Re: Search for natural fibers

I'm not a fan of linen (love the look, hate the wrinkles) or silk (too slippery & hot for me), but I love most any other natural fiber, even wool (I know, I know--hot) in some situations. I do like a little elastomer in cottons for stretch and wrinkle resistance. One of my favorite natural fibers that I've discovered in recent years is bamboo-- cool, lightweight and breathable! And so, so soft. I also like lyocell (Tencel), which is made from wood pulp (cellulose). Comfy & soft. {#emotions_dlg.thumbup}

I can't say I have a favorite go-to source or brand for natural fibers though; it entirely depends on the particular garment as to whether I like it.
