Twill Fabric

Twill fabric is a type of weave characterized by diagonal patterns formed by the weave structure, where the weft yarns pass over one or more warp yarns and then under two or more warp yarns in a staggered manner. This results in a fabric with a distinctive diagonal pattern, which can be seen on the surface. Twill is durable, flexible, and often has a slightly textured feel. It can be made from various fibers, including cotton, wool, and synthetic fibers.

Key Characteristics of TWILL Fabric

Diagonal Weave

The weave creates diagonal lines or ridges, giving twill its signature texture and enhanced durability.

Weight and Durability

Variety of Materials
