We are starting to find out about fabrics and fibres. Some of the questions we're finding answers to are:

• When did people first start knitting?
• Do fabrics cause pollution?
• Is polyester a new or old fabric? Where does it come from?
• How is coal and oil used to make fabric?
• How does cotton ‘fluff’ become thread? How does it become fabric?
• Is leather a fabric? How long has leather been around for?
• Where are some fabrics made?
• What was the first fabric made?
• What are the names of fabrics?
• Who was the first to make nylon? When? How?
• How does fabric keep you warm?
• What can fabrics be made into?
• How do people make alpaca?
• What’s the best fabric to keep water out? To keep you warm?
