"Red... The color of desire!"

Would you believe it? My brother went fabric shopping yesterday! LOL He was asking me on Tuesday night if I had any red fabric he could have but the only thing I had was extra lining material which he said was too thin. So, he asked where he could buy some and I told him to go up to the fashion district.

So, after his photography class yesterday, he came home with this bag of red knit fabric. He was asking me for help cutting it last night since he wanted to make armbands like ones in some anime I’d never heard of. (Is it that hard to figure out how to cut a small rectangle of fabric? >_>) When I saw the piece, it seemed like a lot of fabric for 1 yard… Then, we picked it up and discovered it was a yard long piece in a tube shape. o_O Is this supposed to be a normal thing for knits? I usually buy woven stuff and had never seen fabric like that before. My brother was confused, too. “It didn’t look like this when the lady cut it.” XD;

Anyway, if he actually wants me to stitch these things up for him, he’d better get whatever writing was supposed to be on them done because I will not sew them at midnight. >_>;
