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

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

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

Now, to add the wavy lines:
Step 5: In a new document, create a bunch of horizontal lines

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

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

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