Posts: 12As you may know, Intercals' been advertising mohair with nap reversal, but there isn't a picture of it. What exactly in nap reversal, and how does it affect bear construction?
Cheektowaga, New YorkHello!
Nap reversal is generally not a problem! The nap of a fabric is the direction that the fur was woven in the backing. Reversal of the nap just means that the nap is going in the opposite direction that it was woven. To fix, you can just dampen the fur and brush in the right direction or steam the area!
Hope I helped!

Posts: 12Thanks! Since it's on sale for $39.95 a yard, it may be worth playing with! I've been wanting something to do natural dyeing with (I did a bunch of skeins of yarn for my sister for Xmas and have lots of supplies left over; everything from indigo to cochineal)- that would be fun!
Cheektowaga, New YorkOh yes, I purchased the same fabric before and have no problems with it! Great quality mohair for the price! If you have any questions when you receive it, just email me! Love to Help if I Can!!

I'm going to check this out - even with postage costs to the UK it is really cheap. Plenty to play around with - i can try out new dying technics and if it goes wrong - who cares
