About the Class:

Herringbone, also called a broken twill weave, describes a distinctive V-shaped weaving pattern usually found in twill fabric. It is distinguished from a plain chevron by the break at the reversal, which makes it resemble a broken zigzag.

The pattern is called herringbone because it resembles the skeleton of a herring fish.

Herringbone-patterned fabric is usually made of wool and is one of the most popular cloths used for suits and outerwear.

Hi everyone!

I’m Geetanjali, an artist, illustrator, and surface pattern designer based in Goa.

Today, I’m excited to guide you through creating a versatile herringbone weave pattern using Procreate.

In my previous class, 'How to Create a Herringbone Weave Pattern in Adobe Illustrator,' I explained the basics of twill and herringbone weave structures. If you'd like to learn more about them, I recommend watching that class first.

Whether you’re a beginner or have some experience, this class is designed to help you easily follow along as I break down each step.

While this pattern is often seen on different surfaces, there’s a unique distinction between the woven textures found in fabrics and the solid, structured tile patterns used in flooring.

To give you a deeper understanding, I’ve divided the class into two parts, with each focusing on creating one of these styles.

What you will need:

iPad
Procreate software

Let's get started!!
