A History of Textiles, Fabrics, and Cloth

15 min • 18 juli 2024

I would say that there is a very good chance that almost everyone listening to the sound of my voice right now is wearing something made of cloth.

Learn more about cloth, textiles, and fabrics, their origin, and how they’ve changed throughout history on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
