The weave used for Turkish towels is :

  • A.Cut pile
  • B.Uncut pile
  • C.Jacquard
  • D.Lappet

Answer: B

Turkish towels use an uncut pile weave.

Turkish (terry) towelling is a pile fabric in which extra warp yarns are woven in slack and form loops on one or both faces. The loops are left uncut, which gives a large surface area for absorbing water.

In a cut pile the loops are cut to stand as tufts, as in velvet and corduroy, which would not suit a towel. Jacquard is a loom attachment for complex figured patterns, and lappet is an extra-warp figure weave; neither forms the looped pile of a towel.
