NATURAL FABRICS

NATURAL FABRICS are created from fibers of animals coats, silkworm cocoons, and plants' seeds, leaves, and stems. Click on the natural fiber below for information on each fiber and their weaves.

Wool - Fibers from animal coats: Sheep, goats, rabbits, alpacas, llama...
Cotton - Fibers from the cotton plant’s seed pod
Silk - Fibers from the cocoon of the silkworm
Linen - Linen is from flax, a bast fiber taken from the stalk of the plant
Hemp, Ramie, and Jute - All of these are similar to linen but the plants are processed slightly differently.
