Crepe Meteore
CREPE METEORE
A fine French all-silk fabric made from very fine silk yams in 2 & I twill weave. Only the weft is crepe and it is used two right, two reverse. Cloth width is 43-in. to finish 39/40-in. There are 220 (double ends) and from 80 up to 100 picks per inch. Owing to the large number of ends it is woven on six shafts, giving a warp face. It is piece-dyed and finished to give a lustrous face.
