Ribbed fabric is manufactured with the help of a particular weave that creates ribs or raised lines on the fabric surface. Weaves are the preset patterns according to which the yarns are interlaced while weaving. The most basic weaves are plain, twill, and satin whereas the fancy weaves include pile, Jacquard, dobby, and leno among others. Rib weave is a variation of the plain weave. In rib weave, warp or filling yarns are heavier, as in dimity and bengaline. Rib weave used for making a strong ribbed fabric is characterized by fine, closely spaced, crosswise ribs. It is created with heavier filling yarns and a greater number of warp yarns which is similar to broadcloth fabrics, which have even finer and more closely spaced ribs.
