polkadot
Fabric pattern circle
Polkadot is a pattern of evenly spaced, uniform dots on fabric or other surfaces: a polkadot dress, polkadot wallpaper.
The dots are typically a contrasting color against the background.
Also spelled polka dot or polka-dot.
The pattern has no connection to the dance beyond sharing a name from the same 19th-century craze.
