Education in textiles

I think that’s what I seek anyway. Got so many questions about fabric durability, strength, air permeability, etc. I know precious little about correct terminology, too. Then finding vendors for related items, specifically bolts of mesh or waterproof fabric.

Anyone care to enlighten me?

Seattle Fabrics is another and has great info on types of fabrics, Brand Names (i.e. Goretex) vs “generic” etc. Also lots of notions

Thank you so much.
I love CoTH.
