I believe the answer is:

calico

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'material' is the definition.
(calico is a kind of material)

I don't understand the remainder of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for calico that I've seen before include "Unbleached sixteen down cloth" , "Coarse printed cotton cloth" , "Plain cotton cloth, white or unbleached" , "Cotton cloth or fabric" , "Given material for dress" .)
