Grass Cloth or grass is plain woven textiles, originally from linen but now mainly cotton. The grass is designed using fine yarn, high thread-yarn, which produces a subtle flavor, without texture. Fabrics are made using combed or carded threads. When the grass is made using combed thread, with soft shades and a little sparkle, it is known as "nainsook". The term grass is also used in the textile industry to refer to the dried rigid crunch type applied to the fabric product. Finish can be applied to a variety of fine fabrics, molds or plain.
