Description
A tightly woven fabric or ribbon with narrow horizontal ridges. Grosgrain originated in France. The stiff, plain-weave, fabric is usually made from silk or rayon warp and heavier cotton weft threads that produce the cross-grain ribs. Grosgrain has been used for ribbons, book covers, and trim on clothing.
