This document summarizes different types of fabrics, including natural fabrics like cotton, wool, linen, and silk as well as synthetic and regenerated cellulose fibers. Cotton is a natural fiber that grows on cotton plants and is cool, absorbent. Wool is sheared from sheep and is warm, breathable, and repels water. Linen comes from flax plants and is cool, absorbent but creases easily. Silk comes from silkworm cocoons and drapes well and can be easily dyed. Regenerated cellulose fibers like lyocell, tencel and viscose are processed from wood pulp. Synthetic fibers like polyester, nylon and tactel are man-made but durable and easy

b) Tencel is natural fiber
and it is used for shirt
and jeans.

15. Regenerated Cellulose Fibers
c) Viscose has soft handle,
a good drape, absorbent
and slow drying.

16. Synthetic fibers
 heat sensitive and high
temperatures in the dryer
or when ironing can cause
them melt shrink or
deform.

17. Synthetic fibers
a) polyester is a durable,
crease resistant and
easy to care fabric that
is non absorbent.

18. Synthetic fibers
b) Nylon is a non
absorbent fabric that
dry easily, very durable,
and is crease resistant.
