I've been perplexed for a long time about the cheap quality of the fabrics used to make clothing for a long time. |

Man made fibres are partly to blame I think Lavender :-( |

It depends on the mix of fabrics - some man-made ones are good. Jumpers can be a nightmare - OH bought some cheapie acrylic ones and they bobbled straightaway - no good for anything except DIY. His merino or lambswool ones are much better. I also avoid cashmere as this bobbles naturally. |

I wash most clothes inside out and this helps to prevent many bobbles making the garment unsightly. |
