Maybe I'm a little "thick", but how can the right side be the side that wicks the moisture/elements? Wouldn't you want that side toward your skin, and the less "wickable" side toward the elements? I just made about 30 neck warmers (gators?) and sent them to the elementary school to have on hand for children who aren't dressed properly for the weather, and I paid no attention to which side was in/out. Darn it.

I don't think that you are "thick"! I just went back and read the article again and I can't figure WHICH side belongs next to your skin. The wording is kind of funny. Maybe I'll email the writer and see what she has to say.

Your sending the neck warmers to the school is a terrific idea. So many kids get themselves ready for school in the mornings and don't prepare for the cold weather. Bless you for thinking of them!

I'll post again if I get an answer.........

I must be thick also since it seems backwards on the instructions.

I've sent an email to the moderator/author of that site/article. Let's see what she has to say. Stay posted.........

I didn't know there was a right or wrong either.

Interesting-I don't use fleece often, but often wondered how to tell.

Most fabric is put on the bolt with the right sides together, If this is so, just put a small dot on the right side, and no prob, you are ready to go and have the right side where you want it

Thanks for getting to the bottom of this. I always have a hard time deciding what is the right side.
