Corduroy fabrics are known as "piles" or "naps". Pile fabrics have raised surfaces consisting of loops or tufts. Other fleece fabrics include velvet, velvet, and terry.

    When cutting out pile fabric, you must pay attention to the direction of the pile. As you stroke the fabric along its length, it feels softer in one direction than the other. You should cut your pattern so your grain lines are parallel to the selvage, but you can have your pile run in either direction. Just make sure all the pieces are cut in the same direction, as the pile will affect the color and sheen of the pieces, which will be notified when they are cut in different directions.

    Corduroy scuffs easily, and pins can leave very few marks on the fabric, especially if many layers are pinned together.

    One of the most important things to remember when working with corduroy is to be very careful with your iron!

    Pressing on the corduroy flattens the fluff, leaving a shiny, discolored mark that is unfortunately permanent. Always use the tip of the iron to lightly press the fabric against the back. Sometimes you can get away with just using steam and "finger pressing" the seams flat. Try to avoid pressing the edge of the seam into the fabric, as this can leave marks on the right side of the garment.

    Placing a towel (or better yet, a velvet board) on the ironing board under the garment will also help protect the fluff.
