A silk blend ballistic fabric for creating comfortable and flexible bulletproof apparel includes a plurality of silk threads and a plurality of para-aramid fiber threads interwoven with the plurality of silk threads to create a fabric. An alternative embodiment of the disclosure generally comprises a hybrid thread comprising a silk thread and a para-aramid fiber thread twisted with the silk thread. The resulting hybrid thread can be woven to create the fabric. The resulting fabric is bulletproof and substantially flexible to create articles of clothing such as, but not limited to, trousers, shirts, and the like.

This disclosure relates generally to the preparation of eco-friendly engineered fabric, and more particularly to terry fabric and variations thereof. In one embodiment, a terry fabric is comprised of a soluble fiber blend, blended with cotton fibers, where the soluble fibers are dissolved in a caustic or enzyme solution to create highly porous yarns.

A method of manufacturing a speaker diaphragm fabric for a loudspeaker, includes: a preparation step, a plurality of first warps, at least one second warp and a plurality of wefts are prepared, wherein the second warp has characteristics different from the first warps; and a weaving step: the plurality of the first warps and the second warps are aligned and the wefts transversely cross and pass alternately over and under each of the first warps and the second warps in order to form the speaker diaphragm fabric having at least one formation region and a non-formation region exterior to the formation region. The second warps made from an inferior material are provided at the non-formation region, thereby reducing the waste cost and facilitating the differentiation of the formation region and the non-formation region.

Described are spider silk articles of wear. The article of wear, which may be apparel or shoes, includes an inner surface, wherein the inner surface includes an area including spider silk. The spider silk of the article of wear may be arranged to contact the skin of a wearer when the article of wear is worn.
