Best Answer

Towels are woven. Towels are woven on dobby looms, meaning each loom has two sets or warp and thus two warp beams-one warp is called the ground warp and forms the body of the towel and the other is called the pile warp and it produces the terry pile or loop.

Why you take woven fabric by length and knitted fabric by weight?

Woven fabric tends to have a fairly stable size, so you can measure it by length. Knitted fabrics tend to be very stretchy, so when you cut them they shrink in on themselves or they can be stretched during the cutting to give you less fabric than you thought you were getting. However, in most fabric stores, you will purchase both woven and knitted fabrics by the yard (length).
