What fabric is cotton?
Fabric cotton refers to cotton fibers used in the manufacture of woven cloth and other fabrics.
It is claimed that woven fabrics are dimensionally stable why does the structure provide this physical property?
Because of the interaction of the tension in the vertical and horizontal fibers (warp and weft), the fabric produced is much less likely to stretch than for example a knitted or crocheted fabric. Take the difference between a cotton tee-shirt and a pair of cotton pants. The t-shirt is a knitted fabric and most likely cotton pants will be woven. You can easily tell how a t-shirt will stretch much more than the fabric of the pants.
How do you stretch cotton?
Cotton itself is not a stretchy fiber. Woven fabric is typically not stretchy. So no, I would not expect a cotton gauze to be stretchy unless it was a cotton blend.
Is polyester stretchy material?

Yes, cotton is known for its good flexibility and elasticity. It can stretch to some extent without losing its shape, making it a comfortable and versatile fabric for clothing.
How much will a cotton dress stretch if a stretch it when wet?
When a cotton dress is wet, it can stretch to some extent due to the fibers absorbing water and becoming more pliable. Typically, cotton can stretch up to 5-10% when wet, depending on the fabric thickness and weave. However, once dried, it usually returns to its original shape, although repeated stretching may cause some permanent deformation over time. Always handle wet cotton gently to avoid damage.

What is a cotton thread?
Cotton thread is compatible with fabric made from yarn of plant origin, such as cotton and linen, and for rayon (made from a plant substance), because it has similar shrinkage characteristics. It is not suitable for most synthetics, which do not shrink, or for fabrics treated to reduce shrinkage. Its low stretch is useful for woven fabrics, but not for knits, which require more stretch.
What is the Comparison between knitted and woven fabric?
A "knit" fabric will stretch, either side to side and/or up to down, but a "woven" fabric will not stretch.
