Hopsacking
Hopsacking is a course, open, basket-weave fabric. The name comes from the plain-weave hemp and jute fibre for sacking in which hops gathered. Made from cotton, wool, linen, rayon, silk, hemp, or jute, it has a somewhat rough texture and is quite durable and often bulky. See basket weave, jute fibre and hemp fibre.
