Fabrics made up of both raw silk and other fibers can form a kind of peculiar visual texture, which is know as the crepe effect, on fabric surfaces. However, the level of crepe is difficult to control. We put forward a method using image analysis and fractal geometry to evaluate the visual effect of creping, and analyze the relationships between the bending shape of yarns and the visual effect of creped fabrics. The results indicate that it is possible to control the crepe level by adjusting the fabric breadth during the breadth drawing process.
