Handmade fabric is woven on a loom, which uses vertical warps and
horizontal wefts. The yarn spaces are not closer and it is loosely woven.
Due to this, handmade fabric does not shrink like tightly woven fabrics
produced with power spinning or power weaving processes.
For centuries people have been using looms to weave cloth. Only 300 years
ago, all cloth was made with handlooms. Today, people still make use of
handlooms to make beautiful handmade fabric.
