1. Apply textile terminology. (I)
2. Explain textile labeling laws and care regulations. (I) 3. Test and classify textile fibers according to origin, chemical and generic type, and common names. (II) 4. Classify the three methods of fiber identification and apply test methods to explain test results applied. (II) 5. Compare the properties of natural cellulosic, natural protein, manufactured regenerated, synthetic, and special use fibers, and explain the care for textile fibers. (III) 6. Select appropriate fibers and fabrics for specific end uses. (III) 7. Explain the processes used to produce yarns from staple and filament fibers. (IV) 8. Identify simple, complex, and composite yarns and explain their relationship to yarn performance. (IV) 9. Examine basic and fancy weaves and describe their strength, serviceability, use and care. (V) 10. Recognize weft and warp knits, compare their construction techniques, and relate their characteristics to appropriate end uses. (V) 11. Evaluate other fabric construction methods according to appearance, strength, serviceability, use and care. (V) 12.
