Twill
Twill is a versatile woven fabric characterized by its diagonal weave pattern, offering durability and a distinctive texture.
About Twill
Twill fabric is constructed using a weaving technique that creates a diagonal ribbing effect, which is achieved by passing the weft thread over one or more warp threads and then under two or more warp threads. This results in a strong, durable fabric that drapes well and resists wrinkles. Commonly made from fibers such as cotton, polyester, and wool, twill is widely used in various applications including apparel, upholstery, and workwear due to its excellent durability and aesthetic appeal.
