Yarns and textiles are the basis for most fashion clothes.

Carding machine. Unlocks and aligns lumps of fibers before being passed on to other processes to produce different yarns, be it wool, felt, etc.
When you mention silk, it denotes luxury. I love silk, love the feel of it, and also it is just pleasing to look at as a fabric or a garment. This fabric is used by a lot of top designers.

Fabric & Print samples
As a believer in sustainable fashion, I made my own yarns for my new spring/summer 2011 collection, "Jungle Paradise". I used the traditional Indian technique by twisting these yarn into ropes.
