A close-up of handwoven cloth with visible threads, an intricate motif, gentle raking light across the texture, folded edges and a small loom softly blurred behind.
Handwoven cloth shows its craft in the threads, so the prompt asks for raking light from the side, which casts tiny shadows across the weave. Folded edges show it is fabric, and a loom in the soft background tells the story of how it was made. The fabric, pattern and colour blanks let you match a real textile.
The pattern looks printed, not woven.
Fix: Ask for slightly uneven threads and tiny variations in the weave, as raking light shows.
- The motif is not accurate. Describe the real design in plain terms, such as repeating small diamonds, and compare it with actual cloth you know.
- The loom is mismatched. Keep it simple and out of focus. A wrong loom in sharp detail is easy to spot.
Ask for a weaver’s hands passing the shuttle, with a close-up of the threads and warm workshop light.
Keep the weave and motifs. Show more of the uneven hand-woven texture and a few loose threads at the edge so it looks handmade.
