The following course notes are to be used  as a supplement to notes given in lecture.  They will be updated on a regular basis.  It is a good idea to print out the notes and bring to class to use as a reference and to write information given in class.

It is advisable to print out only the section being covered during that week; technology changes in textiles frequently so the course notes will be updated to reflect new information.
Blue underlines in the body of the notes indicate a direct link to a website with valuable information.  Use these links when you are reading and studying.

     In addition to studying the following notes and quizzes, read the chapters
     and your class notes.  THE TABLE ON PAGE 30 OF YOUR TEXTBOOK
     IS VERY IMPORTANT.  For every exam, you will be expected to know the
     sub-classifications for the fibers.      Natural - natural cellulosic and natural protein
     Manufactured - regenerated, synthetic, and inorganic
