It's just that you only notice them when they're eating something in your home (my home certainly, I have a moth problem, god knows where they came from but they're a bloody nuisance).

Can you suggest how I might obtain one? <br /><br />Rayon is actually made from wood (I think) and I thought that it got popular during WWII -- will have to do some research. I would think that moths would wolf it down -- on the other hand why does a fleece on the sheep not get eaten by moths? I'll have to puzzle that all out!.<br /><br />Thanks -- the sweaters are spectacular.Ginnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08995557136967349805noreply@blogger.com
