Best Answer

Cotton has various characteristics, some positive and some a little negative. I'm assuming you mean the fabric cotton and not the plant. It is a natural fabric made from the cotton plant fibers. It softens more and more with each washing and nearly always needs ironing for a fresh look. It tends to lose color after repeated washings. However, modern fabric makers can treat cotton fabric to make it more colorfast and by adding a little polyester to it, can make the colors last longer and possibly cut down or cut out the ironing time. As cotton is a soft natural fabric, it is comfortable for people with sensitive skin. It is versatile and can be spun into knitting/crocheting yarns, and "cotton knit" is the fabric for tees and many other articles of clothing.
