The Other Flannel: Flannelette Fabric

Flannelette is a cotton imitation of flannel and “typically refers to a napped cotton the texture of flannel. The weft is generally coarser than the warp. The flannel-like appearance is created by creating a nap from the weft; scratching it and raising it up. Flannelette can either have long or short nap, and can be napped on one or two sides. It comes in many colours, both solid and patterned.” Via Wikipedia
