That would make sense of the thread being larger than the 80/2 Brok
cotton!  Lorri, when you looked at it under magnification, is the FFR
thread fuzzy or smooth? and is the twist the same direction as the Brok
cotton? S or Z?   Is the cone cool to the touch when you pick it up?

To the experts out there, how does one differentiate between linen and
mercerized cotton on the cone?
