I was browsing a high street shop this weekend when I picked up a top on the sale rack. I did my ususal fibre content check (I'm just not paying any money at all for acrylic, no way.) the said top was Cupro, little used and I decided to check what the assistant knew, I asked her what cupro was and she said with huge confidence that it was a type of coated cotton. Naturally I placed it back on the rail and left silently, inwardly bemoaning the lack of textiles knowledge in the world.
Maybe I will go over regenerated fibres again with my A-level class on Monday............
