Cotton
The lengths and thicknesses of these fibers generally vary. The fibers are absorbent. This feature is a
very important factor that makes it very soft and extremely comfortable to wear. It is widely
preferred in regions with a hot climate because it keeps it cool.
The best quality cotton, such as Egyptian and Sea Island cottons, is obtained from long, thin and shiny
yarns. Cotton is used extensively in various weavings, from light and loosely knitted fine fabrics to very
heavy and pile fabrics such as velvet, both in terms of weight and quality.
