What Is Fabric? Simply put, fabric is what you get when a textile has been further processed into a usable material. It’s the result of weaving (woven fabrics), knitting (knitted fabrics), or bonding (non woven fabrics) textile materials together to form a product of specific use, often getting through extra finishing and treatments. Besides, a fabric is frequently the finished product ready to be cut, sewn, and fashioned into garments, home textiles, or other things useful. If you‘ve visited a fabric store, sourcing materials ready to make into a project, fabric is what you hold in your hand. In the store, you’ll find fabric comes in many varieties based on its structures and compositions. Let’s take a look at the common types and examples of fabric using structure as the benchmark (=standard): Woven fabrics (satin, chiffon, and georgette ) . Created by interlacing two kinds of yarns at certain angles. Knitted fabrics ( jersey, ribbed knit, and ponte ). Made by looping yarns ...

  When an individual, organisation or country borrows money , goods, or property, the lender will usually want to make financial gain from giving them the money for that period, especially because they’re offering it as support to others, rather than investing it to generate income (=earn money). That is, they charge (=to ask an amount of money) the borrower for the use of an asset (=a useful or valuable thing). And so, they will apply an interest rate to the loan which they are supplying. An interest rate is the proportion of a loan that is charged in addition to the money they borrow, expressed as a percentage of the outstanding loan. Typically, interest rates are calculated on an annual basis (=every year) and are therefore referred to as the annual percentage rate (APR) . Interest rates apply to most lending transactions; from mortgage (= borrowing money to purchase homes), launching a business, or even paying for university tuition fees - most of us will take out a ...
