  This research deals with the fabric’s shrinkage ratio in both directions (warp and weft), by studying the effect of each of the warp and weft variables on the shrinkage ratio. These variables are the type, density, Yarn tension and the count of both warp and weft yarns in addition to the weave structure. After test different types of these variables and found that weft density relationship and weft count with shrinkage ratio toward warp is a positive relationship, while the relationship shows the amount of weave float and Yarn tension of both warp and weft thread with shrinkage ratio towards warp is an inverse relationship. The warp density and warp count with shrinkage ratio towards weft relationship is a positive relationship, while the relationship shows the amount of weave float and Yarn tension of both warp and weft thread with the shrinkage ratio towards weft is an inverse..
