When you look through a sheer curtain at a distant street lamp, you see a pattern of colored spots of light. This occurs by

◦
polarization of light in scattering and partial absorption by the threads.

◦
interference of light waves that pass through the threads with light waves that pass through the openings between the threads.

◦
refraction of light waves differentially in the cylindrical threads.

◦
diffraction of light waves passing through the two dimensional pattern of openings between the threads.

◦
reflection of light waves by the sides of the threads.
