The lines in the middle of the towel (Dobby Border): Are they decorative or do they serve a purpose?

Scientific Fact – Textile Engineering: 1. I called it the “Dobby Border,” not the “Twist.” That area isn’t just decorative. It’s woven with a different weave called the “Dobby Weave.” Its density is higher, and the threads are more compressed than those in other towels that have “Terry Loops.” 2. Its three scientific roles: Tensile Strength: The edges of the towel are the areas that stretch the most when it dries. The Dobby Border acts like a “Support Belt,” preventing the towel from frilling and tearing at the sides. It increases its lifespan by 2-3 times. Water Absorption Balance: While the moist Terry Loops absorb water well, they tear quickly. The Dobby Border provides a balance: half moist and half strong. So the towel doesn’t become completely floppy after washing. Branding + Sizing: Factories use their logo or to indicate the “Towel Size.” Hand towels have one stripe, body
