Cotton is a unique fiber in that its structure is actually
that of a little hollow tube. When the cotton is mature and dry, the tube
collapses somewhat, giving the cotton fiber a little bit of twist. Cotton
is a cellulose fiber - actually, it is the most pure natural form of cellulose.
It breathes, making it one of the most popular fibers in use today for clothing.
It is the shortest natural fiber used commercially in the textile industry,
ranging from 1/2" to 1 1/2" in length.
