Abstract: An Idea For Developing Trendy Garments In Different Material Jute is a long, soft, shiny vegetable fiber that can be spun into coarse, strong threads. It is produced primarily from plants in the genus Corchorus, which was once classified with the family Tiliaceae, and more recently with Malvaceae. The primary source of the fiber is Corchorusolitorius, but it is considered inferior to Corchoruscapsularis."Jute" is the name of the plant or fiber used to make burlap, hessian or gunny cloth. Jute is one of the most affordable natural fibers, and second only to cotton in the amount produced and variety of uses. Jute fibers are composed primarily of the plant materials cellulose and lignin. It falls into the bast fiber category (fiber collected from bast, the phloem of the plant, sometimes called the "skin") along with kenaf, industrial hemp, flax (linen), ramie, etc. The industrial term for jute fiber is raw jute. The fibers are off-white to brown, and 1–4 metres (3–13 feet) long. Jute is also called the golden fiber for its color and high cash value. Cultivation. Jute A Jute field in Bangladesh. Uses Making twine, rope, and matting are among its uses. In combination with sugar, the possibility of using jute to build aeroplane panels has been considered. Jute is in great demand due to its cheapness, softness, length, lustre and uniformity of its fiber. It is called the 'brown paper bag' as it is also the most used product in gunny sacks to store rice, wheat, grains, etc. It is also called the 'golden fiber' due to its versatile nature.Fibers Volume 9 Issue 1 2020 799 http://infokara.com/ INFOKARA RESEARCH ISSN NO: 1021-9056 Jute has many advantages as a home textile, either replacing cotton or blending with it. It is a strong, durable, color and light-fast fiber. Its UV protection, sound and heat insulation, low thermal conduction and anti-static properties make it a wise choice in home décor. Also, fabrics made of jute fibers are carbon-dioxide neutral and naturally decomposable. These properties are also why jute can be used in high performance technical textiles. Moreover, jute can be grown in 4–6 months with a huge amount of cellulose being produced from the jute hurd (inner woody core or parenchyma of the jute stem) that can meet most of the wood needs of the world. Jute is the major crop among others that is able to protect deforestation by industrialisation Thus, jute is the most environment-friendly fiber starting from the seed to expired fiber, as the expired fibers can be recycled more than once. BENEFITS: Jute fabric presents a lot of benefits due to its wonderful property, pollution free environment and especially contributes to a sustainable development. This biodegradable material has a high moisture retention capacity and fire resistant properties too. It is usually used as geotextile. 1. Cleansing the Air Studies have shown that 1 hectare of jute cultivation can absorb up to 15 tons of carbon dioxide and release 11 tons of oxygen during the jute growing process (about 100 days) a benefit for our environment and planet, for a green and sustainable development. 2. Reducing Environmental Pollution Jute fabric is the best alternative to stop toxic wastes. Plastic bags are being substituted by jute bags, to prevent environment from pollution. Plastic bags have been effectively banned in India and in many other countries due to their harmful components. 3. Lowers the Burden From Natural Oil Reserves Plastic and poly bags are made from petroleum. Petroleum resources are depleting very fast, which results in an increase in petroleum price and inflation rate. 4. High Production Level compared to Cotton Jute has high capacity production. Jute can be harvested every 4 or 6 months and can produce between 20 and 40 tonnes per hectare. Compared to cotton, the fastest growing trees take between 10 and 14 years to mature. In addition, trees only produce between 8 to 12 tons of cotton per hectare annually. This is why jute is the best and cheaper option. Volume 9 Issue 1 2020 800 http://infokara.com/ INFOKARA RESEARCH ISSN NO: 1021-9056 5. Can Save Millions of Trees Worldwide Every year hundreds of thousands of trees are cut for paper and furniture industries. If we opt for bags and furniture made of jute, we may save millions of trees. The increasing level of awareness about the environment and the benefits of jute, leads more and more people to select jute and make their lifestyle more green and eco-friendly. Not only using jute bags, but also using craft, decorative items, footwear, carpets, clothing, webbing, handcrafts... in jute. Geotextile and jute fabrics for construction are highly requested too. Reversible garment A reversible garment is a garment that can be worn two ways. There is no true "inside out" to a reversible garment, since either way, it gives a fashionable appearance.Garments that are commonly made reversible include hats, jackets, vests, sweaters, shirts, trousers, and skirts. Reversible garments have some features unlike other types of garments, such as thicker overall fabric (since two fabric are often sewn together), buttons on both sides (in garments that have buttons), different types of stitching, and no tags. Ancient shepherds used to have reversible garments with a warm side that they would wear when the weather was cold, and a cool side when the weather was hot. A sketch of a boat neck by David Ring for the European Fashion project BOAT NECK T-SHIRT A boat neck, also called a bateau neck or Sabrina neckline, is a wide neckline that runs horizontally, front and back, almost to the shoulder points, across the collarbone. It is traditionally used in nautically inspired sweaters and knitwear but is also featured in more elegant cocktail dresses and eveningwear. The style derives from sailors blouses or sweaters, often with wide navy and white horizontal stripes. History A striped boat neck shirt was used in sailors' uniforms by the French Navy in 1858. The wide, plain neck was said to facilitate quick removal if a sailor were to fall overboard. The style was adopted by the Russians and other navies in the following years. It came into prominence in fashion in the 1920s, and was popularised by Coco Chanel in the '30s. In the '50s and '60s plain boat neck shirts were worn by artists, and became associated with beatnik culture.

Volume 9 Issue 1 2020 801 http://infokara.com/ INFOKARA RESEARCH ISSN NO: 1021-9056 Power Mesh fabric What Is Mesh Fabric? There are a few different versions of mesh fabric, but this type of fabric is typified by its lightweight heft and permeable texture. Unlike most types of fabric, which feature closely-woven textures, mesh is woven loosely, which results in thousands of tiny holes being present in each mesh garment. The idea of mesh has been around for thousands of years; for instance, every type of net in existence is made from mesh, and this material has also been used to make items like hammocks. However, it wasn't until the end of the 19th century that textile innovators started using mesh for apparel. British mill owner Lewis Haslam came up with the idea to use mesh for fabric when he was out for a walk with his aunt in cold weather. He noticed that her gloves were riddled with holes, but when he questioned her about them, she maintained that her hands were still warm. How Much Does Mesh Fabric Cost? The price of mesh fabric depends both on the type of material that is used and the style of mesh that is woven. For instance, undyed mesh that is woven in a simple square pattern is relatively inexpensive, but brightly-dyed mesh that is woven in a hexagonal Tulle pattern costs more to make, so it is more expensive to garment producers and the end consumer. If a certain type of mesh, such as Tulle, is made from silk, it will cost more than mesh fabric made from a synthetic material. However, nylon and polyester are roughly equal in price. It's also important to remember that purchasing mesh fabric from a factory in a Western nation may cost more than buying mesh from China, India, Pakistan, or Indonesia. How Is Mesh Fabric Made? Mesh fabric is made with a variety of different techniques depending on the type of fiber from which it is composed. While nylon and polyester are very similar in a number of ways, polyester was developed a few decades after nylon, which means that the production of this synthetic material follows significantly more advanced manufacturing processes. Though the processes used to make these two types of fabric fibers differ, for each type of fiber, the process begins with the refining of petroleum oil.

Abstract. Transformable fashion is one of the appropriate alternatives to reduce consumption and reinforce consumers to engage in sustainable lifestyle. Transformable fashion can be basically defined as a garment that can be comfortably worn in multiple ways. A reversible garment is a type of transformable fashion which can be worn two ways. Transformable woman’s garments belong to the chains of transformations which might include different types of garments. All of them might be made of different fabrics, and they might meet to different quality requirements. Furthermore reversible garment has no true "inside out", and that is why each side must have some lining properties. The main purpose of this research is to obtain recommended value ranges of the fabrics properties for reversible garments in order to meet all of quality requirements. As input data for the research the value ranges of specific parameters of the different types of fabrics' properties were used. But at present we have no detailed knowledge about some of properties. That is why we proposed to evaluate the fabric smoothness by measuring fabric surface roughness characteristics. Thus, the recommended ranges of materials’ properties for reversible garments were obtained as an intersection of the uncountable sets determine the value ranges of specific parameters of the materials’ properties for different garments types and lining.

These can be used as a base for specialized cast ons, to add sections seamlessly at the bottom of your knitting, or to join the top and bottom edge to make a seamless tube. You'll practice five different provisional cast ons to see which you find most effective, and five different implementations: adding a border, making a hem, joining top and bottom edges seamlessly, working from the center out so both ends match in a shawl or scarf and creating a tubular cast on. (3 hours – limited to 20 students) Reversible Borders - Sometimes you want the inside of your garment to look just as good as the outside: when the front of a cardigan is worn open, when a collar is turned back to form lapels, when you want to create a truly reversible garment, or when you need to enclose cut edges of knitted or handwoven fabrics. Try out three different approaches to borders that create as neat a finish on the inside as on the outside: doubled borders, tubular borders, and bindings. For each of these construction techniques we'll use a different method of picking up stitches and there will be plenty of opportunities to discuss variations and applications to special situations. (3 hours – limited to 20 students) Bind Offs for All Occasions - Bored using the same old bind off? Does it look too tight or just plain ugly? Learn bind offs to use when shaping or seaming, to make gathers or add fringes, in textured patterns, cables and multiple colors.
