Cotton weaving is the process of creating textiles by interlacing cotton fibers together. It involves using a loom to create patterns and designs with threads made from cotton.
Imagine cotton weaving as building a puzzle with colorful blocks. Each block represents a thread, and when they are woven together, they form a beautiful picture.
