Summary<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Clothing is very important to human beings. The importance of clothes are<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  • They protect from cold<\/li>
  • They make us look nice and decent.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    FIBRE<\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

    A material which is available in the form of thin and continuous strand is called fibre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    There are of two types of fibres<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    1)Natural Fibres<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    2)Man made or synthetic Fibres.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Types of natural Fibres<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

    1)Plant Fibres:-<\/strong><\/span>The Fibres which are obtained from plants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Example: Cotton, Jute, Flex etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    2)Animal Fibres-<\/span><\/strong>The Fibres which are obtained from animals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

    Example : Silk, Wool etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Wool and its Sources<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

    Wool is obtained from the fleece( hair) of sheep, yak, Angora goat, Camels, Lama, Alpaca.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    PROCESSING OF WOOL<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

    The processing of changing fleece into wool involves following six steps<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    1.Shearing:<\/strong><\/span>fleece of the sheep along with a thin layer of skin is removed from its body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    2.Scouring:<\/strong><\/span>sheered hair is cleaned and washed in tanks to remove grease, dust and dirt .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    3.Sorting:<\/span><\/strong>cleaned hair is sent to a factory where hair of different textures are separated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    4.Burrs separation:<\/span><\/strong>the small pluffy Fibres are picked out from the hair. Hair is sent into a carding machine where the loose wool Fibres are combed into a sheet and then twisted into a rope.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    5.Dyeing:<\/span><\/strong>This rope is twisted and stretched into a yarn and dyed in various colors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    6.Spinning.<\/span><\/strong>The yarn is wound to form balls of wool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    SILK and its sources<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

    Silk is obtained from the cocoons of the silkworms.The Silkworms worm lives on the leaves of the mulberry plants.The rearing of silkworms is called as SERICULTURE.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    THE LIFE CYCLE OF SILK MOTH<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

    The process of obtaining silk from silk moth are follows<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    1<\/span>.Rearing<\/span><\/strong> of silkworms<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    2. Reeling<\/span><\/strong> : the process of taking out the silk thread from the cocoon.this is done by machines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    3.Dyeing<\/span><\/strong> :the silk fibres are then dyed in different colours<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    4. Spinning and weaving<\/span><\/strong> \u2013the silk fibres are then spun into threads and woven into different types of silk cloth.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
