The cellulose is dissolved in caustic soda and left to age for a couple of days. From there, carbon sulfide is added to the mix to create xanthate, a pulpy, yellowish substance. Xanthate is then forced through tiny holes (spinnerets), with the resulting products dropping directly into a sulfuric acid bath that solidifies them into fibers. Lastly, those fibers are spun into threads or yarns, which can be dyed or further treated to fit different applications. 

Cotton is a natural fiber that comes from the cotton plant. It is known for its breathability, strength, and durability. Cotton fabric can be very soft or very stiff depending on the type of weave used. It is often used in t-shirts, jeans, bedding, towels, and other everyday items.
