1 - Corduroy Woven Fabric
📌 Description
Corduroy Fabrics from India are durable textiles characterized by their distinctive ribbed texture, created by weaving cotton fibers into vertical ridges. Known for their softness and warmth, these fabrics are commonly used for clothing like jackets, pants, and skirts.

✅ Key Features
✔ Textured & warm – Great for fall/winter
✔ Durable – Ages well with a vintage look
✘ Lint magnet – Use a lint roller frequently
✘ Stiffness – Softens over time
Patchwork Tip: Mix wale sizes for visual interest!

🧶 Fabric Construction:
Woven with a base twill weave and additional weft yarns that are later cut to create vertical ridges (wales). The number of wales per inch (e.g., 8-wale, 14-wale) determines the texture and feel—lower wale counts are chunkier; higher counts are finer and softer, stitched into patchwork layouts. May feature square or panel-style construction with visible seams for a handcrafted look

Weave: Tightly woven base with cut-pile ridges.
