Fabric lovers always carry a flame

Article Abstract:

A fabric's fiber content can be determined through the burn test. Butane lighters should be used instead of matches. The fiber can be identified by observing the reaction to an approaching flame, in flame and after flame is removed. The odor and the type of ashes should also be noted.
