There are small differences between polyester and nylon yarn. While they are both made synthetically, there are some options to make polyester from plants. They also both have a very soft and smooth texture, but Nylon has a silkier texture, where as polyester has more of a fiber feeling. Nylon is slightly heavier than polyester, and has a more natural feel. Clothing made from nylon is more resistant to abrasion, fungi, insects, chemicals, and even mildew. Clothing made from polyester tend to be more durable and wrinkle resistant. When heated, nylon melts, and polyester shrinks. Nylon also catches fire before polyester under extreme heat.

cotton and wool are both natural products but come from different places. Cotton comes from a cotton plant and wool comes from sheep.

When you look through the microscope with the wool thread underneath, the wool thread looks like pieces of hair...plastic hair. And Nylon threads looks like just pieces of smooth hair.
