yeaaaa i dont have the space for a satin loom i dont think (i like satin mostly due to its historic use in the american og107 uniform after they threw a material sciences guy at figuring out a uniform fabric more durable than herringbone twill and his conclusion was a reversed satin fabric because the now exposed warp runs in parallel with the direction of motion reducing snagging on shrubs and stuff
