What does BROCHE mean in Scrabble?
noun
A fabric woven with a raised pattern or figure, similar to brocade.
The word broche is French, from the verb meaning to stitch or to brocade, and it describes cloth with a design that seems worked into the surface. Weavers also use it for a shuttle-like device that carries coloured yarn when a figure is built up in tapestry. In English it is mostly met in descriptions of textiles and old inventories, and it should not be mixed up with the spelling of the clasp, brooch.
