Young Curly Blonde Girl Wearing A White Necklace On The Rattan Armchair With A Red Velvet Fabric

The word 'velvety' is used as an adjective to mean "smooth like velvet".
Composition
Velvet is woven on a special loom that weaves two thicknesses of velvet at the same time. The two pieces are then cut apart to create the pile effect, and the two lengths of fabric are wound on separate take-up rolls. Velvet was expensive to make before industrial power looms became available. Velvet is difficult to clean because of its pile, but modern dry cleaning methods make cleaning more feasible. Velvet pile is created by warp or vertical yarns and velveteen pile is created by weft or fill yarns.
