English term or phrase: slub yarn
Heddels explains Slub Yarn

Slub yarn refers to yarn that has been purposely spun with slubs (thicker sections along the yarn). While it was once seen only as a defect, slub yarn is now intentionally created to give fabric more personality.

By spinning slub yarn with predictable, repeating slubs, the material woven from it develops roves, or intentional patterns within the fabric. However, slub yarn reduces the durability of the fabric as the yarn then inherently has weak spots.

reljefno pamučno predivo


Explanation:
sjećam se da sam jednom koristila u nekom katalogu gdje je bilo prihvatljivo kao "labavije" rješenje, ako je kontekst više tehnički, ne znam :(

bukle predivo


Explanation:
bukle (franc. bouclé, od boucler: kovrčati), naziv za pređu i tkaninu izrađenu najčešće od vune, hrapave, neravne gornje površine (lica), s nepravilno raspoređenim izbočenjima u obliku kvržica, čvorića i petljica, koje potječu od efektne pređe u potki. Ugl. se upotrebljava za toplu zimsku odjeću koja se ne gužva (ogrtači, kostimi, haljine). Osim od vune, danas se bukle tkanine izrađuju i od efektnih pređa od drugih vrsta vlakana. >www.enciklopedija.hr/natuknica.aspx?id=10074

Bukle predivo može biti izrađeno od vune ili nekog drugog materijala, poput pamuka. Koristi se kako za pletenje, tako i za izradu materijala poput tvida.

Example sentence(s):
  • Punije predivo specifične teksture, sa mnogobrojnim "petljicama" u tkanju.
