I carried a man's linen handkerchief in my back pocket until it wore through at the folds. Though it's of no further use for cleaning glasses, I hated to throw it out -- nobody pulls flax up by the roots these days, and if any of the machines that can spin line flax are still around, they are in museums.
Then I remembered that I know a few people who can put small bits of fine linen to good use. If you want it, send your snail address to joybee...@comcast.net.
