Expression to translate: marled shirt

Definition: Marled cotton refers to marled cotton yarn. This type of yarn is made by twisting single plies of different colored yarns together to create a multi-toned effect. Many definitions describe marled yarn as two-toned, being made from two colors twisted together. In fact, marled yarns can be made of two, three, four, five, six or even more color of yarn. The key is that each colored ply of yarn is twisted with the others to create multiple tones in one long, continuous piece of yarn. This look is also referred to as mottled.
