Tulle manufacture in Caudry , France - the origin of the tulle, lace and embroidery industry (1909)

A net-like fabric is called tulle . The term "tulle" is derived from the French city ​​of Tulle , which became known for this fabric in the 19th century .

material

Tulle is a woven fabric with continuous warp threads and just as many weft threads that run diagonally around the warp threads.

The weft threads are housed on small metal spools (bobbinet) which, as with braiding, run from left to right and back again with each warp thread a full loop (full twist).

In addition to these binding weft threads, at least one second weft thread system must be available for patterning; complicated patterns require further pattern thread systems; they are controlled by jacquard machines . This creates cross-over patterns and the finishing process gives the grommet its final shape.

Tulle is woven from yarns of various fineness and is smooth and simple or striped, patterned, brocaded in silk or embroidered with colorful flowers on a white or black background . Since tulle is semi-transparent, it is also used for curtains and underwear .

Its quality is determined by the material and the number of cells per square inch .
