Tickeling Your Knowledgebone - Satin

Few people are actually aware that satin is a special kind of weave and not a type of fabric.

Satin can be woven with all kinds of yarn (silk and polyester are the most common and popular choices but for e.g. bed linen cotton is quite popular too) - it is the method and the twist of the yarn that give it its lustre and smoothness.
