Furano (English spelling)

Japanese: フラノ - ふらの(英語表記)flano
Furano (English spelling)

Originally a type of flannel, flannel is used for slightly thicker clothing fabrics. It can be made in plain weave, but is mainly made from fine woolen yarn, tightly woven into a 2-2 twill pattern, and then shrunk, brushed, and sheared to create a melton-like finish, resulting in a relatively thin woolen fabric with a firm texture. Most colors are light brown or gray with a marbling effect. To create the marbling effect, woolen yarn is spun from wool dyed in similar dark, medium, and light colors. It is used for suits, coats, trousers, clothing fabric, etc.

もとフランネルの一種であるが、それより少し厚地の洋服地に使うものをフラノとよんでいる。組織は平織もあるが、おもに細い紡毛糸を使い、2―2の綾(あや)地に緻密(ちみつ)に織り上げたのち、縮絨(しゅくじゅう)・起毛・剪毛(せんもう)してメルトン風の仕上げを施した、生地(きじ)に腰のある比較的薄地の紡毛織物。色合いは茶、ねずみ色など霜降りによる淡色のものが多い。霜降りを織り出すには、濃・中・淡の同系統の色に染色した原毛を、紡績してつくった紡毛糸が使われる。用途は、スーツ、コート、ズボン、洋服地などである。
