Textiles are materials made from fibers that can be woven, knitted, or otherwise manufactured to create fabric. They are used in a wide range of products, from clothing to upholstery to industrial applications.
Woven fabrics are created by interlacing two sets of yarn at right angles to each other, forming a grid-like structure. Knitted fabrics, on the other hand, are made by interlocking loops of yarn. Knits tend to be more stretchy and comfortable, while wovens are typically stronger and more structured.
