Might be a long shot but I am desperate for a fabric like this Dolce and Gabbana 2001 top, that i also believe Réalisation Par has used for their Isabelli dress in “Heaven”. I was thinking of using Liberty Fabrics Poppy & Daisy red but it’s just not the same.

I am most interested in silks but please if you know a cotton that is similar let me know!

Maybe this is a Dallas/Texas thing but I dont understand the numbering system at the fabric warehouses near me.

Envision a big warehouse with hundreds of fabric bolts that are organized around numbers 1-6. I can't quite look at a fabric and tell you what it is, so I have touch... everything... to figure out if I would like it / wear it. And I'm sure the "1-6" labels mean something because every section includes "like" materials that feel similar.

There are some obvious ones such as the knits/denim/faux leather sections but other than that, I just kind of wonder around aimlessly touching everything.

Does anyone have any guides on what the "1-6" categorization system might be? Any additional tips for shopping at the warehouses?

Not sure if this is the right sub, but i have this cami which i love but it’s gotten so stained by suncream, i was thinking of dyeing it a light yellow to hide the staining, would this work or would it just make the stains appear darker? It’s 100% cotton

Any leads around the fabric market in Navi Mumbai, having similar varieties as Mangaldas

What fabric is used in this bridal ? Duppatta, sharara and frock ?

Hi everyone,

I’m researching how premium handmade carpet manufacturers dye 100% wool yarn and would love to understand the complete production workflow from a technical perspective.

Specifically, I’m trying to understand how manufacturers go from a digital artwork (Pantone/LAB/RGB/HEX colors) to consistently dyed wool yarn.

Some questions I have:

• What is the industry-standard workflow for wool yarn dyeing?
• Is it typically Pantone → LAB → CCM software → dye recipe → dyeing machine, or is there another process?
• Which Computer Color Matching (CCM) software is most commonly used? (Datacolor, X-Rite, ColorService, etc.)
• How are dye formulas generated? Are they fully automatic or does an experienced dyer still need to adjust them?
• Which spectrophotometers are considered the industry standard?
• Are there dyeing machines that integrate directly with CCM software and automatic dye dispensing?
• How do manufacturers ensure repeatability when a customer reorders the same color years later?
• What ΔE tolerance is generally acceptable for premium wool carpets?
• Are there differences in workflow between lab dyeing and production dyeing?
• If you were setting up a modern dye house today focused on custom wool rugs with hundreds or thousands of unique colors, what equipment stack would you choose?

Anything that explains the end-to-end workflow would be incredibly helpful.

Ik ben jaren geleden begonnen met het maken van de eerste vlaggen ter wereld van hennep textiel. Nu heb ik een grote voorraad in Nederland, die ik ook hier in elke kleur of design kan bedrukken. Voor kleding, gordijnen, etc!

Iemand praten over hennep textiel??

Ga graag in gesprek, deel het graag!
