Is Calico a woven fabric or is it a knitted fabric?
Calico is a woven fabric. It is made from cotton that is unbleached. This unbleached cotton usually has not been treated much. This means that the fabric has little black specks of seed and is quite stiff. Washing the fabric will soften it, remove the seeds and also cause the fabric to shrink quite a bit.
Why do you need water softening?
there is chalk (CaCo3) in the water, which makes the water "hard"... i.e. if you wash your clothes, the fabric becomes stiff. But adding an agent to the chalky water will "soften" it, this means that the chalk will chemically be removed.
