A Closer Look Into Pique Fabric
Pique fabric is created using a variation of the basic knitting technique. The fabric is woven using a special type of loom that raises certain warp yarns while leaving others lower, creating the distinctive textured pattern. This process results in a reversible fabric where the pattern is visible on both sides.
Pique fabric can be composed of a range of fibers, both natural and synthetic. Commonly used fibers include cotton, cotton blends, polyester, and blends of these materials. The choice of fiber can influence the fabric’s properties such as breathability, texture, and durability.
