what is interesting is that the 80% is at the bale houses, NOT in the LQS..
most of the fabric being made right now, is being made with cotton purchased 2-3 years ago!
SO, the prices are going up because of greed mainly and to help ease the pain during the next 2 years that they know there will be a cotton shortage world wide!
Also shipping is up gas is up, utilities are up...economy is in the toilet...
