                                        \nHow do you make a mat with coconut leaves?
                                        \nAnswer:<\/p>\n

                                          \n
                                        • Take coconut leaves or two colour paper strips.<\/li>\n
                                        • Cut and remove the middle vein of the leaf to get two halves.<\/li>\n
                                        • Now put these strips parallel to each other.<\/li>\n
                                        • Take one more strips and insert horizontally and alternately between the vertical strips.<\/li>\n
                                        • Finally, you will get a sheet-like structure. This is the way a mat is prepared.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                                          Question 5.
                                          \nWhat do you observe in gunny yarn? Compare Jute yarn with other yarns?
                                          \nAnswer:<\/p>\n

                                            \n
                                          • Collect gunny bags, pull out the threads from the bag and observe under magnifying lens.<\/li>\n
                                          • We will see strands of yarn.<\/li>\n
                                          • We can compare these fibres with cotton fibres.<\/li>\n
                                          • In the same way fibre is made from Red sorrel (Gongura) and bamboo.<\/li>\n
                                          • Hemp and flax also plant fibres that are used in making clothes but in smaller quantities as compared to cotton.<\/li>\n
                                          • Like cotton, jute yarn is also useful in making fabric.<\/li>\n
                                          • It is also called Golden fabric.<\/li>\n
                                          • Jute fabrics is not the same as cotton fabric. It is harder, stronger and rougher.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
