Plastic Seams
« on: November 17, 2019, 11:48 »
A few days ago, I was wearing an old T.Shirt, and it was irritating around my shoulders.    I took it off to see why and noticed that the seams were reinforced with a small plastic strip.!!!!!  I have no doubt that the garment was made around the pacific rim, and done to strengthen it, or something.
That is not very friendly, and I shall always look carefully in the future.     Has anybody else noticed this ?    Mrs Bouquet

No, but I hate those little ribbons they put on the side of the neck to hang the jumper up.
I work very hard so don't expect me to think as well.

Goosegirl I always cut them out and any plain ones I keep.
They are useful for tying up little bags of biscuits etc for charity/school fairs.  :lol:
