Cotton Twill Ribbon Ecru 15mm

Cotton Twill Ribbon Ecru 15mm

This cotton twill ribbon in Ecru has that natural, undyed tone that works with just about any garment or interior project. You can see the characteristic herringbone weave pattern clearly in the photos - firmly woven with a nice structure that gives the ribbon more body than a smooth, flat tape. The colour is subtly warm, somewhere between beige and off-white, and has a handmade feel without being overly rustic.

What is cotton twill ribbon

Twill tape is a woven ribbon with a diagonal rib pattern you recognise by the small slanted lines running along its length. That twill weave makes the ribbon firmer and less stretchy than a flat-woven ribbon, so it holds its shape well under tension. Cotton as a fibre gives you a soft, natural look and irons easily - you can also dye it if you want to. Because the material breathes and doesn't fray easily at the edges, it's a real workhorse among trims. The Ecru colour is undyed or lightly bleached, which gives the ribbon an authentic, timeless appearance.
