Fabric

A textile or cloth is a flexible woven material consisting of a network of natural or artificial fibres often referred to as thread or yarn. Yarn is produced by spinning raw fibres of wool, flax, cotton, or other material to produce long strands. Textiles are formed by weaving, knitting, crocheting, knotting, or pressing fibres together (felt).

Famous quotes containing the word fabric:

    Men may die, but the fabric of our free institutions remains unshaken.
    Chester A. Arthur (1829–1886)

    We have seen that men are learning that work, productivity, and marriage may be very important parts of life, but they are not its whole cloth. The rest of the fabric is made of nurturing relationships, especially those with children—relationships which are intimate, trusting, humane, complex, and full of care.
    Kyle D. Pruett (20th century)

    The fabric of my faithful love
    No power shall dim or ravel
    Whilst I stay here—but oh, my dear,
    If I should ever travel!
    Edna St. Vincent Millay (1892–1950)
