Abstract
A nonwoven extending in a machine direction and a perpendicular cross-machine direction and having fibers bonded by a pattern of thermal bonds. The thermal bonds comprise larger bonds having an individual area of at least 1.0 mm, in particular at least 1.5 mm; and smaller bonds having an individual area of less than 1.0 mm, in particular from about 0.10 mmto about 1.0 mm. There are at least as many smaller bonds as larger bonds, the ratio of the number of smaller bonds may be in particular about two.
