Let's talk textiles
Just like you can spin a tale a hundred different ways, cotton is spun and woven into a wide variety of fabrics, each with their own unique properties. Here are some of the fabrics you can expect to be made with HomeGrown Cotton.
As crisp and cool as an autumn day, percale is defined by an ultra-breathable weave that feels comfortable in any weather. With a casual, no-sheen finish, it can also be a bit more prone to wrinkles. Percale is not to be confused with linen, which is actually made of flax, not cotton.
Nothing feels like flannel. Made with a unique brushed technique, this weave is soft to the point of plushness and perfect for flannel shirts, light blankets, bed sheets, and pajamas. Flannel can also be made of wool or synthetic fibers - but we think cotton is the way to go for that ultimate cozy feeling.
With the possible exceptions of apple pie and baseball, it doesn’t get more American than denim. The same sturdy warp-faced fabric that protected goldrushers’ knees back in the 1800s is now used for all kinds of applications, from shirts to jackets to pillow covers. But it all comes back to iconic American jeans, reinforced with rivets and dyed with indigo. They’re the hardworking pants that built modern America, not to mention American rock and roll.
Farmers grow two types of cotton in these United States. Both soft. Both strong. Both all-American. Here’s how to tell them apart.
