Fiber content, or composition, names the fibres in a cloth and, when published, their shares. Cotton, linen, silk, wool, viscose and polyester are different claims. A blend is not a single-fibre cloth with a marketing nickname.

Why fiber content changes the brief
Care, dye, hand and price expectations follow composition. A sourcing inquiry that says natural without a fibre is too vague to match.
Use the composition line on the FabStitch fabric page as the fact. If a percentage is not published, do not invent one in a comparison or a customer note.
Using fiber content on a real cloth
Choose the fibre that matches the brief, then confirm the construction. A cotton twill and a cotton jersey are both cotton and still different cloths.
Rayon and viscose language overlaps in the market. Read the wording on the page rather than swapping the names yourself.
What to avoid with fiber content
Rayon and viscose language overlaps in the market. Read the wording on the page rather than swapping the names yourself.
Choose the fibre that matches the brief, then confirm the construction. A cotton twill and a cotton jersey are both cotton and still different cloths.
Keep the decision tied to fiber content, not to a swapped synonym.
Use only specs published on the fabric page.
Inquire with quantity and end use when a cloth matches.
Frequently asked questions
What if a percentage is missing?
Treat the composition as incomplete. Do not guess the share, and ask in the inquiry if the share matters to the brief.

Open the marketplace or a related collection, compare the specs that are actually published, and inquire when a cloth matches the brief.
