Wikipedia

  1. twill weave

    Twill is a type of textile weave with a pattern of diagonal parallel ribs. It is one of three fundamental types of textile weaves along with plain weave and satin. It is made by passing the weft thread over one or more warp threads then under two or more warp threads and so on, with a "step," or offset, between rows to create the characteristic diagonal pattern. Because of this structure, twill generally drapes well.

  1. twill weave

    A twill weave is a type of textile weave with a pattern of parallel diagonal lines. It is created by offsetting the 'warp' and 'weft' threads used to create the fabric at regular intervals, forming a distinct diagonal pattern. This type of weave is more durable and hard-wearing than other types, and is often used for making jeans, jackets, and other heavy-duty garments. The face side of twill fabric usually has a more pronounced pattern and is more durable and attractive, making it the right side of the fabric.
