Answer 1

Answer:

The process of making a cotton shirt is-

Picking→Ginning→Spinning→Weaving→Sewing

i. Picking- Cotton bolls are picked up from the plants in the fields by hand.

ii. Ginning- Separation of fibres from seeds by combining.

iii. Spinning- Fibres are extracted out from the big cotton wool and are twisted. This changes the fibres into a strong yarn.

iv. Weaving- A fabric of cotton is made after the arrangement of two sets of cotton yarns. It is done on looms.

v. Sewing or stitching- The cotton fabric is stitched into a shirt.

Answer 2

A cotton shirt, before it reaches you, completes a long journey. Elaborate this journey starting from cotton bolls. In spinning processes, the fibres from a mass of cotton wool are drawn out and twisted.

This brings the fibres together to form a long and twisted thread called 'yarn'.
