Daz Clothing texture distortion?

Either it's a camera or lighting angle, but sometimes the texture on clothes get distorted.
Mostly on knitted patterns or lots of close bumpy lines.
One angle it's ok (pic 1), another it's not (pic 2), sometime it gets hypnotic (pic 3)
There must be something I'm failing to see, can someone point me in the right direction?

Daz clothing is made for the Genesis base shape. When you dial a character morph in, the texture mapping isn't made for the new shape (assuming it was done well in the first place). It's just a technical limitation of 3d modeling. If it's really noticeable you can export to Blender, redo the UVs, and reimport them. Blender 3.4 comes out in December and is supposed to have new texturing tools.

The third picture looks like a Moire pattern.

It does look like the texture in certain angles produces a Moire pattern.
I tried a different cotton shader that has noticeably less of this effect on this model, will tweak it as necessary, thanks.

It is ( ).
I usually change textures, but I liked the cotton pattern on this one, oh well.
