6. Manufacturing Process Cotton Cotton is a natural fibre that comes from a cotton plant The cotton plant has flowers which become cotton bolls Cotton bolls are harvested by machines Cotton is separated and pressed into bails Cotton is then ready to be blended with polyester Or processed into yarn and then fabric

7. Manufacturing Process Polyester Fleece Polyester is made from chemical called polymer Polymer liquid is forced through tiny holes in a metal disc and it becomes strings on contact with air Polyester is then baled The bails are then made into yarns The yarns are now ready to be knitted into fabric by a knitting machine The fabric is then sprayed with a waterproof material

8. Manufacturing Process Blending cotton and polyester Both polyester and cotton bobbins are brought to an upright machine called a tablet weaver. The weaver causes the different threads to twist together after being drawn to create a single thread The finished cotton-poly bobbin is then sent to a loom to be woven into cloth.
