There is a particular fabric I'm looking for that I'm having a lot of trouble finding. I believe it is a type of Tweed, except it doesn't really fit any in the commonly known and accepted categories of Tweed. Instead, it looks like this: Does anyone know what to call this fabric/tweed or what to search for to I can find this type of fabric/weave specifically? I would appreciate any help anyone could possibly give. P.S. Admittedly, I am looking for this fabric by the yard as opposed to anything vintage, but I was always directed here first on every search for a fabric identification forum.
I would agree with a type of boucle, not tweed. Although it does still look more uniform than any boucle wool I've seen before...
I don't think the fabric is a bouclé. It's hard to tell without handling it and the weave is probably exaggerated by being enlarged. I think it might be a textured chenille. This first fabric - sorry it's so large but I copied and pasted is a bouclé tweed. Bouclé has a raised or bumpy texture. This is an example of a chenille tweed - and I think it's closer but I'm not sure either one is exactly "it." This is very enlarged as well.
Another thought: A wool crepe? You can see that pictured on this page: https://vintagefashionguild.org/fabric-resource/crepe/ (last photo)
Thank you everyone for all of your help. Unfortunately, looking again at the original piece I'm trying to recreate, that fabric I shared isn't similar at all, so I'm planning on closing this thread and starting another with pictures from the actual garment. Thank you!
