adobe photoshop - How to create a fabric pattern with wavy lines


I would like to create a fabric pattern, like this one:

I'm not very experienced in graphic design.


Could somebody please explain how to create a fabric texture and overlay a wavy line pattern in Photoshop?



Answer



A very similar question was asked not long ago: How to recreate this background in photoshop for use in a mobile app?



The one you provided is a little different with some wavy lines added. I was able to create something pretty close by doing the following:


Step 1: Create a document with the desired size and color


Step 1


Step 2: As per the answer in the linked question, add some noise


Step 2


Step 3: Add vertical lines (I created a quick pattern to make it easy)


Step 3


Step 4: Reduce the opacity of the vertical lines to about 4%


Step 4


Now, to add the wavy lines:



Step 5: In a new document, create a bunch of horizontal lines


Step 5


I did this in a new document because of the wave filter I'm about to apply


Step 6: Use Filter -> Distort -> Wave... to make your lines wavy


Step 6


Step 7: Change the color of your lines to white (if they aren't already) and paste them into your original document


Step 7


Step 8: Reduce the opacity of your wavy lines for the finished product


Step 8


Photoshop of course crashed before I could save the finished product, but I went through and made it again:
