The link is great - Thanks.

As to a microscope - lol. But our grandmothers always spoke of the fabric hand - which is "The quality of a fabric assessed by the reaction obtained from the sense of touch". We all still do that automatically - even though the term is somewhat obsolete. The better greige goods feel nicer to the touch!!
