4. Terrycloth, terry cloth, terry towelling, terry, or simply towelling is
a fabric with loops that can absorb large amounts of water. It can be
manufactured by weaving or knitting. Towelling is woven on special
looms that have two beams of longitudinal warp through which the filler
or weft is fired laterally.It is the length of loops that determines how much
fluid is absorbed by the cloth as longer loops provide more surface area
to absorb and come in contact with the fluid.
THERE ARE TWO TYPES OF TERRY FABRICS
1. Towel Terry is a woven fabric with long loops that can absorb large
amounts of water. Its content is usually 100% cotton, but may
sometimescontain polyester.
2. French Terry is a fabric, used in men's,women's and children's
clothes. One of its sides is flat, while the other side is with cross
loops.It is either 100% cotton or contains polyesterwith elastaine
(lycra). It is often warp knitted, and the term French Terry is
colloquially used for all warp knitted Terry.

6. DRILL
Drill is stout durablecotton fabric with a strong bias (diagonal) in the weave. It
can be used unbleached, although it is moreoften bleached or dyed.
Rill is a versatile fabric that has been used in a variety of applications. Boat sail
drill is a lightweight, unbleached drill used to make sails for sailing craft.
Although duck (canvas) was morecommonly used for these purposes, drillhas
also been used to make tarpaulins, tents, awnings and canopies,butthe use of
both fabrics has been supplanted in modern times with synthetic fabrics. Like
duck, drill is used as a covering for furnitureand cushions
COTTON DRILL
Light weight drill is used in clothing items such as shirts, safarijackets, blouses,
and sometypes of sports clothing. The heavier weights were often used in
corsets, and are commonly used in work clothing and uniforms. The most
common use of drill in uniforms and casualwear is in the form of khaki.
PROPERTIES
 Itis medium to heavy weight
 Itis strong and durable
 Itis breathable
 Has drape ability
 Itis might woven fabric
 Has high tensile strength
 Various finishes can be imparted to suit the end useof the fabric

7. Light weight drill is used in clothing items such as shirts, safari jackets, blouses,
and some types of sports clothing. The heavier weights were often used in
corsets, and are commonly used in work clothing and uniforms.[1]
The most common use of drill in uniforms and casual wear is in the form of
khaki. Usually taken to be a green color (often mistaken for tan or sandy), the
word comes from the Hindustani "khaki", meaning the color of dust; a term that
became current in mid-19th-century India. In the late 1840s native regiments
raised for frontier service in the newly conquered Punjab were supplied with
'drab' colored uniforms to make them "invisible in a land of dust." Learning
from this practice, British troops tookto dyeing their white drill uniforms to
obtain more serviceable campaign clothing; a practice that became widespread
during the crisis of the Indian Mutiny.

household items

8. CHIFFON
Chiffon is a lightweight plain-woven fabric with mesh like weave that gives it
transparentappearance. The word Chiffon has a French origin which means a
cloth. Itis primarily made from cotton, silk or synthetic fibers like nylon, rayon
and polyester. Chiffon is mostcommonly used to weave Sarees, Dresses and
Scarves. Early chiffon was made purely from silk. In 1938, however, a nylon
version of chiffon was invented, and in 1958 polyester chiffon was invented
and became immensely popular due to its resilience and low cost. Under a
magnifying glass chiffon resembles a fine net or mesh which gives it some
transparency.
NOTES
Chiffon is most commonly used in evening wear, especially as an overlay, for
giving an elegant and floating appearance to the gown. It is also a popular fabric
used in blouses, ribbons, scarves and lingerie. Like other crêpe fabrics, chiffon
can be difficult to work with because of its light and slippery texture. Due to
this delicate nature, chiffon must be hand washed very gently.[1]
Since chiffon is a light-weight fabric that frays very easily, bound or French
seams must be used to stop the fabric from fraying. Chiffon is smoother and
more lustrous than the similar fabric georgette.
In African countries, such as Eritrea and Ethiopia, traditional ankle-length
gowns are often made of chiffon which comes in many different designs and
colors
CHIFFON PROPERTIES
Chiffon, which is a French word for rag, is a lightweight sheer material with a
slightly rough feel to it. Itcan be made from cotton, silk or synthetic fibers, but
is usually associated with silk or nylon. Chiffon can be dyed to almost any
shadedesired, however if made from polyester it is difficult to dye.Chiffon
fabric is thin, transparentand typically made from silk, nylon or rayon.
Regardless of the type of chiffon you own, it's best to launder it gently to help
preservethe life of the garment. You can wash chiffon by hand or in the
washing machine.Chiffon can be made from silk (moreexpensive) or rayon
(moreaffordable). ... SILK CHIFFON , also known as silk mousselineor silk
crinkle chiffon is very similar to synthetic chiffon. It is sheer, softand very

9. lightweight, but is very delicate, expensive, and some brides dislike it's “raw”
texture.Chiffon Fabric Can Be a Good Option to Make FashionableClothes. On
the other hand chiffon made from rayon or synthetic fibers is stiff and rough.
... But silk chiffon fabric is not like this. This is why it is the best choice for
summer clothing.

10. CAMBRIC
Cambric or batiste, one of the finest and most dense kinds of cloth, is a
lightweight plain-weave cloth, originally from
the French commune of Cambrai, woven in greige,
then bleached,piece-dyedand oftenglazed or calendered.Initially it
was made of linen; later, the term came to be applied to cotton fabrics as
well. Cambric is used as fabric
for linens, shirts, handkerchieves, ruffs, laceand needlework. The term
"cambric cloth" also applies to a stiff,usually black, open-weave cloth
typically used for a dust cover on the bottom of upholstered furniture
CAMBRIC ORIGIN
Cambric was originally a kind of fine white plain-weave linen cloth made at or
near Cambrai. The word comes from Kameryk or Kamerijk, the Flemish name of
Cambrai, which became part of France in 1677. The word is attested since 1530. It is
a synonym of the French word batiste, itself attested since 1590. Batiste itself comes
from the Picard batiche, attested since 1401 and derived from the old
French battre for bowing wool. The modern form batiste or baptiste comes from a
popular merge with the surname Baptiste, pronounced Batisse, as indicated by the
use of the expressions thoilebatiche (1499) and toile de baptiste (1536) for the same
fabric.[11] The alleged[12] invention of the fabric, around 1300, by a weaver called
Baptiste or Jean-Baptiste Cambray or Chambray, from the village of Castaing in
the peerage of Marcoing, near Cambrai, has no historic ground. Cambric was a finer
quality and more expensive[16] than lawn (from the French laune, initially a plain-
weave linen fabric from the city of Laon in France Denoting a geographic origin from
the city of Cambrai or its surroundings (Cambresis in French), cambric is an exact
equivalent of the French very fine, almost sheer white linen plain-weave fabric, to be
distinguished from cambrasine, a fabric comparable to the French lawn despite its
foreign origin. Cambric is also close to chambray (/ˈʃɒmbreɪ/ from a French regional
variant of "Cambrai",a name which "also comes from Cambrai, the French city,
where the material was originally made of linen yarn". Chambray (also spelled
"chambray appears in North American English in the early 19th century. Though the
term generally refers to a cotton plain weave with a colored warp and a white weft,
close to gingham, "silk chambray" seems to have coexisted. Chambray was often
produced during this period by the same weavers producing gingham.
