Fibres and fabrics.: RG31-1/7-1975E-PDF

"Consumers in the marketplace of the 1970's cannot help but see the impact that textiles, both old and new, have on the life styles of Canadians. Textiles offer us an infinite range of colour, variety and serviceability. They provide pleasure, comfort and decoration, and it is small wonder that choices are sometimes difficult. This booklet is designed to help consumers who are confused by the choices available to them. It describes the properties, methods of care and major uses of those textile fibres which are offered for sale to the Canadian consumer. It also describes an informative Care Labelling scheme which has been developed, and contains some basic information on fabric construction"--Introduction, page 4.
