3.Fibre
4.Yarn
5.Grey fabric
6.Finished fabric
7.Garments
Monomer: Monomer is the first steps of Textiles . It 's the little amount of molecules .

Polymer : Polymers are made by Chemically reacting a lot of little molecules together to make one long molecule , like a string of beads . This little molecules are called monomers and the long molecules are called polymers .
