Dear weaving gurus, I am hoping someone can help answer a question that popped into my head at a sourdough making class last night. The instructor used tea towels to line her proofing baskets and mentioned whatever you use needs to be lint-free (sticky dough + lint = bad combination). Naturally, I would like to make some custom towels for my bread-baking needs (obviously!), but I have absolutely no idea how lint-free towels come to be! Is it in the yarn preparation or some mysterious finishing process? Does anyone know? I use 2/8 cotton for my towels from Maurice Brassard and I certainly vacuum out plenty of lint bunnies from under my loom every now and then, so I would go ahead and say those towels are not lint-free. Is there a different kind of cotton I should be using? Is it even possible with cotton? Is linen lint-free? Would love some help figuring this out! Please and thank you in advance.
