AALA FABRICS

 You may all be well aware of a single name when it comes to clothing, ‘cotton’. We rely so heavily on cotton for our fabric needs that cotton fabrics seem to be a thing synonymous with clothing.

In layman’s terms, we can say that it is a type of fabric that contains holes. These holes can be of any type or size, with each combination contributing to a unique type of net.

These are achieved through knitting, twisting, knotting, or looping the yarns that are being used. The type and the size of the holes are two things that play a key role in defining the properties of the net. We will see that when we discuss the types in more detail. The most common materials used for these fabrics are silk, synthetic fabrics,

If it exists at all, or there exists many, they are vague and confusing. The same is true about Satin Georgette Fabrics too, as you do not easily get what type of fabric this is. Is it satin or georgette, or both? If you keep on reading till the end, I assure you that you will get this mystery solved forever. Fabric may have many names and these names might indicate the weave used in the formation of it, or the source material it is made of, or the designer who first introduced that cloth. It is a bit confusing but their textile industry is not a discipline like chemistry or biology, who have their own nomenclatures and are definite in naming different entities.
