Thanks to special technologies on the shelvesstores there is a huge selection of boucle. The fabric (the description of each of the species requires a detailed deepening into the object under consideration), can be both monophonic and colored, with or without a pattern, and have different thickness and porosity. Its appearance and features strongly depend on how exactly yarn is made, and also on raw materials.
Yarn can be nodular - in this case the threadthe production is curled in a special way, the machine turns it into a sort of spool. There is also a split boucle. In this case, the edge of the strings is attached to the material "furry" to the material, which appears on the surface of the tissue after it is weaved. In the second variant, the boucle is less durable, as compared with the nodule, requires special care and careful operation. Thinner types of fabric are weaved from a twisted thread.
