It does bother some people to mix pure cottons fabric with "blends" -
As long as one is aware of what one is doing - - -
I checked the tags again just to be sure, but they all came from the same company and can be washed the same way. Her dad took excellent care of his clothes, we found some sweaters that are probably pre-1980s and they look like they just came off of the rack. No snags, no holes, no stains, no color fade. I also knit when I can, whatever sweaters are too small, I'm going to unravel and use the yarn for something else.
See, this is why I love this forum so much and everyone that is here - all of you have asked questions that I never would have thought about in a million years. All the sites you've given me are definite rabbit holes, I'm going to have to be careful when I cruise them or I'll lose a day or two in them, lol. I certainly didn't know that most men's shirts are made with that much fabric, I've definitely got enough with these four to make a queen-size quilt!
