What natural fibres are used to make cloth?
|
| After the springy cotton bolls have been picked, they are taken to a ginning plant, where the seeds are removed. | Cotton is made from the soft mass of fibres that surround the seeds of the cotton plant. Linen is made from the stem fibres of the flax or linseed plant. The main animal fibres are wool from sheep and goats. Silk is made from the cocoons of a moth.
