The article discusses the role of denser knitwear fabrics in protecting the people from ultraviolet (UV) radiation. It notes that during the ancient times, people wear clothes for protection, comfort and adornment, but as of April 2010, advanced material technology turns clothing into a protection against skin cancer.
