PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a finishing process for woven fabrics using poly(trimethylene terephthalate) fibers at least in the weft of the fabric, thus giving the woven fabric having soft fabric hand, high dimensional stability and can be finished in a prescribed fabric width. SOLUTION: The woven fabric constituted with poly(trimethylene terephthalate) yarns at least in the weft is scoured. After the scouring, the woven fabric is subjected to the >=3% shrinkage preset to the fabric width, then dyed and finished. The preset is carried out at 140-200 deg.C in dry heat for 10 or more seconds and the preset in the temperature range from 160 deg.C to 180 deg.C for about 20-90 seconds is preferred because sufficient set effect can be attained.
