Twill
Twill is a type of textile weave with a pattern of diagonal parallel ribs (in contrast with a satin and plain weave). This is done by passing the weft thread over one or more warp threads and then under two or more warp threads and so on, with a "step" or offset between rows to create the characteristic diagonal pattern. Because of this structure, twill generally drapes well.
Classification
Twill weaves can be classified from four points of view:
- Warp-way: 3/1 warp way twill, etc.
- Weft-way: 2/3 weft way twill, etc.
- S – Twill or left-hand twill weave: 2/1 S, etc.
- Z – Twill or right hand twill weave: 3/2 Z, etc.
- Warp face twill weave: 4/2 S, etc.
- Weft face twill weave: 1/3 Z, etc.
- Double face twill weave: 3/3 Z, etc.
Twill (magazine)
Twill is a quarterly fashion magazine with an international readership. The magazine was started in 2002 and is published in Paris. It combines fashion spreads, often with erotic overtones, with articles on political and cultural subjects. The articles are published in their original language, without translation, the majority of which are English followed by Italian, French and Spanish.
Twill is a unique venture in publishing that some media have labeled an intellectual fashion magazine. The oxymoron is rather obvious and, in fact, Twill is not a fashion magazine.' The elegant photography and graphics of ‘Twill make it look like a fashion magazine, but its texts deal with serious subjects or interpret visual arts in a literary key, thus creating glossy storyboards rather than fashion editorials.
The magazine is edited by Fosco Bianchetti; notable past contributors include Daniel Dennett, Tim Footman, Eugenio Recuenco, and Ellen von Unwerth.
It is printed in a large format 23x33cm with circa 224 pages, on high quality paper, printing techniques including drip-off.
Twill (band)

Cold And Ugly
by: ToolUnderneath her skin and jewelry,
hidden in her words and eyes
is a wall that's cold and ugly
and she's scared as hell.
Trembling at the thought of feeling.
Wide awake and keeping distance.
Nothing seems to penetrate her.
She's scared as hell.
I am frightened to.
Wide awake
and keeping distance from my soul.
