My first three are a less comfortable version of a bed. Usually more basic, and more associated with non permanent accommodations. My last three are very heavy. Or not, if backwards. All together, I’m one of the more common textiles found in clothing. If its made with only me, you’ll definitely see it mentioned on the label!

I gather terms and keep them in play. Without me, the order breaks the rules. On the field, I set who faces who, a quiet frame for every matchup. Numbers lean on me, teams trust me.

Knowledge I impart, Sometimes solely from the heart, Other times it's from the mind, I'm finished with the bind

Several things can do me, such as thunder, hands, or cheeks Accompanied by whistles, cheers, excited joyful shrieks

Shell of stone with tongue of silk, I hide a secret none can milk. I open only when I choose, Guarding pearls the oceans bruise. Silent at the water’s rim Name what I am, tight-locked and slim.
