Default Landscape cloth for weeds

I bought some because a landscaper relative said it was better than
plastic - kept weeds down but didn't block flow of water to soil.

Had a yard party - several friends came over and redid a rose bed -
took out the weeds and dirt, smoothed down area, installed landscape
cloth, re-covered with dirt. Looks gorgeous!

Comes my gardener and says that this doesn't work. Weeds come
up anyway, and are harder to pull out because stuck in the cloth.

Oy!

Any wisdom out there?
