    What's your favorite fabric (an old tee, a fuzzy rug, or silk blouse) and why? One answer is that it depends on the fiber composition. You will discover you love beans, kidneys, and dog bones, but might not like the circles, stars, and multilobes. In the end, you'll realize fabric's function from fibers. And, when it comes to fibers, shape and size matters!
