Humanities in fabrics

Expressions that connect fabrics to human emotions and qualities exist in many languages: a ‘velvety voice’ brings up associations with smoothness and allure, whereas calling someone ‘een zijen sok’ (‘a silk sock’) in Dutch brings to mind a rather spineless person. I think that emotions and fabrics are interconnected because emotions and touch are: for example, insufficient skin contact between mothers and their babies can create fear and anxiety in babies. Touch is the first sense we develop: even a foetus starts touching its mother’s womb in the first eight weeks of his unborn life. Dubinsky, Dana. Baby sensory development: Touch
