One-direction emphasis
Make the warp formula active and keep the weft quiet for vertical stripes, or reverse the approach for horizontal stripes.
Stripe design
Stripe pattern generator for fabric repeats
Design vertical, horizontal, balanced, or asymmetric stripe repeats with compact formulas. Use TextileWeave to test regimental stripes, ticking stripes, pinstripes, awning stripes, and woven band layouts.

Precise stripe widths
Thread-count formulas make it easy to test narrow pins, wide blocks, and repeating accent bands.

Workflow
From idea to exportable pattern.
01
Set the stripe direction
Use the warp for vertical stripes or the weft for horizontal stripes.
02
Define the band widths
Write thread counts for each color block.
03
Add contrast pins
Use short segments like 2b or 1d to create fine accent lines.
FAQ
Common questions
Can TextileWeave make vertical stripes? +
Yes. Put the stripe sequence in the warp formula and use a simple weft formula.
Can it make horizontal stripes? +
Yes. Put the stripe sequence in the weft formula and keep the warp simple.
Can I make a stripe repeat from exact counts? +
Yes. Each formula segment combines a count and a color key, which makes stripe widths predictable.
