Modal fabric is a cellulose fiber, created by spinning cellulose fibers from beech trees. It is a very light weight fabric similar to cotton, yet warmer than cotton, with a lovely drape. Modal is a variety of rayon, yet can be dyed just like cotton and is color fast in warm water. Garments and other items created from Modal are also 50% more absorbent than cotton, and also shrink and fade
resistant. It is smoother and softer than mercerized cotton, and can be used alone or in combination with other textiles. Modal has become a favorite of both manufacturers as well as individual crafters for use in creating anything from household linens to wonderful wearables.
