Wool flannel

Welsh flannel was traditionally made from wool, and most European flannel types are also woolen. Until recent centuries, cotton was not as commonly used in Europe since it was primarily produced in India.

Cotton flannel

Cotton flannel became more popular during the Colonial expansionist period, and this material remains highly sought after for soft, rich flannel garments or bedsheets with napping on both sides.

Synthetic or mixed flannel

Many types of flannel on the market today are made with synthetic materials like polyester or nylon instead of natural fibers. Artificial textiles are more flammable, and they are harder on the environment.

Ceylon flannel

Originally developed in Ceylon (now Sri Lanka), this type of flannel consists of a 50/50 blend of cotton and wool.

Baby flannel

This flannel is napped on both sides and prized for its fineness. It can be made from any material that is usually used to make flannel, but wool and cotton provide the softests textures against sensitive baby skin.

Vegetable flannel

Briefly, a type of flannel made from cellulose became popular in Europe during the 19th century. Vegetable flannel lost favor after petrochemical-based fabrics became available in the 20th century.
