Originally a multifilament yarn was weaved from velvet or cotton terry cloth to create a surface of hooped threads. A similar second multifilament yarn was created but the hoops were cut to create hooks. When the two fabrics contact with each other the hooks become entangled with the hoops. The same concept is used with other materials such as Nylon.
