What is the crossword clue for "plush woven fabric" (6 letters)? Let me reveal the answer!

In crossword puzzles, if the clue describes a "luxurious, soft, and velvety" 6-letter woven fabric, the most classic answer is VELVET.

Here is a detailed description of this fabric and its common characteristics in puzzles:

1. VELVET

This is the standard and most common 6-letter word for "luxurious fabric."
Unique structure: It is a double-layered woven fabric. During weaving, an extra set of vertical threads is added in addition to the regular warp and weft threads. The two layers of fabric are then cut apart, creating a dense pile on the surface.
Feel and appearance: It is extremely soft and silky to the touch, and has a deep, lustrous sheen. The color and texture change depending on whether you stroke the pile with or against the grain.
Common uses: It is the preferred fabric for high-end dresses, luxury curtains, and opulent sofa upholstery, representing elegance and wealth.

2. VELOUR

Although this word also has 6 letters and is often confused with velvet, it may also appear in some puzzles.
Distinction: Strictly speaking, much velour is knitted, but it can also refer to a similar woven fabric structure. It is usually more elastic than true velvet and more affordable.
Common uses: Often found in sportswear (such as the velvet tracksuits popular in the 1980s) and stage curtains.

3. MOHAIR

If the clue emphasizes a soft fabric "from goat hair," this 6-letter word is also a strong contender.
Source: It is made from the hair of Angora goats.
Texture: This woven fabric also has long pile, is very fluffy and elastic, and has a high luster, earning it the title of "fiber gem."
Common uses: Expensive sweaters, scarves, or upholstery fabric for high-end furniture.

4. JERSEY (Although 5-6 letters, it is knitted)

Note that although JERSEY is sometimes mistakenly considered a woven fabric, it is actually a knitted fabric, not a true woven fabric. If your crossword puzzle grid requires strict adherence to rules, this option is usually not chosen.
