Birdseye: 1. A generic term describing a cloth woven on a dobby loom, with a geometric pattern having a center dot ressembling a bird's eye. Originally birdseye was made of cotton and used as a diaper cloth because of its absorbent qualities, but now the weave is made from a variety of fibers or fiber blends for many different uses. 2. A speckled effect on the back of a knit fabric resulting from the use of different colors on the face design. 1, record 2, English, - birdseye
