Cotton is a natural fibre valued for its breathability, softness and durability. Comfortable across a wide range of climates, it is one of the most widely used fibres in clothing and can be woven into fabrics ranging from crisp poplin to soft jersey.

Cable knit is a knitted construction featuring raised, twisted or braided motifs created by crossing stitches. The cables form a distinctly three-dimensional surface and are usually set against a flatter knitted background. It is particularly common in substantial sweaters and traditional knitwear.
