A method, system, and computer program are provided for simulating yarns and fabrics based on yarn parameters and fabric parameters. The yarn parameters may be determined directly from an actual yarn. The fabric parameters may be defined by a user. An actual yarn is modelled using position and orientation vectors, and a perfect yarn fabric is modelled using position vectors based in part on the actual yarn data. The actual yarn model and the perfect yarn fabric model may be combined to create an actual yarn fabric model that can be visually displayed to simulate fabric made from the yarn. (FIG.nil).
