All data bases will be updated from time-to-time in the future. If you find any post on this blog site useful, you can save it or copy and paste it into your own "Word" document etc. for your future reference. For example, Safari allows you to save a post (e.g. click on "File", click on "Print" and release, click on "PDF" and then click on "Save As" and release - and a PDF should appear where you have stored it). Safari also allows you to mail a post to a friend (click on "File", and then point cursor to "Mail Contents On This Page" and release). Either way, this or other posts on this site may be a useful Art Resource for you. The Art Resource series will be the first post in each calendar month. Remember - these Art Resource posts span information that will be useful for a home hobbyist to that required by a final year University Fine-Art student and so undoubtedly, some parts of any Art Resource post may appear far too technical for your needs (skip over those mind boggling parts) and in other parts, it may be too simplistic with respect to your level of knowledge (ditto the skip). The trade-off between these two extremes will mean that Art Resource posts will hopefully be useful in parts to most, but unfortunately may not be satisfying to all! Introduction Yarns are classified by size, twist, number of parts and by appearance. We shall deal with each classification in today’s post. Classification by Size The size, number or count of spun yarns and of filament yarns is determined by different systems. Spun yarn is expressed in terms of length per unit weight. It differs according to the fiber. In the cotton system, for instance, the count is based on the number of hanks (a hank is 840 yards) in one pound of yarn. Weaving yarns and sewing threads are also numbered by this system. The cotton system is an indirect system since the finer the yarn the larger the number. Cotton system. Courtesy reference[1]. Below are some examples that illustrate how the size of the weaving yarn actually affect the weight of the fabric. Fabric weight versus yarn size. Courtesy reference[1]. Filament yarn size is dependent partly on the size of the holes in the spinneret and partly on the rate at which the solution is pumped through the spinneret and the rate at which it is withdrawn. The size of the filament yarns and fibers is expressed in terms of weight per unit length – denier (pronounced den-yer). In this system the unit of length remains a constant. The numbering system is direct because the finer the yarn the smaller the number. Filament yarn size. Courtesy reference[1]. Classification by Twist Twist is defined as the spiral arrangement of fibers around the central axis of the yarn. Twist is produced by revolving one end of the fiber strand, while the other end is held stationary. Twist binds the fiber together and gives the yarn its strength. The direction of the twist is described as S-twist and Z-twist. These terms have largely replaced the terms “regular”, “reverse”, “right” and “left”, which were confusing since the latter we used with opposite meaning by various segments of the textile industry. A yarn has S-twist if when held in a vertical position, the spiral conforms to the direction of slope of the central proportion of the letter “S”. Courtesy reference[1]. A yarn has “Z-twist” if the direction of the spiral conforms to the slope of the central portion of the letter “Z”. Courtesy reference[1]. The amount of twist varies with the length of fibers, the size of the yarn, and the end-use of the yarn. Increasing the amount of twist up to a certain point will increase the strength of the yarn. Too much twist places the fibers at right angles to the axis of the yarn and causes a shearing action between fibers and so the yarn will lose strength. Courtesy reference[1]. Yarns with long fibers do not require as much twist as yarns with short fibers, since they establish more points of contact per fiber and so yield a stronger yarn for the same amount of twist. Fine yarns require more twist than coarse yarns. Knitting yarns have less twist than filling yarns used in weaving. It is important for knitting yarns to be very uniform in order to prevent the formation of thick and thin regions in the fabric. The table below yields some examples of different amounts of twist for various examples. Different twists for various examples. Courtesy reference[1]. Low twisted yarns are used in filling yarns of fabrics that are to be napped. The low twist permits the napping machine to tease out the ends of the staple fibers and to create a soft fuzzy surface. Average twist is most frequently used for yarns made of staple fibers and seldom used for filament yarns. The amount of twist that gives warp yarns maximum strength is referred to as standard warp twist. Warp yarns need more twist than filling yarns because warp yarns are under high tension on the loom and they must resist wear caused by the abrasion of the shuttle moving back and forth. The lower the twist of the filling yarns makes them softer and less apt to kink. High, hard twist (voile twist) yarns have 30 to 40 turns per inch. The hardness of the yarn results when twist brings the fibers closer together and makes the yarn more compact. This effect is more pronounced when a twist-on-twist ply yarn is used. Twist-on-twist means that the direction of twist in the singles is the same as the direction of plying twist (see figure below). This results in a build-up of the total amount of twist in the yarn. Twist-on-twist yarn. Courtesy reference[1]. Crepe yarns are made of either staple or filament fiber. They are made with a high number of turns per inch (40 to 80) inserted in the yarn. This makes the yarn so lively and kinky that it must be twist-set before it can be woven or knitted. Twist-setting is a finishing process in which the yarns are moistened and then dried in a straightened condition. After weaving, the cloth is moistened and the yarns become lively and kinky once more and thus produce the crinkled characteristic of true crepe fabrics. All of the common natural fibers and rayon can be used in crepe twist yarns because they can be twist-set in water. The thermoplastic fibers are not used in high-twist crepe yarns because they are not affected by water; and if the twist is set by heat, the liveliness of the twist is deadened. Increasing the amount of crepe yarn twist and alternating the direction of twist will increase the amount of crinkle in a crepe fabric. For example, 6S and 6Z will give a more prominent crinkle than 2S and 2Z. To identify crepe yarns, ravel adjacent sides to obtain a fringe on each of the two edges. Test the yarns that are removed by pulling on the yarn and then letting one end go. The yarn will “kink up” as shown below. Courtesy reference[1]. Do not confuse this kink with the yarn crimp. Examine the fringe of the fabric. If yarns other than crepe yarns are used in the fabric, they will probably be of very low twist. The majority of crepe fabrics have crepe yarns in the crosswise direction, although some are in the lengthwise direction and some have crepe yarns in both directions. Classification by Number of Parts and by Appearance A simple yarn is alike in all its parts. A novelty yarn has unlike parts; it is irregular at regular intervals. Simple yarns are classified as single, ply and cord. A single yarn is the product of first twisting operation that is performed by the spinning machine. Courtesy reference[1]. A ply yarn is made by a second twisting operation that combines two or more singles. Each part of the yarn is called a ply. The twist is inserted by a machine called the “twister”. Most ply yarns are twisted in the opposite direction to the twist of the singles from which they are made; thus the first few revolutions tend to untwist the singles and straighten the fibers somewhat from their spiral position and the yarn becomes softer. Plying tends to increase the diameter, strength and quality of the yarn. Two-ply yarn. Courtesy reference[1]. A cord is made by a third twisting operation that twists ply yarns together. Some types of sewing thread and some rope belong to this group. A cord yarn. Courtesy reference[1]. Novelty yarns have regular cycles of uneven arrangement and may be unlike in all parts. They are made on twisters with special attachments for giving different tensions and rates of delivery to the different plies and thus allow loose, curled, twisted or looped areas in the yarn. Slubs and flakes of color are introduced also into the yarn by special attachments. The durability of the novelty yarn fabrics is dependant on the size of the novelty effect, how well the novelty effect is held in the yarn, and on the firmness of the weave of the fabric. Generally speaking, the smaller the novelty effect the more durable the fabric, since the yarns are less affected by abrasion and do not tend to catch and pull out so readily. A typical novelty yarn has three basic parts: the ground or foundation, the fancy or effect, and the binder. A novelty yarn. Courtesy reference[1]. Ratiné is a typical novelty yarn. The effect ply is twisted in a somewhat spiral arrangement around the ground ply; but at intervals a longer loop is thrown out, kinks back on itself, and is held in place by a binder. The spiral or corkscrew yarn is made by twisting together two plies that differ in size or in twist. These two parts may be delivered to the twister at different rates of speed. The knot, spot, nub, knop yarn is made by twisting the effect of ply many times in the same place. Two effect plies of different colors may be used and the knots arranged so the colored spots are alternated along the length of the yarn. A binder is added during the twisting operation. In the spike or snarl, the effect ply form alternating unclosed loops along both sides of the yarn. The loop, curl or bouclé yarn has closed loops at regular intervals along the yarn. These yarns are used in woven or knit fabrics to create a looped-pile that resembles caracul lambskin and is called astrakhan cloth. They are used to give textured effects to other coatings and dress fabrics. Slub effects are achieved in two ways. True slubs are made by varying the tightness of the twist at regular intervals. Intermittently spun flake or slub effects are made by incorporating soft, thick, elongated tufts of fiber into the yarn at regular intervals. A core or binder is needed in the latter case. The fancy or effect ply in several kinds of novelty yarns. Courtesy reference[1]. Metallic yarns have been used for thousands of years. The older yarns were made of pure metal (lamé) and were heavy, brittle, expensive and had the disadvantage of tarnishing (i.e. oxidation products of the surface). More recently metallic yarns are made by laminating a layer of aluminium foil between two layers of plastic film. This laminate is then cut into strips that range from 1/120 to 1/8 th of an inch. The sheets of film may be colorless, giving the yarn the natural aluminium color or the film or adhesive may be colored before the laminating process. The colors of gold, silver, copper and pastel or porcelain are easily obtained. Laminating metal yarn. Courtesy reference[1]. The first plastic film was acetate. Polyester film was produced in 1954 and was stronger, more flexible and washable. Aluminium, vaporized under high pressure was deposited on polyester film. A very small amount of metal was required and the metallized film could be laminated between two layers of clear film or it could be used with only one other layer of film. Fabric containing a large amount of metal can be embossed. Ironing can be a problem when metallic film yarns are used with cotton, since a temperature high enough to take wrinkles out of the cotton will melt the plastic. The best way of removing wrinkles is to tip the iron on its side and draw the edge of the sole of the iron across the fabric. Reference: [1] N. Hollen and J.

About this artpiece from the Baroque painter Bartholomeus van der Helst In 1642 Bartholomeus van der Helst made this painting. What is more, the piece of art forms part of the art collection of Rijksmuseum, which is the largest museum for Dutch art and history from the Middle Ages to the present day. With courtesy of Rijksmuseum (public domain license).In addition, the artwork has the following creditline: . Furthermore, alignment is in portrait format with a ratio of 3 : 4, which means that the length is 25% shorter than the width. Bartholomeus van der Helst was a painter from the Netherlands, whose style can be attributed primarily to Baroque. The Dutch painter lived for 58 years and was born in 1612 in Haarlem, North Holland, Netherlands and deceased in 1670. Original information about the artwork from Rijksmuseum (© - Rijksmuseum - www.rijksmuseum.nl) Like his father, the twenty-year-old Gerard Bicker is portrayed as self-assured, his arm akimbo. The striking differences in the garments worn by father and son confirm that they are from different generations. While his father Andries is dressed in dignified black clothing with an old-fashioned ruff, Gerard wears a colourful and showy outfit with a flat collar and elegant gloves. Gerard was not awarded as many key administrative positions in Amsterdam.
