Cotton fibre is natural fibre. The cotton plant bears fruits called as cotton bolls. The bolls are full of seeds and cotton fibre.
*Cotton bolls ripe and open to expose cotton. The collection of cotton bolls is done by hand picking.
*Cotton bolls are separated from the seeds by combing them. This is known as ginning.
*Cotton collected after ginning is in the form of fibres.
*Cotton yarn is made from cotton fibres.
*Yarn is spun on charka to make cotton thred.
*Cotton threads dyed with colours by the proces of dyeing.
*Dyed threads are wound on reels by the process of reeling.
*Reeled threads are woven into cloth by the process of weaving.
*Weaving is the process of arranging two sets of yarns together perpendicular to each other to make a fabric. Fabrics are woven on looms. These looms may be operated by power or by hand
