Twill weave

As a rule, there are three fabric types and numerous variants for various demands and qualities. Starting with twill weave which could be called the original inlet weave. Due to the high fibre density, it has a high level of durability and convinces simultaneously with its smoothness and typical silk finish. Fabrics in twill weave can mostly be recognised at first sight by the diagonal ridges of twill. The ridges are caused by the diagonal shift of the connecting points. Every warp thread is once on top of and twice underneath the individual weft threads. Best conditions for feather and down-tight bed inlets.
