      I, Kenneth R. Bowling, certify that:

1. I have reviewed this quarterly report on Form 10-Q of Culp, Inc.;

2. Based on my knowledge, this report does not contain any untrue statement of a
   material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the
   statements made, in light of the  circumstances  under which such statements
   were made, not misleading with respect to the period covered by this report;

3. Based on my knowledge,  the financial  statements,  and other financial
   information  included in this report, fairly present in all material respects
   the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the
   registrant as of, and for, the periods presented in this report;

4. The registrant's other certifying  officer(s) and I are responsible for
   establishing  and  maintaining  disclosure  controls and procedures (as
   defined in Exchange Act Rules  13a-15(e) and  15d-15(e)) and internal contro
   lover  financial  reporting  (as defined in Exchange  Act Rules 13a-15(f) and
   15d-15(f)) for the registrant and have:

     (a)  Designed  such  disclosure  controls  and  procedures,  or caused such
          disclosure   controls  and   procedures  to  be  designed   under  our
          supervision,  to ensure  that  material  information  relating  to the
          registrant,  including its consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to
          us by others within those entities,  particularly during the period in
          which this report is being prepared;

     (b)  Designed such internal  control over  financial  reporting,  or caused
          such internal  control over  financial  reporting to be designed under
          our  supervision,   to  provide  reasonable  assurance  regarding  the
          reliability  of financial  reporting and the  preparation of financial
          statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted
          accounting principles;

     (c)  Evaluated the  effectiveness of the registrant's  disclosure  controls
          and procedures and presented in this report our conclusions  about the
          effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures, as of the end
          of the period covered by this report based on such evaluation; and

     (d)  Disclosed  in this  report  any  change in the  registrant's  internal
          control over financial reporting that occurred during the registrant's
          most recent fiscal quarter (the registrant's  fourth fiscal quarter in
          the case of an annual  report)  that has  materially  affected,  or is
          reasonably  likely to materially  affect,  the  registrant's  internal
          control  over  financial  reporting;  and

5.  The registrant's  other certifying officer(s) and I have disclosed, based on
    our most recent evaluation  of  internal  control  over financial reporting,
    to the registrant's  auditors  and the audit  committee  of the registrant's
    board of directors (or persons  performing the equivalent  functions):

     (a)  All significant  deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or
          operation  of internal  control  over  financial  reporting  which are
          reasonably  likely to  adversely  affect the  registrant's  ability to
          record, process, summarize and report financial information; and

     (b)  Any fraud, whether or not material,  that involves management or other
          employees who have a  significant  role in the  registrant's  internal
          control over financial reporting.
