More About Textiles

Long ago, people made clothes from animal skins. Then, they found plants to make soft fibers. They learned to weave and knit to make better clothes. Now, we have lots of ways to make textiles.

Textiles are all around us. We wear them every day. They help us stay warm and dry. We also use them for fun things like toys and bags.

In the future, we may find new ways to make textiles. They might be even stronger or help us in new ways. Who knows what cool things we will make!
