A method of producing a patterned and/or apertured nonwoven material wherein a web of continuous filaments are formed on a forming member, the continuous filaments being free from each other without any thermal or adhesive bonds therebetween, and applying a wetformed fiber dispersion containing natural and/or synthetic or regenerated staple fibers on top of the synthetic filaments. The web is hydroentangled, from the side on which the natural fibers and/or staple fibers are applied, in two subsequent hydroentangling stations and is between the hydroentangling stations transferred from a first hydroentangling wire having a mesh value of at least 20 mesh/cm, to a second hydroentangling wire, having a mesh value of no more than 15 mesh/cm. A nonwoven material is obtained having one side with predominantly continuous filaments and one side with predominantly natural fibers and/or synthetic staple fibers, wherein the material on the side with predominantly natural fibers and/or synthetic staple fibers has a three-dimensionally patterned structure and that natural fibers and/or synthetic staple fibers are penetrating into the layer of continuous filaments and are protruding through the layer of continuous filament.
