Polyester fleece (polar fleece) is knitted. It is made in a similar way to sweatshirt material. Sweatshirt material has what is called a 'floating yarn' on one side (fleecy has these yarns on both sides), which is a yarn that only loops through the fabric infrequently so it creates loops. This side can be un-brushed (with one side like terry-towel) or it can be brushed (fuzzy on one side). This brushing technique is what makes polyester fleece so fuzzy.
Silk is a specific fiber, not a type of fabric. It is made from the fibers of the silkworm's cocoon. These fibers are produced by the silkworm's body. The fibers can be woven into many different kinds of fabric.
