The Fabric Guide (PDF)

Lisa Routa’s fabric guide for US shoppers: how to read a clothing label (fiber content, care instructions, country of origin, RN number), the US care symbols for washing, bleaching, drying, ironing and professional cleaning, and the three fiber families (natural, regenerated cellulose, synthetic).

24 fibers, one page each: what they feel like, how long they last, their environmental impact, whether they are vegan and how to care for them. Then 35 fabrics to know, with their possible fibers.
