Advantages of Cotton 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. It is not only a trend, or a kind of blind love with this plant, which is referred to as Gossypium in botanical language, but the ease and comforts the lend to your body when put on. They are strong enough, wick moisture well, are soft to touch, and make you think that you are being soothed.



So, we can conclude with a little effort and a bit of insight, and it is not rocket science to understand, that these fabrics have got into our lives not as a custom, but for their practical values that are distinct from other fabrics.  Moreover, we also find that these are cheap to grow and buy, and are enough for the most of fabric needs of homo sapiens, as they have remained throughout history.

 

Below will be a brief review of the potential benefits that this excellent fabric can render to you, and the reasons for its popularity and being loved and admired.

 

Moisture retaining qualities

 

It is probably the number one fabric that can absorb moisture well without being damp or wet. We have estimated, and researchers have shown, that this fabric can absorb more than one fifth of its body weight without being moist or damp. It is an excellent quality that makes it particularly suitable for use in sportswear, undergarments, and lingerie, etc.

 

So, it will absorb moisture from your body on a regular basis without you realizing that, making you feel comfortable and happy. It does not let sweat build up between it and your skin and soaks it immediately. Such an excellent fabric to wear when you are doing some intensive outdoor activity.

 

Protection

 

It gives your body an excellent amount of protection, and above all, creates a sense of protection in you when you are in some hyperthermal area. No matter whether it is cold or summer, it traps the air between it and your skin, thus holding it as an insulator to protect you from extreme heat or cold.

 

Comfort

 

You will never see a fabric that can exceed cotton fabrics in comfort. It is a kind of fabric that cushions against your body and give it a soft feel. Moreover, it is suitable for every person alike whether he is a patient who is extremely ill or an athlete who is engaged in an intensive exercise. You see that this fabric is often used in bandages and other medical dressings, for the comfort and soothing it can lend to your body. It does not cause allergies or any such reaction, so it is safe for every sort of person on earth. It is a truly universal fabric indeed.

 

The final verdict

 

Keeping in view the qualities of cotton fabrics, we can say that it is a type of universal and evergreen fabric, especially due to its dominance. On the other hand, we have an unparalleled feel of comfort when we use these fabrics, making it a fabric of choice when we have to consider the utility that fabric can provide.

Net Fabrics and their Different Types

 What comes to your mind when you see the umbrella term ‘ net fabrics ’ ? This term refers to a general mixture of open mesh fabrics. 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. The shape of the holes may be diagonal, tetrahedral, hexagonal, or octagonal. It is the whole industry of design and art that determines its shape.   What determines the properties of a net?   How these holes are formed is a question that must be answered first, in order to understand the qualities of these fabrics in a better way.

Is plain fabric really simple and plain?

When I had been relatively new to this field of fabric and wear, I often wondered what these materials are made up of? Where does the source material of such a diverse class of clothing come from? I was aware only of some of these source materials and they were certainly silk, cotton and one or two of synthetic materials. It was not until I read about these fabrics and particularly weaving patterns that I came to know what creates such unique and multiple varieties of so many kinds from a handful of source materials. It was the weaving patterns and not the source materials that contributed to such a rich supply of different types of clothing. Plain weave is one of those simple and plain weaving patterns but the fabrics made using this type of weave are not necessarily simple and plain  fabrics .   Difference between fibre and fabric:   The very first thing to understand is that fibre and fabric are two separate things. Fibre is what a final product or cloth made ...
