We show a new method to handle fabric using a robot. Our approach relies on a finger-tip sized (2 cm^2) electroadhesive skin to lift fabric up. A pinch-type grasp is then used to securely hold the separated sheet of fabric, enabling easy manipulation thereafter. The ability to successfully pick up and manipulate a variety of commercial fabrics with diverse materials, shapes, sizes and textures is demonstrated.
