There is basically one 'kind' of weaving, but with an unlimited number of woven patterns available in weaving fabric.
A universal needle is a sewing machine needle designed to work with a variety of fabrics, such as woven and knit fabrics. It has a slightly rounded point which helps prevent damage to the fabric while sewing. Universal needles are a popular choice for general sewing projects.
Looms.
they are fabrics, which are not woven. that's about all.
No. The only fabrics that are fire resistant are fabrics that are marked fire resistant. Whether the fabric is woven or a knit has nothing to do with the fire resistance.
There are woven fabrics, and non-woven fabrics. Examples of non-woven would be felt; tapa cloth which is made from beaten bark fibre; and papyrus which is made from beaten leaves. [Q Is paper a fabric?] Woven fabrics are much more common. Ranging from natural materials such as silk, cotton, and wool; through to nylon, polyester and so on.
Less comfortable
If you're referring to temperature and breathability, woven is not necessarily cooler than knit. The breathability depends more on the type of fiber (natural fabrics versus synthetic fabrics), and less on how it is constructed (woven fabrics versus knit fabrics).Fabrics that are "cool" and breathable are:linencotton (especially seersucker)rayonlightweight woolsilkThese are all natural fabrics, and can be either woven or knit. For example, a cotton shirt could be woven (such as a button-down shirt), or knit (such as a t-shirt).And if by "cool" you mean trendy or attractive....well, that's up to you. Both woven and knit come in cool prints and colors. :)
Examples of woven fabrics are muslins, poplin, and taffeta.
