Is it too late to be interviewed?
I would be glad to answer questions from your audience.
Also - you should have a section called "Why You are Wrong" where you ask readers a question and then explain why every answer they offer is wrong.

Isn't fresco just a brand / trade name like crispaire, etc... ? All of them being hopsack woven wool cloths?Originally Posted by gdl203
AFAIK, "Fresco" is a brand name, but the general variety is a plain weave. A hopsack is a basket weave, e.g., 2x2 or 3x3, and can have interlacing to produce denser cloth or diagonal patterns like a twill.
This does not look like a hopsack to me:
