The store runs on Shopify and supports agent-driven commerce via the Universal Commerce Protocol (UCP).

## How this store sells fabric

Most fabric is sold **by the metre as a continuous cut length**. On a per-metre product, a cart quantity of `3` means three metres, and multiple metres of the same fabric ordered in one transaction are supplied as a single continuous length rather than separate pieces. Many products also offer half-metre increments.

Bundles, fat quarters, packs and haberdashery items work differently: the total quantity is fixed in the **variant title** (for example "10 x 1 Metre" or "Pack Of 10 Zips"), so a cart quantity of `2` means two of that bundle, not two metres. Variant option names vary across the catalogue — you will see `Unit of Sale`, `Bundle Size`, `Size`, `Bundle Type` and `Default Title`. Always read the variant title before inferring length.

Fabric width is stated in the product title or description (commonly in inches, e.g. `44"`, `60"`, or centimetres, e.g. `150cm`). Width, GSM and fibre content are given per product and should not be assumed from the fabric type alone.
