Any material made of interlacing fibers. It also refers to the yarn, threads, and wools that can be spun, woven, tufted, tied, and otherwise used to manufacture cloth.

Any material made through the various processes such as weaving, knitting, crocheting, or bonding.

It is the basic element of the textile. The fine, hair-like strand that forms the basis of a yarn.

Formed by twisting fiber to create a continuous strand.

These are long and continuous fibers, usually measured in meters or yards, laid parallel to one another and tightly twisted to produce smooth, strong yarns.

These are composed of staple fibers twisted together.

The first synthetic fiber.

This is a mixture of natural and synthetic fibers.

Probably the oldest fiber ever woven into fabric.

It is the most widely used plant fiber.

Made from banana fibers.

Also known as Abaca.

It is said to be the fiber of kings.

It is the growth of silk moths for their silk production.

Silk fabric woven from silk made by wild, uncultivated silkworms.

The only natural mineral found in fiber form.

Developed by the DuPont Co. in 1950 under the trade name Orlon.

A manufactured elastomeric fiber that can be repeatedly stretched over 500% without breaking.

What do you call a Rayon when spun and woven on the silk system, and bears resemblance to linen when spun and woven on the linen system?

This is the matting together of fibers to form a web by moisture, pressure, and heat.

The interweaving and intertwining of three or more strands of yarn or other material so that the strands pass over and under one another.

The oldest known hand-knitted fabric, discovered in an Egyptian tomb, dates from about the 4th century B.C.

A variation made of mercerized cotton. The filler yarns dominate the face of the textile.

A decorative fabric made by weaving colored weft threads alternatively over and under the warp threads to form a pictorial or ornamental design.

It is defined as a process done to fabrics, sometimes to fibers and yarns, causing them to change in appearance, texture, and performance.

These are finishes that affect the texture and appearance of the cloth.

A general finish that makes the fabric white, and impurities are removed through the use of chemicals such as peroxide or chlorine compounds.

A general finish also known as starching. The cloth is filled with starch to increase the strength, smoothness, stiffness, or weight of the fabric.

This special finish is also known as Insulated finish.

A special finish that totally coats the fabric, thus closing the pores and enabling it to shed water under all pressures.

These are soluble substances that penetrate into the fabric and are fixed by a chemical action, heat, or other treatment.

These dyes are the oldest among the artificial dyes. These are colored salts of organic bases, which are soluble in water.

These are the fastest dyes for cotton, linen, viscose, and cuprammonium rayon. They are now considered the most satisfactory of all dyestuffs.

This method of dyeing is also known as dip-dyeing. Cloth is dyed after fabrication.

Fabrics of two or more fibers is placed in a dye bath containing two or more different dyes.

These are fabric designs that are produced in the process of making the fabric.

This is the oldest method of printing designs on fabrics.

This printing creates a design, which appears on the face and back of the fabric, simulating a woven pattern.

It is the simplest method of fabric designing.

A fabric design method referred to as having a "watered appearance."

The type of leather is sometimes called full-top-grain leather. It possesses the genuine original grain of the hide.

This is leather from the skin of unborn calves. It is particularly soft and is highly valued.

This is also known as "reconstituted leather" and is composed of 90% to 100% leather fibers, bonded together with latex binders to create a look and feel similar to that of leather.

This tanning method produces a hide that is quite supple, with a limited acceptance of dyes.
