Yarn & Fiber Properties

  1. Fiber Type: Wool, cotton, linen, silk, synthetic, blend, etc.

  2. Fiber Content %: For blends, the percentage of each fiber (e.g., 80% wool, 20% silk).

  3. Yarn Weight / Count: Lace, fingering, sport, DK, worsted, bulky, or a technical measurement like NM or Tex.

  4. Yarn Structure: Singles, plied (2-ply, 4-ply), cabled, etc.

  5. Twist Direction: S-twist or Z-twist (often relevant for specialized weaving).

  6. Color / Color Code: Name, code, or Pantone reference.

  7. Manufacturer / Brand: Mill or company name.

  8. Yarn Name: Specific product name.

  9. Yardage (or Meterage) per Unit: Important for calculating warp/ weft requirements (e.g., 200 yards/50 g).

  10. Recommended EPI (Ends per Inch): Helps with planning a balanced weave.

  11. Price / Cost: Per skein, cone, or per yard. [user editable]

  12. Care Instructions: Washing, drying, ironing details.

  13. Manufacturer: Or if handmade or where you purchased or typically purchase the yarn.

  14. Site link: Optional

  15. Notes: Subjective notes like softness, sheen, halo, or any special weaving considerations.

  16. others?

  • Support for variegated yarns with ability to create your own and save in MyYarn catalog.

  • Support for variegated yarns with ability render in Cloth.

  • Support for yarn sizes and yards per pound to generate not only yardage requirements, but ounces or grams by color.

  • Identify skipped or duplicated threads in warp or weft and warn for excessively large numbers of warp or weft threads

  • Sectional Warping Calculations & Printout for color sequences.

  • Support for Weft Faced visual design tools for Krokbragd and other Bound-weaves.

  • Support for Warp Faced visual design tools for Rep Weave

  • Support for marking pickup patterns definition.

  • Name Drafting (Code drafting)

  • Provide support for applying a gradient against a selected color pallet.

  • Ability to create denting plan that can be used for cram and dent, skipped dents and thick and then fabrics. The denting plan will also calculate an average ends per inch.

  • Visualization for integrated double weave in cloth view and cloth sim

  • AVL Dobby Drivers

  • Tromp as Writ - Adjusted for Overshot

  • Ability to select marked sections from one WIF into another. (Completed)

  • Section Assembly - Many drafts have nested repeats, and it would be useful to be able to combine groups in section assembly and have them repeat. This will likely require adding an additional level of repeats. (Completed Jan 2026)

  • Section Assembly - Also the ability to copy and paste groups with its contents. (Completed Jam 2026)

  • Extended support for Overshot in Block Substitution (Completed Jan 2026)

  • Support for weft faced and warp faced fabric visualization. (Completed Dec 2025)

  • Repeat Analysis Completed v1 (Completed Sept 2025)

  • Cut and Paste picture into a tie-up. (Completed Sept 2025)

  • Cut and Paste picture into a lift plan. (Completed Sept 2025)

  • Saving Zoom Levels - possible default for the application, also by file; also save zoom level for Dobby. partially completed

  • Improved Print options (treadling, threading)

  • Remove tabby - permanently and also for visualization only. Completed

  • Treadle Reducer (similar logic to Tim's Treadle Reducer). Completed - September 2025
