Ottoman

Ottoman
OTTOMAN
A dress fabric of warp rib weave from hard spun yarns. Originally silk was used, but now botany yarns or cotton is employed. The ribs may be formed at intervals to give stripe effects. The rib is known as the ottoman cord, and is broad and flat. It is much used as a ground weave for figured poplins in which silk and wool or silk and cotton are the yarns. There are three sizes of ottoman ribs known as Soleil, Ottoman and Ottoman Cord. Soleil has the smallest rib and is made in many qualities (see Soleil). Ottoman has a bolder rib than the Soleil and is made slightly heavier, such as 104 ends and 78 picks per inch or even higher, using the same yarns. Ottoman Cord is like Ottoman, but the ribs are of different sizes and arranged alternately.
