Other than there are many varieties of fancy/structural weaves. We discuss it one by one.
Barley Corn Weave:
A mat weave also forms the foundation of each of the designs to which the term Barly-Corn is applied. The cross twill in the designs gives a considerable degree of firmness to the cloth as compared with ordinary hop packs of similar sizes, particularly when the cross twill is in double lines of link. The floats of Warp and Weft cut with each other perfectly.
The construction of Barley Corn is clearly demonstrated below by means of a picture.
Corks- Screw Weave:
The Weave of the Cork-Screw types is twilled ribs and similar in many respects to the diagonal ribs which are used along with or in combination with other weaves for a variety of purposes. In their simplest form, they produced either a warp or a weft surface, and they are most regular in construction when the repeat contains an additional number of threads. If a warp Cork -Scerew strip and fabric is turned one quarter round, the appearance of a weft Cork-Scerew textured is observed.
The construction of the Corks- Screw cloth is clearly demonstrated below by means of a picture.
Diaper Weave:
The Diaper weave is the simplest weave is produced as a further development of the Herring Bone Twill, in which the principle of opposing a warp float on one side by the design by a weft floats on the other, Is extended in both direction i.s horizontally and vertically. In this manner, a design is formed in which the typical Herring Bone cut splits the design into quarters, then diagonally opposite quarters being similar. Simple even-sided twills such as the 2 and 2 or 3 and 3 produce a well-balanced diaper effect. The diaper can be constructed on Herring Bone drafts.
The construction of the Diaper Weave cloth is clearly demonstrated below by means of a picture.
Double Cloth Weave:
In the Double Cloth Weave, Two fabrics are woven on the loom at the same time one on top of the other. The fabric may have a Plain Weave on both side and a Twill weave on the other. Each of the fabrics requires its separate sets of warp and filling yarn. They are combined by the interlacing of some of the Warp or filling yarns or by means of another complete set of stitching yarn. The surface of such fabrics may show different pattern or colour on each side by varying the yarns. A true Double-Cloth weave is never a pasted construction because the Double Cloth weave produces two pieces of fabric combine into one fabric. The fabrics are commonly warm and padded.
The construction of the Simple Double cloth weave is clearly demonstrated below by means of a picture.
Herring Bone Weave:
These Herring Bone Twills although they depend upon the reversal of the direction to achieve the desired effect are constructed in a different manner from the ordinary waved twills. The twill does not come to a point where it is changing the direction but instate one twill line is said to 'cut or break' into the other at a point reverse. The twill runs from Left to right for a desired number of ends, in this case, eight number end-where upon the reverse of the direction take place by introducing on the ninth end the marks which are exactly opposite to those of the eighth end and connecting to run the Twill from this point down in the reverse direction. All these types of weave are extensively used in the manufacture of suiting and cover coating.
The construction of the Herring Bone cloth is clearly demonstrated below by means of a picture.
Honey Comb Weave:
In the cloth produce, Honey-Comb Weaves the threads from ridges and hallow which give a cell-like appearance to the textures. Both the Warp and Weft threads float amongst freshly on both side, which coupled with the rough structure, render this class of fabric readily absorbent of the moisture. These weaves are suitable for Towels, Bed Covers and Quilts. These weaves are two ( 2 ) classes:
1. Ordinary Honey-Comb gives a similar effect on both sides of the cloth.
2. Brighton Honey-Comb which produce the cellular formation on the side of the cloth only. These can be woven in pointed drafts.
The construction of the Honey Comb cloth is clearly demonstrated below by means of a picture.
Huck-A-Back Weave :
The cells of Huck-a-Back are based on plain weave. It looks rough due to long floats of Warp and Weft on face and back respectively on Plain ground. Huck -a-Back weaves make the cloth absorbent with a firm structure and hence it is used in the manufacturer of Towelling fabric from both Cotton and Linen.
There is a slight difference between the Huck-a-Back and Mock Leno weaves, so far as their appearance is concerned. The essential difference between them is in the order of Denting process. The weaves are originally meant for Mosquito curtaining, but nowadays it is also being vastly used for the production of varieties of shirtings and screens.
Leno weave:
Leno weave also made with a special attachment are usually lightweight and open giving a lace-like appearance and side made by twisting.

Basic Weaves in Textiles –
Plain, Twill & Satin
All woven fabrics are made from two sets of threads —
Warp (lengthwise) and Weft (crosswise). The way these threads interlace at
right angles forms the weave. Warp threads are called Ends, and weft threads
are called Picks.
There are three basic weaves:
1. Plain Weave:-
The simplest and oldest weave. Each warp thread
alternates over and under each weft thread. Fabrics like Muslin, Percale, and
Taffeta use this weave.
Derivatives of Plain Weave:
1. Warp Rib Weave: Fine warp + coarse weft → ribs along
the weft.
2. Weft Rib Weave: Coarse warp + fine weft → ribs along
the warp.
Matt Weave (Basket Weave):
Two or more ends and picks
interlaced together, creating patterns like Duck, Hop Sack, or Panama — often
used in furnishings.
2. Twill Weave:-
Recognized by diagonal lines on the fabric surface.
Twills can be warp-faced or weft-faced, and run either left-to-right or
right-to-left. Common in denim, gabardine, and serge.
Types of Twill:
Regular Twill
Zigzag / Pointed Twill
Rearranged Twill
Combined / Mixed Twill
Broken Twill
Fancy Twill
3. Satin / Sateen Weave:-
A derivative of twill, known for its smooth, lustrous
surface created by long floats of yarn.
Satin: Usually warp-faced, often made with silk or
filament yarns.
Sateen: Usually weft-faced, often made with cotton.
Categories:
Irregular Satin/Sateen: Even number of ends (e.g., 4,
6, 8, 10…).
Regular Satin/Sateen: Odd number of ends (e.g., 5, 7,
9, 11…).
