Read the open weave.
Slub yarns make the surface uneven; spaces between them allow light through. The lower fringe exposes the same yarns rather than adding a separate trim.

What should a real sample answer?
Hold it against your own light source. Look for the openness you want, check the reverse, and ask how the actual cloth changes after cleaning.
