WASL-487 Cotton Ladder Stripe Fabric with Dobby Dash Texture for Summer Shirts
WASL-487 is a 100% cotton woven fabric with regular vertical openwork stripe lines and small dash-like dobby texture on the ground. Compared with very sheer mesh fabrics, this fabric has a more stable woven body while still keeping breathable stripe details for shirts, blouses and lightweight apparel.
For buyers who only have a fabric photo or original sample and are not sure about the professional fabric name, this fabric direction can be discussed through composition, GSM, width, yarn specification, open stripe spacing, small dash texture, handfeel target and final garment usage.

Fabric Direction and Sourcing Language Reference
Structure Direction Reference
This fabric can be described as a cotton openwork stripe woven fabric with small dash dobby texture. The ground area appears close to a plain or basic woven construction, while the vertical stripe areas form continuous small holes, ladder-like openings or chain-like openwork lines.
The small dash texture on the ground may be created by dobby structure, small jacquard effect, short float decoration, yarn variation or another woven arrangement. It may belong to cotton openwork stripe fabric, textured cotton dobby fabric, small jacquard stripe fabric, cotton ladder stripe fabric or leno-style openwork woven fabric. The exact weaving structure should be confirmed with the original sample, enlarged photo, yarn count, density, GSM, width, handfeel and repeat structure.
Suggested Garment Usage
This fabric direction is suitable for women’s shirts, summer tops, casual shirts, lightweight dresses, girlswear, cover-ups, sleepwear and homewear. Because it has vertical openwork stripe lines and light semi-sheer areas, buyers should check transparency acceptance, possible inner layer or lining requirements, handfeel and wash stability before garment development.

Custom Development Evaluation
If the target fabric needs adjusted GSM, open stripe spacing, dash texture, transparency, yarn specification or handfeel, the original sample should be reviewed before sampling to estimate development feasibility and bulk production stability.
If Your Target Fabric Is Similar but Not Exactly the Same
Your target fabric does not need to be exactly the same as WASL-487. If it belongs to a similar direction, such as cotton openwork stripe fabric, cotton ladder stripe fabric, textured cotton dobby fabric, small jacquard stripe fabric, leno-style openwork fabric, chain-like openwork stripe fabric or lightweight cotton shirt fabric, you can submit a fabric photo or original sample for checking.
Zhejiang Zhongcai Light Textile Co., Ltd. can first review whether there are similar fabric directions available for sample cutting. If no suitable similar sample is found, we can evaluate whether the fabric is suitable for custom development according to the photo, original sample, GSM, composition, yarn specification, density, handfeel requirement, open stripe repeat, dash texture and final garment usage.
We do not suggest assuming that every similar openwork stripe fabric has ready stock or can be copied directly. For this structure direction, hole stability, dash texture clarity, stripe straightness, yarn tension, finishing control, transparency and wash stability should be checked before sampling or bulk production.

Quotation Direction
When yarn count, density, GSM, finishing requirement and order quantity are available, we can evaluate a practical reference quotation direction before formal sampling.
Sampling and Bulk Risk Review
Before development, we can help review yarn count, density, weave structure, shrinkage, dyeing, handfeel, openwork stability, dash texture clarity, skew risk and possible sample-to-bulk differences.
Key Points to Confirm Before Sampling or Bulk Production
- Openwork stripe stability: The vertical open stripe lines should remain continuous and even, avoiding irregular holes, closed holes or interrupted stripe areas during bulk weaving.
- Stripe straightness: The vertical openwork stripes are easy to notice after garment making, so skew and stripe distortion should be checked after finishing and washing.
- Small dash texture clarity: The short dash texture on the ground should remain clear and consistent after dyeing and finishing.
- Structure confirmation: If the buyer needs to copy the original sample, it should be confirmed whether the open holes are true leno weaving, dobby openwork, small jacquard structure or another woven construction.
- Machine speed and tension control: This structure usually requires careful machine speed and tension control because openwork stripe areas may be sensitive to broken warp ends and weaving defects.
- Broken warp ends and weaving defects: Openwork areas may require closer inspection for broken ends, skipped yarns, missing yarns, misaligned structure and similar weaving defects.
- Snagging risk: The small dash texture may have a slight raised or float-like appearance, so garment sewing, wearing and washing performance should be checked.
- Finishing and singeing control: If the openwork stripes or dash texture include fine connecting yarns, singeing, bleaching, dyeing and finishing tension should be controlled to avoid yarn damage or flattened texture.
- Transparency acceptance: The fabric has vertical openwork stripes and slight semi-sheer areas. Buyers should confirm whether inner layer, lining or garment design adjustment is required.
- Shrinkage control: As a 100% cotton woven fabric, warp and weft shrinkage should be tested before bulk order confirmation.
- Width and GSM stability: Openwork structure and dobby texture can be sensitive to finishing width and GSM variation, so acceptable tolerance should be agreed before production.
- Sample-to-bulk difference: Hole clarity, dash texture, handfeel and transparency may vary if yarn batch, loom setting or finishing process changes between sample and bulk.
