Waffle fabric, also known as honeycomb fabric, has raised threads that form small rectangles. It can be made by either weaving or knitting. Waffle weave is a further exploitation of plain weave and twill weave which produces a three-dimensional effect. The combination of warp and weft floats creates the structure.

It is woven partly on tabby areas surrounded by ridges of long floats. The weave consists of warp and weft floats arranged around a plain weave center. The warp and weft threads are interlaced and floating in a way that creates small square ridges and hollows in the fabric in a regular pattern.

Waffle fabric, renowned for its unique texture and exceptional comfort, is a highly versatile textile that has captured the attention of both fashion and home decor enthusiasts. Characterized by its distinct grid-like pattern, reminiscent of a waffle's surface, this fabric offers a blend of functionality and aesthetic appeal.
