Organdy

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Organdy or organdie is the sheerest cotton cloth made. Combed yarns contribute to its appearance. Its sheerness and crispness are the result of an acid finish on lawn gray goods. Because of its stiffness and fiber content, it is very prone to wrinkling. Organza is the filament-yarn counterpart to organdy. Organdy is a balanced plain weave.
