Textile fibers fall into three main categories: natural, man-made and synthetic. Natural fibers, such as cotton and wool, offer comfort and breathability, while man-made fibers, such as viscose, are distinguished by their shine and softness. Synthetic fibers, such as polyester, are appreciated for their strength and easy care, but lack breathability.

It is difficult when you start to know all the characteristics of a fabric, there are so many fibers, so many frames that you get lost easily.
