Textile is a material made with natural or artificial fibres. most probably artificial fibres or yarn.Yarn is produced by spinning raw wool fibres, linen, cotton, or other material on a spinning wheel to produce long strands known as yarn.Textiles are formed by weaving, knitting, crocheting, knotting, or pressing fibres together (felt). The words fabric and cloth are commonly used in textile assembly trades (such as tailoring and dressmaker\dressmaking) as synonyms for textile. However, there are subtle differences in these terms. Textile refers to any material made of interlacing fibres. Fabric refers to any material made through weaving, knitting, crocheting, or bonding. Cloth refers to a finished piece of fabric that can be used for a purpose such as covering a bed.
The production of textiles for different uses has been with us for a millennium. It is commonly used for clothing and bags and baskets. In the household, they are generally used in upholstered furniture, curtains and drapes, towels, as covering for beds, tables as well as in arts and crafts. Outside the home textile is utilized for flag making, tents, and nets and for cleaning devices.
The textile industry is now discovering and developing new fibers, new applications, and the new procedures for producing them. Research and studies and experimentation are being done to come up with innovative fiber and textile solutions. With the innovations it makes possible new products based on these advanced fibrous materials. The industry is not lagging behind in the making, analysis, sale and end uses of fibres and fabrics. It is also inching forward to stimulate demand for a country’s natural fibres.
