I am looking for a word describing a patchy appearance.

This is found in things like hair, felt, grass, velvet etc. - specifically surfaces, materials or areas comprised of a totality of much smaller, and usually upwardly angled fibers, hairs, blades and so forth, where there are areas of visible wear, damage or interruption.

e.g.

The felt looked ______.

I've gone through thesauri multiple times and cannot find the word I'm looking for. Any help would be appreciated!
