Abstract
There is provided a nonwoven fabric excellent in the balance among fuzz resistance, softness and tensile strength. The nonwoven fabric comprises an embossed portion and a non-embossed portion; the embossed portion comprising an emboss pattern that comprises unit patterns each delimited by emboss lines; the emboss lines each comprising a plurality of emboss element parts that are continuously arranged with a predetermined interval; wherein in the direction in which the distance from any arbitrarily-defined point in the non-embossed portion within the unit pattern toward the outside of the emboss lines that delimit the non-embossed portion is shortest, at least one of the plurality of emboss element parts is disposed so as to block the direction in which the distance from the arbitrarily-defined point toward the outside of the emboss lines that delimit the non-embossed portion is shortest.
