To give you quick answer.....No...Frontier is a plain weave cloth...when weaving it it goes under over under over etc...
next line over under over under...etc and so on ...please forgive my basic description- just trying to simplify weave for you. Traditional yarn count weave under usual method no high twisting..which in frontiers case makes it slightly coarse but nowhere near a fresco type yarn and because of its Traditional construction in is still softer than others but will hold its shape..have a great weekend if you want more details please let me know.

Is the Frontier 2-ply in both warp and weft? Does Harrisons or Lesser have any cloth that is 2-ply high twist yarns?
Thanks James.

In answer to your question frontier is indeed 2 fold both ways.Lessers do also have a slightly lighter weight 8/9 oz 2 fold both ways.As regards to twist ..they are both twisted but not high twist...
sorry for late reply.
Kindest Regards
