Findings show that cotton was known in Central America as early as 5000 BC.
The first cotton fabrics came to Europe in the 2nd century.
Virtually the entire cotton plant is used - fibres, seeds and stems.
Domestic sheep wool is the most common wool in most parts of the world.
Wool has a unique ability to regulate body temperature.
Wool is biodegradable and can be composted.
Flax requires little fertiliser and is resistant to disease and therefore does not need to be sprayed.
Flax can be grown in cool, rainy climates and blooms in June-August.
Carl Linnaeus named flax Linum usitatissium, 'the most useful of all'.
