In this video, I do a BURN TEST on 11 different natural and manufactured fabrics, and two more tests using household chemicals. WARNING: This video is not for children! Please have adult supervision anytime you are working with fire or chemicals, and work in a well ventilated area. Please be safe! (I filmed this on a scorching hot day in July, but on any other day, I would've worn sleeves for safety!)

This is great. I knew some of this already, but I didn't know it all. I became interested in distinguishing fabric content just over a year ago when an Etsy seller sold me "100% linen" that didn't seem right. The weave wasn't quite right (too clean) and it wrinkled but not the way 100% linen wrinkles. I knew it had been cheaper, which also clued me in that I'd possibly been sold a blend. I then had to determine what was in the blend and had to confront the seller. Videos like this are so helpful in situations like that. I want to know what I'm paying for. Thank you for the great video. (The acetone and the bleach still make me nervous when they're near each other. The fumes of bleach and vinegar can mix, so I'm nervous about the fumes of acetone and bleach being around each other at the same time. I think I'll hold those experiments on separate days with excellent ventilation. )

Excellent demo -- thanks! I've used the burn test on thrifted yarns for years, but have only recently been focused on all-natural fibers for fabric, so this will be useful. Thanks for testing a wide range of fibers! (And for the tip about wearing polyester if using bleach... I - ahem - may have damaged a garment or six with bleach splashes.🙄)

Most fabrics these days are blends. How would that affect the tests? Thanks!
@CatherineSews
@CatherineSews 3 года назад
Blends are definitely tricky! But if you know the characteristics of the individual fibres you will have a pretty good idea of what's in the blend. For example, if you get a paper smell, but also has a hard bead on the edge, then poly/cotton blend is a good bet.
