                                                          Table 1

                    Exercise number                                          Task
                           1                     Create Plain weave (1×1) design
                           2                     Make A 2/2 Twill

                           3                     Make a 5-end satin 3
                           4                     Design a custom complex weave draft (honeycomb or mock leno)
                           5                     Export your draft and create a large fabric swatch texture

           TASK 2: Process for plain weave design on CorelDraw

           Step 1: Open a New Document                          •  Use Rectangle Tool (F6):

           •  Open CorelDRAW                                       -  Draw small squares on each grid intersection
           •  Go to: File → New                                       where warp is over weft (let’s say, fill with black
                                                                      color).
           •  Set Page Size: 10 cm × 10 cm (or 500 × 500 px for
              digital design)                                   Step 4: Color Warp and Weft Threads
                                                                •  Warp threads → Use Blue Color
           •  Units: Millimetres (mm) or Pixels (px)
           Step 2: Draw the Base Grid                           •  Weft threads → Use Red Color
                                                                Use “Smart Fill Tool” in CorelDraw for this.
           This grid will represent  warp (vertical) and weft
           (horizontal) threads.                                Step 5: Create the Pattern Repeat (Rapport)
           •  Go to: View → Grid → Show Grid                    •  Group the full grid design.
           •  Set  Grid  Spacing:  For  example,  1  mm  or  10  px   •  Copy-paste the group to  check seamless repeat
              spacing                                           (Tile 2×2 or 3×3 next to each other).
           OR                                                   •  Adjust for perfect alignment.
           •  Manually draw lines:                              Step 6: Convert to Pattern Fill (Optional)
              -  Select Polyline Tool or Line Tool              •  Go to: Tools → Create → Pattern Fill
              -  Draw equal spaced vertical and horizontal lines   •  Select your weave grid area
                (Example: 10 warp × 10 weft)
                                                                •  Save the pattern fill for use on different shapes (for
           Step 3: Mark  Interlacement  Points  (Over-Under     simulation on garments, bags, etc.).
                  Structure)
                                                                Step 7: Export Your Final Design
           Plain Weave Rule                                     •  File → Export → JPEG / PNG / PDF
           •  Each warp goes over one weft, then under the next,   •  Resolution:  300 DPI (For print) or 150 DPI (For
              and so on.
                                                                screen)
           •  Weft does the reverse.
                                                                Practical Exercise Summary for trainees (Table 2)
