1. A method of predicting fabric features, comprising:
inputting first fabric physical information of a first fabric that has been produced;
performing measurements of first fabric feature values of the first fabric by a fabric touch tester;
performing a first calculation on the first fabric physical information and the first fabric feature values;
generating feature parameters and first predicted feature values of the first fabric by the first calculation, wherein the first predicted feature values comprise a first predicted smoothness, a first predicted softness, and first predicted warmth of the first fabric;
inputting second fabric desired information of a second fabric that has not been produced; and
generating second predicted feature values of the second fabric according to the second fabric desired information and the feature parameters of the first fabric,
wherein the second predicted feature values comprise a second predicted softness of the second fabric, the second predicted softness is equal to C1+X1×Z1+X2×Z2+X3×Z3, C1 is a constant term, X1, X2 and X3 are coefficients, and Z1, Z2 and Z3 are the feature parameters.
