why should you wash (scour) a fabric before dyeing it?
fabric comes with coating from the manufacturer. It needs to be removed to allow dye to fully penetrate

A weft yarn crossing over 2 or more warp yarns
float
Is characterized by a diagonal rib caused by stepping a float one yarn further over with each weft thread as they descend the warp. Often used to make pants or suits.
twill weave
Produces shiny fabrics because it uses filament yarns and long floats (4-11 threads)
satin weave
the simplest weave structure, an even alternation of warp and weft yarns
plain weave
made from 3 sets of yarns. vertical and horizontal plain weave ground plus loops at 90 degrees to the ground forming a fuzzy or "napped" surface as in velvet and corduroy
pile weave
made on a special loom that can make very complex woven designs, often florals
jacquard

How is a "miss" stitch in knitting like a "float" in weaving?
Miss stitch- the stitch "floats" over and "misses" (does not pass through). Used to create patterns
Explain how a Raschel machine is to knitting what a Jacquard loom is to weaving
Raschel is a knit that has a pattern knit into . it- like flowers, etc. Jacquard looms knit intricate pattern into the fabric. More intricate.
Knitting in a vertical direction requiring a separate yarn for each vertical row, will not ravel or run, tricot, raschel, and stretch knits are examples
warp
Jersey, rib knit, and purl knit are the most common examples, the type of knitting you would do if you knit your sweetheart a sweater on 2 knitting needles with one ball of yarn
weft

its elasticity. when you stretch it and then release- how well does it hold its shape
