Why can you see through cloth when it’s right up to your face, but much less so when it’s farther away ?
In: Physics
This is true with anything with lots of holes, like woven materials or screens. When they are close to your eye the holes appear bigger therefor easier to see through. Make a tiny hole with your fingertips then try to look through it at arms length then right up to your face. Then imagine that times the thousands of threads that make up cloth.
