[QUOTE=KarinTimour;205131]Just because it was a very common, ordinary, "go-to" fabric doesn't mean that no one saved any of it -- but it might mean having to dig a bit to find where it is. Trust me -- I've spent years looking for surviving socks. Quick show of hands -- how many of you are veterans? How many of you saved a pair of worn socks that you're planning to donate to an archive? Thought so. =QUOTE]

I've got a chest full of "clothes that need to be thrown away" (as my wife puts it) upstairs in the attic. Glad to see I'm not actually a hoarder.
