Basic knowledge of children's clothing fabrics

　No matter which piece of clothing is inseparable from the fabric. Without the fabric, it is rootless wood and unbounded water. No matter how awesome designers and tailors are, they can't make clothes. Therefore, fabric can be said to be one of the three major elements of clothing. The good or bad of the fabric is directly related to the quality of the clothing, and the difference in fabric also plays a decisive role in the final style and characteristics of the clothing, which has an impact on the color and modeling effect of the garment..

　　Children's clothing, as a branch of clothing, is no exception. We know the properties and characteristics of various children's clothing fabrics well, so that we can choose the right clothing when we choose to buy clothes for children.

　　Common clothing fabrics are mainly cotton, linen, silk, woolen, chemical fiber and blended several categories. Then let's see what the characteristics of each.

　　1. Cotton cloth. Cotton cloth is one of the most common children's clothing fabrics. It is very suitable for children's skin. It is most suitable for making children's close-fitting clothes. Cotton cloth has good warmth, ease and softness, soft and close-fitting, good water absorption and breathability. Especially for infants and young children who are still in swaddling clothes, it is the best choice. However, cotton clothes also have some shortcomings. They are easy to shrink, wrinkle easily, and are not crisp enough in appearance, so they are not suitable for coats.

　　2. Linen. Linen is also one of the clothing fabrics with a long history. Linen has many characteristics similar to cotton, such as good water absorption and good air permeability. And the strength is relatively high and the thermal conductivity is relatively good. The disadvantage is that the fabric is rough and stiff. If it is in contact with human skin for a long time, it will inevitably be uncomfortable and not suitable for underwear.

　　3. Silk. Silk is a famous high-end clothing material in ancient China. Silk is characterized by being light, close-fitting, soft, breathable, smooth, colorful and glossy. After making ready-to-wear, it is noble, elegant and comfortable. The shortcomings are also obvious, it is easy to produce wrinkles, the water absorption performance is not good enough, and it is not solid enough, and it is easy to fade.

　　4. Wool. Wool is also known as wool. The texture is strong and wear-resistant, and it is not easy to wrinkle. It feels soft to the touch, has good elasticity, and has good warmth retention. The disadvantage is that it is difficult to wash.

　　5. Chemical fiber. Chemical fiber has bright color, good softness, smooth and comfortable feel. However, it is not wear-resistant, but also afraid of high temperature, can not absorb water well, breathable, etc. It is easy to deform when encountering high temperature. Chemical fiber is a relatively low-grade fabric, which is basically rarely used now.

　　6. Blending. Blending is a fabric that combines many fabrics. It has the advantages of various fabrics such as cotton, linen, silk, wool and chemical fibers. It has the advantages of good water absorption, good air permeability, and soft texture. At the same time, it avoids various fabrics as much as possible. The shortcomings of the fabric, and the cost is low, has now become one of the most widely used fabrics.
