Blending is a crucial skill in making the desired fabric. The cotton blend is a fabric that is made with cotton and also contains other fibers in it in a small amount. The cotton blend contains a high amount of cotton fibers and a small number of other fibers such as rayon, polyester, linen, or others.
Making cotton blends are now a trend that is to give some extra qualities to the fabric sometimes it is to provide extra shrinkage and starch feature to the fabric and sometimes to make it crisper. Blending is done before spinning to get the desired cloth. There is always a ratio in blending like 80:20, 60:40, or anything, that depends on the final qualities we want in a fabric.
