of color A; Weight of weft = (0.6 x qty. of fabric (metres) x PPI x reed space) / count; If there are two colors in the weft: Weight of color A (kg) = (0.6 x qty. of fabric (metres) x PPI of color A x reed space) / count of color A
The fabric needs vary greatly depending on the application. Similar types of fabric may not be suitable for all applications. [21]: 18 Fabric weight or GSM is an important parameter while producing different fabrics. A carpet requires a fabric with 1300 GSM, but a robe may be made with 160 GSM.
Spool has a weight of 50 and is composed of 3 plies whose individual weights are not indicated P60/3: This is a spool of polyester thread of weight 60 and is made up of 3 plies Den 75/2: Spool of 75 denier thread made of 2 plies #60/2: This is the spool's Gunze count: the spool has thread of 2 plies of 60 weight thread each
A piece of fabric is then secured over the cup and placed in a controlled environment. Then after period of time the cup is weighed to see how much water has been “pulled” into the cup through the fabric. The weight is then extrapolated to show the number of grams of sweat passing through a square meter fabric in 24 hours.
Yarn weight is a factor; thicker yarns with less loft overall produce larger stitches than thinner yarns (reducing the number of stitches per width and length). Larger knitting needles also produce larger stitches, giving fewer stitches and rows per inch. Changing needle size is the best way to control one's own gauge for a given pattern and yarn.
